A lot of demolition in Greenwich is not a clean sweep of the block. The suburb sits inside postcode 2065, shared with St Leonards, Crows Nest, Naremburn and Wollstonecraft, and Lane Cove Municipal Council assesses the work. What separates a job here is scope rather than jurisdiction: something usually stays standing while the rest comes out, and that decides the method, the sequence and the approval.
Super Demolition is a licensed demolition contractor working in Greenwich, in the Lane Cove Municipal Council area. We take down houses, garages, sheds and pools, strip out shops and offices, remove asbestos under licence and clear sites for rebuilding. We hold a Demolition Licence and an Asbestos Removal Licence and work to Australian Standard 2601-2001. Site assessments and written quotes are free.
The largest current job in the suburb is the HammondCare redevelopment of Greenwich Hospital, where the existing hospital buildings are coming down while Pallister House is retained and renovated. Neither that project nor the two below are ours; they are the public record of what demolition here looks like.
The same shape turns up on smaller sites. At 2 Greenwich Road the building was taken down from the top rather than pulled in from the side. At 178 Pacific Highway the scope was demolition and remediation together, because what was left in the ground mattered as much as what stood on it.
Retention changes a job more than size does. Anything staying is propped and protected while everything around it goes, services running through both halves separated first, cut lines set before a machine turns up. Staged work of that kind runs through our commercial demolition service.
Jack owns the business and is usually the person who meets you on the block, with over 30 years of demolition behind him. The company is family owned and managed, and carries a 5.0 rating across 84 reviews.
Worth asking any demolisher to produce before you sign:

Mapped conservation area covers just 2.8% of Lane Cove Council’s land area, one of the smallest shares among the Sydney councils measured. Heritage mapping closes off the certifier route here far less often than in the heavily mapped councils nearby.
Even so, demolition here still leans on council assessment. Complying development certificates make up 37.5% of demolition approvals, comfortably under half, and 87.7% of those certificates are issued by a private certifier rather than the council.
The figure worth planning around is a different one. Roughly 30.9% of demolition-worded applications in Lane Cove are modifications of consents already granted, not fresh proposals. Plans get changed after approval here more often than almost anywhere else measured.
NSW gives a demolition two doors. A Complying Development Certificate is issued by an accredited private certifier against a fixed code: meet every standard and it can issue, with nothing weighed on merit. A Development Application goes to Lane Cove Municipal Council, which assesses the proposal on merit, notifies neighbours where the controls require it, and can approve with conditions or refuse.
The land and the scope decide, never preference. Zoning, heritage listing and conservation mapping open or close the certificate route, and scope counts just as heavily. A standalone knockdown commonly qualifies; partial demolition, or anything staged around a structure that stays, usually goes to merit assessment.
The part owners are otherwise left chasing. We run it:
Nobody can price this down the phone, and on a partial job that goes double. What moves the number is what the building is made of, whether asbestos is present, how machines reach the site, how much has to be held up while the rest comes out, and how much material leaves.
So we look first and then put it in writing. The quote itemises the work, the approvals and the disposal, with no hidden fees and no variations later. If you already hold a written quote from another contractor, we will beat it.

HammondCare is redeveloping the site. Demolition of the existing hospital buildings is underway, Pallister House is being kept and renovated rather than knocked down, and hospital services have moved temporarily to North Sydney.
It has not been, and the results answering that question describe a different place: the Greenwich District Hospital in London, taken down years ago. Sydney’s Greenwich Hospital is a separate institution on the other side of the world, and its buildings are coming down now, in stages.
Not something anyone can answer honestly without standing on the block. Structure, asbestos, access, retention and disposal all pull the figure around, and two houses with the same footprint can land nowhere near each other. The visit and the written quote are free.
Yes, and in Greenwich it is routine. It is a different job from a full knockdown: the retained portion has to be propped and weatherproofed, and the line between gone and staying decided on paper first. Tell us what stays and we sequence the work around it.

Greenwich rarely asks for a whole block emptied in one pass. Usually something is meant to survive it: a wall, a wing, a basement, a building somebody has decided is worth keeping. Tell us which part that is and what you want gone, and we will walk it and build the sequence around what stays. Call 0455 888 819 or email info@superdemolition.com.au.
