    WHO HANDLES WHAT BEFORE WORK BEGINS?

    Demolition requires clear coordination between you and our site team. Here is how we break down project responsibilities to guarantee a smooth, safe start:

    What You (Or Your Builder) Provide:

    • A complying Development Certificate (CDC) or Development Application (DA) approval from Shellharbour City Council.
    • Service cancellation letters from utility providers confirming live power, gas, and water have been disconnected.

    What Shellharbour Demolition Manages:

    • SafeWork NSW Demolition Notifications submitted at least 5 days prior to site setup.
    • Hazardous materials inspections and independent Occupational Hygienist Clearance Certificates.
    • Asset protection, temporary perimeter fencing, and dust control setup.

      Complete site clearance sign-off documentation handed over to your builder.

    LOCAL RECYCLING & ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

    We sort materials directly on-site to reduce tip costs and keep reusable building supplies out of local landfills.

    CONCRETE, BRICK & MASONRY

    Taken to Benedict in Unanderra or SCE in Warrawong for crushing into recycled road base.

    STRUCTURAL STEEL & METALS

    Separated on site using excavator attachments and sent directly to local scrap processors.

    FRAMING & TIMBER

    Pulled and sorted on site to eliminate bulk mixed-waste surcharges at local transfer stations.

    ASBESTOS & HAZARDOUS WASTE

    Double-wrapped, sealed, and transported under strict EPA manifest tracking to licensed facilities.

    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    You should book 2 to 3 weeks prior to your target start date. SafeWork NSW requires a mandatory 5-day notification before any structural demolition or asbestos removal can begin on site.

    The property owner or builder usually arranges the disconnection of electricity, gas, and water meters through their service providers. We verify that all services are fully isolated and capped at the boundary before machinery arrives.

    Yes. You need either a Development Application (DA) from Shellharbour City Council or a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) through a private certifier before any structural knockdown can proceed.

    A typical single-story home knockdown in the Illawarra takes 2 to 4 days. This includes asset protection setup, hazardous material removal, structural teardown, slab lifting, and final site levelling.

    We provide a final site clearance certificate, independent asbestos clearance reports, and EPA waste tracking receipts confirming all materials were disposed of legally.

    No. Backed by 20+ years of local demolition experience, we know how to work safely on tight Illawarra boundary lines. We conduct pre-demolition dilapidation reports and use precise excavator attachments, vibration controls, and dust suppression to protect surrounding structures.
