What comes up in Auburn

3 conditions, and each one is handled differently

Every site is scoped on the day. The table is what the work usually involves here rather than a statement about any particular property.

Single dwelling to duplex clearance

The commonest job in Auburn. One house, one driveway and one set of services on a block that is about to carry two dwellings.

How it is handled
Services disconnected and capped first, the house and any rear structures taken down, then the block left level and clear to the new boundary set out.
What does it
Midi excavator with a grapple, sized to the side gap rather than to the house.

Fibro behind brick veneer

Auburn stock frequently has original sheeting, eaves and wet area linings still in place behind later brick and render work.

How it is handled
Found by survey rather than by looking, removed under licence and independently cleared before the structure is touched.
What does it
Licensed asbestos removalists, then the machine once clearance is issued.

Freestanding houses

Single and double storey brick, brick veneer, fibro and timber. The era matters more than the material, because anything built before 1990 carries a hazardous materials assumption until it is tested.

How it is handled
Hazardous materials removed and cleared first, services disconnected in writing, then the structure taken down and the material separated as it falls.
What does it
Excavator with a demolition grapple, sized to the side access rather than to the house. Zero tail swing where the work runs hard against a boundary.

Auburn

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Pre 1990 stock, almost without exception Auburn filled out through the post-war decades, so bonded asbestos in eaves, sheeting, roofing and wet area linings has to be assumed until a sample says otherwise.
  • Duplex and multi dwelling conversion A large share of the work is a single dwelling block being turned into two or more, which puts services, boundaries and the approval ahead of the machine.
  • Narrow side access Regular blocks with a house already on them and a side gap that decides whether anything can reach the rear at all.
  • Industrial land close by Auburn sits against commercial and industrial pockets, so a factory strip out and a residential knockdown can be a few streets apart.

Most Auburn streets will take a 10 wheeler tipper without any trouble, and the arterials nearby mean a truck and dog is usually an option for volume. The constraint is almost always the block rather than the street: a side gap under about two and a half metres puts the job onto a smaller machine, and that changes the programme more than the structure does.

What we do in Auburn

Five service groups, one contract

Most jobs need more than one of these. Quoted together they share a mobilisation, a programme and one set of truck movements instead of three contractors waiting on each other.

The consent authority for the property sets the conditions, the hours and the notification requirements, and the service disconnections sit with the authorities rather than with us.

Auburn questions

What people ask before we start

Can you demolish one half of a duplex in Auburn?
Yes, and it is a different job from a full knockdown. A shared wall has to be supported, weatherproofed and left in a condition the neighbouring dwelling can live with, which is usually hand demolition at the junction rather than machine work.
There is fibro in the eaves and the bathroom. Is that one job or two?
One. The bonded material comes off under licensed removal before the structure is touched, with clearance before demolition starts. It is quoted as a single pathway rather than two separate trades.
Do you charge travel to come out to Western Sydney?
No. Western Sydney is one of the two areas we are in most weeks, so there is no travel loading on work here and a site visit is usually easy to arrange.
Is Max licensed for the asbestos removal itself?
Max holds the demolition licence, AD214737. The asbestos removal is carried out by licensed asbestos removalists, and the air monitoring and clearance by an independent licensed assessor. The whole pathway is managed as one job so you are not coordinating three contractors.
