What comes up in Parramatta

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.

Walk up unit block removal

Parramatta redevelopment usually starts with three or four storeys of brick and concrete rather than a house.

How it is handled
Full hazardous materials survey, disconnections confirmed in writing, soft strip, then the structure down in planned stages.
What does it
Large excavator with a grapple, hoarding and traffic management, truck and dogs where they can stand.

Demolition straight into a basement dig

On most Parramatta sites something goes down and then a basement goes in, and the two are better planned as one sequence.

How it is handled
The batter, the shoring and the truck movements worked out once, with no handover halfway through the job.
What does it
The same machine and the same trucks, with the attachment changed as the work changes.

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.

Parramatta

What shapes the work on these blocks

  • Redevelopment scale rather than single knockdowns Walk ups, unit blocks and commercial sites, where the programme and the staging matter as much as the plant.
  • Dense surroundings Neighbouring buildings close, footpaths in use, and hoarding, scaffolding and traffic management as part of the job rather than extras.
  • Basements under what comes down A lot of Parramatta demolition is followed by a basement dig, so the demolition and the excavation are better planned as one sequence.
  • Service disconnections on the critical path On multi dwelling sites the disconnections are usually the longest lead item, and they are started early for that reason.

Central Parramatta streets rarely offer a laydown area, so spoil leaves as it is generated and the trucks are sequenced against the machine. Where a truck and dog cannot stand or turn, the same volume goes out in considerably more tipper loads, and that is a real difference to the programme rather than a rounding error.

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.

Nearby areas we service include Auburn, Granville, Guildford, Lidcombe, Merrylands. This location forms part of our wider Western Sydney coverage.

Parramatta questions

What people ask before we start

Do you demolish unit blocks in Parramatta?
Yes. Walk ups and unit blocks are part of the licensed work, and they run differently from a house: a full hazardous materials survey, service disconnections confirmed in writing, a soft strip, then the structure taken down in a planned sequence with the material separated for recycling.
Can the demolition and the basement excavation be one contract?
Yes, and on a Parramatta site that is usually the better way to do it. One contractor means the shoring, the batter and the truck movements are planned once rather than handed over halfway through.
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.
