What comes up in Lindfield

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.

Dig where the ground changes partway down

The characteristic Lindfield excavation: clay to begin with, rock once the face goes deeper.

How it is handled
Method reassessed as the dig goes down rather than assumed from the top, with rock priced by the cubic metre at an agreed rate.
What does it
Large excavator with both a toothed bucket and a hydraulic hammer on hand.

Demolition on a deep falling block

Where the structure is straightforward and getting the material back up to the street is not.

How it is handled
Sequenced so material moves up the block in planned stages rather than accumulating at the bottom.
What does it
Tracked machine able to work on a grade, tippers staged at the street.

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.

Lindfield

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Deep blocks falling into gullies The reason two nearby blocks can be completely different digs.
  • Shale on the ridge, sandstone below The Wianamatta Group forms the ridges along this corridor, with Hawkesbury Sandstone exposed where the ground falls away.
  • Mature plantings With protection that decides the working area and the route material takes out.
  • Substantial older houses Large structures on generous lots, mostly pre 1990.

Lindfield access is usually fine at the street and difficult at the back. A long deep block that falls away means material has to come up rather than out, which is slower and frequently decides the machine before the structure does.

What we do in Lindfield

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.

Lindfield questions

What people ask before we start

Why can two nearby blocks be such different digs?
Because the ridge is shale and the gullies are sandstone. A block on the ridge is usually in clay rich shale derived soil; one falling into a gully is as likely to be in rock. It is not something that can be judged from the street.
Do you need a geotechnical report?
Not to start, but it is worth more here than almost anywhere. Without one the rock is priced on a rate; with one the range narrows a long way and the price follows.
Why can two nearby blocks be completely different digs?
Because the Wianamatta Group forms the ridges along the highway corridor while Hawkesbury Sandstone is exposed in the gullies between them. A block on the ridge is usually in shale derived clay; one falling into a gully is as likely to be in sandstone.
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.
