What comes up in Castle Hill

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.

Knockdown with protected trees on the block

The Castle Hill job in a sentence: a generous block, a straightforward structure and a tree that sets the method.

How it is handled
Protection zones established first, the demolition sequenced around them, and material moved by hand where plant cannot go.
What does it
Midi excavator positioned outside the protection zone, with hand work close in.

Site cut into the fall

What usually follows the knockdown, because very few blocks here are flat.

How it is handled
Benched from the high side to the engineer levels, with the spoil classified once and carted on the same contract.
What does it
Midi to large excavator, truck and dog where the street allows it.

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.

Castle Hill

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Large blocks with generous setbacks Which usually means a machine can get where it needs to and there is room to separate material on site.
  • Mature plantings Significant trees on many of the older properties, and tree approval is routinely the longest item on a clearing programme.
  • A fall across many blocks Bringing site cut, benching and sometimes retaining into the scope.
  • Knockdown rebuild and dual occupancy The dominant job types, usually with a site cut straight after the knockdown.

Castle Hill blocks are generous enough that plant is chosen for the work rather than for the gap, and most streets will take a truck and dog. The constraint is more often a protected tree: its root zone has to stay clear of machines and stockpiles, and that decides where everything else goes.

Castle Hill questions

What people ask before we start

There is a large tree we have to keep. How does that work?
Its root zone is kept clear of plant and stockpiles, which frequently decides where the machine can stand and how material leaves the block. It is planned into the sequence rather than worked around on the day.
Is the site cut part of the demolition contract?
On a sloping block it usually should be. The same machine and trucks are already there, the classification is already settled, and there is no handover in the middle of the job.
Most of these blocks slope. Does that change the scope?
Usually yes. A fall across the block brings site cut, benching and sometimes retaining into a scope that would be flat work elsewhere, and it sets where a machine can safely stand while it works.
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.
