What comes up in Granville

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.

One shop out of a row

Granville commercial frontages are joined on both sides, so the job is defined by what has to stay standing and weatherproof.

How it is handled
Party walls propped, the roof junction detailed, then demolition by hand at the boundary and by machine only where it is safe.
What does it
Hand tools and small plant at the junctions, with propping designed before work starts.

Mixed use frontage with residential behind

Shop at the front, dwelling behind, which changes the hours, the hoarding and the traffic management rather than the structure.

How it is handled
Sequenced so the public footpath and the neighbouring tenancies stay usable, with hoarding and dust control in place first.
What does it
Smaller machines working off the footprint, material carried out to the kerb.

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.

Granville

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Attached structures Older commercial frontages joined on both sides, where the job is as much about what stays up as what comes down.
  • Mixed use in one street Residential behind, commercial in front, which changes the hours, the hoarding and the traffic management.
  • Pre 1990 stock throughout Both the housing and the older commercial buildings sit in the window where asbestos has to be assumed until tested.
  • Rail corridor and main road frontages Which can bring additional requirements into the planning before any machine arrives.

Granville has good arterial access but tight commercial frontages, and on a shop demolition the usable working area is often just the footprint. That pushes the work towards smaller machines, hand demolition at the party walls, and material carried out rather than loaded where it falls.

Granville questions

What people ask before we start

Can you take down one shop in a row without touching the others?
That is partial demolition, and it is routine work. The party walls are propped and made weatherproof, the roof junction is detailed, and the demolition at the boundary is done by hand rather than with a machine.
Is there much asbestos in older Granville commercial buildings?
Frequently, and in places people do not expect: roof sheeting, flues, backing boards behind switchboards, vinyl floor tiles and the adhesive under them. A survey before the scope is written is the only way to price it properly.
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.
