Our Residential Demolition Services

House Demolition

Safe removal of brick or weatherboard homes, with debris removed, final grading, and compaction, so your builder can begin without delay. We coordinate utilities and council requirements to keep everything on track.

Strip Outs

Targeted removals for renovations, including kitchens, bathrooms, non-structural walls, flooring, and ceilings. Clean and careful work that protects the structure you plan to keep.

Asbestos Testing and Safe Removal

Licensed assessment, sampling, removal, transport, and disposal with full clearance certificates provided. Clear communication at every step so you can be confident about safety and compliance.

Pool Removal

Removal of concrete or fibreglass pools, including equipment and fencing. The cavity is backfilled and compacted to specification to prevent future sinking and is ready for landscaping or new construction.

Our 4 Step Demolition Process

Site Inspection & Assessment

We visit your property to assess access, hazards (including potential asbestos), and the scope of work. You’ll receive a clear proposal with inclusions, exclusions, and an indicative timeline so you know exactly what’s involved.

Plan & Approvals

We create a tailored demolition plan, coordinate utility disconnections, and manage council permits and notifications. Safety, compliance, and neighbour considerations are built in from the start.

Safe Demolition & Recycling

Our team completes the demolition using proven methods and well‑maintained equipment. Materials are sorted on‑site—concrete, brick, steel, and timber are recycled wherever possible to minimise landfill and keep the job moving.

Cleanup, Handover & Certification

We complete final clean, levelling and compaction to spec, then provide your handover pack: waste tracking, compliance documents, and—where applicable—an asbestos clearance certificate. Your site is ready for the next phase.

Client Testimonials

“Wollongong City Demolition made our knock down rebuild a lot less stressful. They handled the approvals, kept the street tidy, and checked in every day with an update. The site was clean and ready for our builder ahead of schedule.”

— Melissa T., Corrimal

“We had asbestos in the eaves and an old pool to remove. The team explained everything clearly, turned up on time, and worked safely. The handover docs and clearance certificate made it easy to move to the next stage.”

— David R., Shellharbour

“Tight access and a sloped block had us worried, but these guys had a plan from day one. Good communication, no surprises, and the block was level and compacted just like our builder asked.”

— Priya K., Unanderra

Residential Demolition Wollongong FAQs

The physical teardown typically takes 3–5 working days, depending on access and site conditions. The overall timeline (including permits and utilities) varies; your quote includes a clear schedule.

If the home was built before 1990, asbestos is likely. We handle testing, licensed removal, transport, and disposal, and issue clearance certificates before work proceeds.

Concrete, brick, steel, and timber are sorted for recycling, and only non‑recyclables go to licensed facilities. It’s cleaner for the environment and often faster for the project.
