What comes up in Fairfield

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.

Demolition with no usable side access

Fairfield subdivisions are tight enough that the gap beside the house frequently rules out the machine that would otherwise do the work.

How it is handled
Taken down by hand or with a mini excavator, with material carried out to the kerb rather than loaded where it falls. Slower, and priced that way.
What does it
Hand tools, mini excavator, and tippers staged at the street.

Working around a protected tree

Mature plantings on older Fairfield blocks regularly carry protection, and that decides where plant can stand before anything else does.

How it is handled
Root zone kept clear of machines and stockpiles, with the demolition sequence planned around it rather than the tree worked around afterwards.
What does it
Smaller plant positioned outside the protection zone, with material moved by hand where needed.

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.

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Tight older subdivisions Narrow blocks with neighbours close, which frequently rules out the machine that would otherwise be used.
  • Shared boundary structures Fences, retaining and occasionally walls held in common, all of which have to be protected rather than pushed.
  • Established trees Mature plantings that often carry protection, and that is a planning item before it is a clearing one.
  • Pre 1990 stock With asbestos assumed until a sample says otherwise.

Fairfield is one of the suburbs where access is the first question rather than the last. Where a side gap will not take a machine, the work goes to a mini excavator or to hand demolition, with material carried out to the kerb. It is slower, it is priced accordingly, and it is often the only way the job can be done without damaging what stays.

What we do in Fairfield

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.

Fairfield questions

What people ask before we start

What is hand demolition and when do you need it?
It is demolition carried out with hand tools and small plant rather than an excavator, used where a machine cannot reach or where precision matters: internal walls, structures against a neighbouring building, or a block with no usable access.
There is a tree on the block that has to stay. Is that a problem?
No, but it has to be planned. A protected tree needs its root zone kept clear of plant and stockpiles, and that frequently decides where the machine can stand and how the material leaves.
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.
