What comes up in Guildford

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.

Separating material on the block

Guildford blocks are wide enough to stockpile briefly, which is the difference between four clean streams and one expensive mixed one.

How it is handled
Concrete, brick, metal and timber kept apart as the structure comes down, then each loaded to its own destination.
What does it
Midi or large excavator with a grapple, and a sorting area set out before work starts.

Single storey brick and fibro knockdown

The dominant stock here, and the fibro is the reason sampling happens before the machine is booked.

How it is handled
Bonded material removed under licence and cleared, then the structure taken down in a single uninterrupted run.
What does it
Licensed asbestos removalists first, then an excavator with a grapple.

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.

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Single storey brick and fibro The dominant stock, and the fibro is the reason sampling comes first.
  • Wide blocks and good machine access Which usually means a midi or larger excavator can work, and the job is quicker for it.
  • Room to separate on site Concrete, brick, metal and timber kept apart rather than mixed, which lowers the disposal cost and raises the recycling rate.
  • Steady duplex activity Single dwelling blocks going to two, with the usual service and boundary work ahead of the knockdown.

Guildford streets and blocks are generally generous enough that the plant is chosen on what the job needs rather than on what fits. That also means material can be stockpiled briefly and loaded properly instead of being carted as it falls.

Guildford questions

What people ask before we start

Is it worth separating the material on site?
On a block with room, yes. Clean concrete and brick, scrap metal and clean timber all go to different places at different rates, and mixed waste is the most expensive stream there is.
Do you remove the slab and footings as well?
If that is what the new build needs. Sometimes a slab stays and is built over, and sometimes it all comes out. It is worth settling with the builder before the quote rather than after.
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.
