What comes up in Burwood

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.

Semi or terrace with a shared wall

The defining Burwood job, where what stays up matters as much as what comes down.

How it is handled
Party wall propped and supported, hand demolition at the junction, then the wall made weatherproof and left in a condition the neighbour can live with.
What does it
Hand tools and small plant at the boundary, with propping designed before work starts.

Walk up block ahead of a basement

Redevelopment near the centre, where the structure comes down and a basement goes in.

How it is handled
Survey, disconnections in writing, soft strip, the structure in stages behind hoarding, then the dig planned as part of the same contract.
What does it
Mid sized excavator where there is room, bogie tippers where a truck and dog cannot stand.

Attached and shared structures

Semis, terraces, duplexes and shopfronts joined to something that stays standing. The job is as much about what is retained as what is removed.

How it is handled
Propping and support to the retained side, hand demolition at the junction, then the wall made weatherproof and left in a condition the neighbour can live with.
What does it
Hand tools and small plant at the junction, with a machine used only where it is safe to do so.

Burwood

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Dense older stock Semis, terraces and narrow blocks where the structure is frequently attached to something that stays standing.
  • Apartment redevelopment pressure Around the centre, which brings unit block demolition and basement excavation rather than single knockdowns.
  • Street parking pressure Which decides what vehicle can stand and whether traffic management is needed before anything starts.
  • Heritage controls in pockets Worth resolving before a scope is written rather than after.

In Burwood the street is usually the constraint. Where a truck cannot legally stand, material goes out in smaller vehicles staged against the machine, and traffic management is arranged as part of the job rather than added later.

What we do in Burwood

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.

Burwood questions

What people ask before we start

Can you demolish a semi without damaging the one next door?
That is partial demolition and it is routine work. The party wall is propped, the roof junction detailed and the wall left weatherproof, with the demolition at the boundary done by hand rather than with a machine.
There is nowhere for a truck to park. What then?
It is worked out before the quote. Traffic management and a standing permit are arranged where they are needed, and where nothing can stand the material goes out in smaller loads sequenced against the machine.
Can you demolish a semi or a terrace without damaging the one next door?
That is partial demolition and it is routine work. The party wall is propped, the roof junction detailed and the wall left weatherproof. The demolition at the boundary is done by hand rather than with a machine.
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.
