Demolition Concord West

Ask what a demolition in Concord West involves and the answer starts at your block, not at the suburb name. Super Demolition works here under a current Demolition Licence and a current Asbestos Removal Licence: full house knockdowns, partial demolition, pool and slab removal, tenancy strip-outs and licensed asbestos removal. The suburb is postcode 2138, and the City of Canada Bay assesses every address in it.

Nothing is charged for the site visit or the written quote, and enquiries are answered within 24 hours. Call 0455 888 819 with the street number and we will book a time.

Most of what comes down here is a house, not a landmark

One Concord West demolition dwarfs the rest. The NSW Planning Portal’s major projects register carries a file for 1 King Street covering demolition, remediation and associated works. It is a State significant application, so the council does not determine it, and it is somebody else’s project, not ours.

In the Planning Portal’s demolition records for the City of Canada Bay, Concord West carries 86 complying development certificates and 60 development applications. Fifteen of them sit on Queen Street alone. Knockdowns are routine here, and yours has likely been done nearby.

What separates the certificate files from the council files here

Two routes exist in New South Wales and only one involves the council. A complying development certificate comes from a private certifier working to a fixed state code, and nothing in it is judged: the land and the proposal clear every standard, or the route shuts. Everything else becomes a development application, which the City of Canada Bay weighs up itself, notifies where its controls require, and can condition or turn down.

Which one you land on is mostly a question of scope, and this suburb’s record shows where the line falls. Subdivision is the clearest divider: fourteen of the council files bundle one in, against nine of the certificates. Dual occupancy appears on both routes in similar numbers, so planning a duplex settles nothing. Zoning and any mapping over your lot come first, and we check those before anything is lodged.

30+Years Experience

Super Demolition, and why we would rather be checked than believed

Jack owns the business and normally does the site visit himself. Super Demolition is family owned and managed, with over 30 years behind the work. The rating stands at 5.0 across 84 reviews. Years in the trade are the easiest thing to print and hardest to test, so ask us, and anyone else quoting you, for:

  • A current Demolition Licence and a current Asbestos Removal Licence
  • Confirmation that staff and contractors comply with WorkCover requirements to AS 2601-2001

Full credentials sit with our residential demolition service.

Duplex sites, single knockdowns, and the work inside a tenancy

A full knockdown takes the house, garage, shed, paving, fencing, footings and slab, and hands back a block your builder can set out on. Where two dwellings are going back up, the demolition is identical; only the paperwork beside it changes. Plenty of the work is smaller: a pool, a slab, a deck, a retaining wall or a secondary dwelling, alone or with the excavation for what replaces it. Work inside a shop, an office or a unit is a strip-out, which is our commercial demolition service.

If asbestos turns up once the linings are off, it is not a second contract with a second contractor. It comes out under our own licence to an approved facility, and our asbestos removal service sets out how it is cleared.

The jobs we do at a desk before the ones we do on the block

  • The development application to the City of Canada Bay, or the certificate through a private certifier
  • Council notification, and written notice to the neighbours entitled to it
  • WorkCover approval and a Work Method Statement for your address
  • Dial Before You Dig plans before anything breaks ground
  • Electrical, gas and phone or internet disconnections
  • Asbestos removed under licence, with EPA approved NSW disposal and recycling
  • The demolition clearance certificate once the site is signed off

Why two knockdowns on the same street are priced differently

Queen Street carries more certificates than any street here, and no two of those houses were the same job. What the building is made of, what is behind the linings, how plant reaches the back and how much material leaves all move the number, none of it readable off a street name.

So somebody stands on the block first and the price follows. The written quote itemises the works, the approvals and the disposal, and that figure is what you pay: no hidden fees and no variations. Holding a written quote from another contractor? Show us and we will beat it.

Three places on the same postcode

We take demolition, excavation and asbestos work across Inner West Sydney. These three share Concord West’s postcode and council:

Asked most often on Concord West jobs

There is a granny flat at the back as well as the house. Is that one job or two?

One, on the record here. A secondary dwelling normally sits inside the same demolition file as the house rather than beside it, and on site it is one crew either way. What matters is that the approval names it, so we confirm scope in writing before plant is booked.

We want to clear the block now and build later. Does that cause a problem?

Not in itself. Standalone demolition is well established here: a good share of the certificates on this suburb’s record cover the demolition and nothing else. Where yours sits inside an approval covering the new house too, taking one without the other has to be checked first. We read what was approved, not what was intended.

A couple of the council files here were determined by the Land and Environment Court. Does that happen often?

No. Almost every council file on this suburb’s record was settled by the council itself. An appeal follows a refusal or a stalled decision, not an ordinary knockdown. Staying clear of it means lodging on the route the land supports, with the documents it asks for, which is our end of the job.

Our address is Concord West but half our mail says Concord. Does the difference reach the paperwork?

It reaches the record rather than the decision. They are separate localities on separate postcodes, Concord West on 2138 and Concord on 2137, and the Planning Portal files them apart. A certificate somebody showed you for a house in Concord may therefore sit on a different postcode and a different pattern of streets. The City of Canada Bay assesses both, so who decides does not change; what changes is which records are comparable.
