What comes up in Rockdale

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.

Internal strip out ahead of a fit out

Common in the commercial stock here, where the building stays and the inside comes out.

How it is handled
Hazardous materials cleared first, structural elements identified, then removal by hand with material carried out and loaded at the kerb.
What does it
Hand tools and small plant only, tippers staged at the street.

Knockdown on a constrained street

Where the street rather than the building decides the method.

How it is handled
Traffic management arranged first, then material out in loads sequenced against the machine.
What does it
Midi excavator, 10 wheeler tippers rather than a truck and dog.

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

  • Older stock on narrow streets Where the frontage and the parked cars set the logistics.
  • Mixed residential and commercial With attached frontages that make partial and hand demolition routine.
  • Low lying ground in parts Which affects drainage, how spoil behaves after rain and what an excavation finds.
  • Redevelopment around the station Bringing walk up demolition alongside ordinary knockdowns.

Rockdale streets near the station are busy and narrow, so truck standing is arranged rather than assumed and a truck and dog is frequently not an option. Further out the blocks are more generous and a machine can usually reach the rear.

What we do in Rockdale

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.

Nearby areas we service include Hurstville, Kogarah. This location forms part of our wider St George and Sutherland coverage.

Rockdale questions

What people ask before we start

Does low lying ground affect a demolition?
Less than it affects what follows it. Drainage and soft ground change where plant can track and how material is loaded, and they matter a great deal to an excavation even where the demolition is straightforward.
Can you take out internal walls without touching the rest?
Yes. Internal strip out is a job in its own right: hazardous materials cleared first, structural elements identified, then the removal done by hand so nothing retained is disturbed.
Do you demolish unit blocks as well as houses?
Yes. Walk ups and unit blocks are part of the licensed work and they run as a planned sequence: a full hazardous materials survey, written confirmation of service disconnections, a soft strip, then the structure taken down in stages.
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.
