Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The City of Barrie follows Ontario’s Building Code Act, where a building permit is needed for construction that is larger. Here are some common situations in which you would need a permit:

  • Constructing a New Building
  • Adding to an Existing Building (e.g., extending a kitchen, adding rooms)
  • Making Structural or Material Alterations (like removing load-bearing walls)
  • Constructing Certain Sheds: Any shed with an area of 15 m² (161 ft²) or more.
  • Building Larger Accessory Structures: Over 10 m² (107 ft²).
  • Finishing or Renovating Basements (if the work involves structural changes, new or modified heating/plumbing, foundation work, basement underpinning, adding a separate entrance, or adding a second suite).
  • Decks: Any deck more than 60 cm (24 in) above ground.
  • Retaining Walls: Over 1 m (3 ft 3 in) in height.
  • Demolishing or Removing All or Part of a Building
  • Installing or Reconstructing a Chimney or Fireplace
  • Installing a Wood-Burning Stove or Fireplace
  • Installing or Modifying Heating or Plumbing Systems
  • Installing a Backwater Valve or Backflow Prevention Device

Small projects like a shed might be allowed but make sure to check the City of Barrie’s restrictions and requirements on those. Bigger and more difficult projects like the removal of a building and its entirety need a licensed demolition contractor in Barrie.

In hiring a certified demolition company, you gain:

  • Proper Insurance: A licensed contractor will have CGL and WSIB, these will protect you and your property in case of accidents.
  • Certified Training & Tools: Licensed contractors use industry-certified tools and practice safety protocols to rid of any danger.
  • Efficiency & Compliance: Demolition contractors work fast and understand bylaws, permits, and debris disposal requirements.

In short, hiring a certified demolition company will guarantee your safety in tougher, larger demolition jobs.

A demolition contractor in Barrie needs a Commercial General Liability insurance policy in Ontario for coverage of:

  • Third-Party Injuries or Property Damage: Protection if the demolition operations result in injuries to people or harm any nearby properties.
  • On-Site Accidents: Coverage for injuries on business or residential premises.
  • Legal Costs: Support for defense and settlement if lawsuits arise from demolition operations.

Since demolition requires machinery and tools, it often comes with risks. That’s why it’s important to carry insurance and WSIB coverage as a contractor or property owner.

After demolition in Barrie, debris is typically sorted on-site and transported to recycling facilities, landfills, or specialized disposal sites. Common practices include:

  • Crushing concrete and asphalt to reuse as base materials.
  • Separating wood, metal, and drywall for recycling.
  • Disposing of hazardous materials like asbestos following strict provincial regulations.
  • Many contractors follow green demolition practices to maximize reuse and minimize landfill waste.

The City of Barrie encourages responsible disposal and recycling through local bylaws and environmental guidelines.

Yes, but with extra precautions. If the building is near Kempenfelt Bay, Lake Simcoe, or other waterways, contractors follow strict environmental rules to protect water quality and wildlife habitats.

Before demolition:

  • You may need permits from Kawartha Conservation or the Ministry of Natural Resources.
  • Respect the buffer zone between the site and the shoreline to prevent erosion or contamination.
  • Stormwater management plans are often required.
  • Any hazardous materials (like asbestos or lead paint) must be removed safely to avoid polluting nearby water

The City of Barrie and provincial agencies take these protections seriously. It’s important to work with an experienced contractor who understands local and environmental regulations.

Yes, tearing down industrial buildings in Barrie often requires special considerations, including:

  • Environmental assessments for hazardous materials like asbestos or PCBs (Polychlorinated Biphenyls: man-made organic chemicals used in various industrial applications)
  • Compliance with zoning and bylaws, especially in industrial zones like the Barrie Industrial Park
  • Coordination with utilities and potential site remediation

Always work with a trusted and licensed contractor familiar with Barrie’s regulations surrounding industrial buildings.

Yes, you must disconnect all utilities including electricity, gas, water, and sewage before starting demolition in Barrie. The city requires proof of disconnection as part of the permit process to gurantee safety and compliance.

These regulations are constantly changing, however, we make it a priority to check before starting a project.
