House demolition in GranvilleA clear scope
for the whole house.
Three decisions set the scope and the price. We agree each one with you in writing before the work is booked.
The house and its materials
The agreed roof, walls, frame, fixtures and fittings come down in a planned order. Demolition material is sorted and removed from the site.
What stays on the block
Identify fences, trees, driveways and neighbouring structures to protect. Attached, semi-detached or partly retained buildings need a site-specific assessment.
The finish for your builder
Agree whether slabs and footings stay or come out. Asbestos, concrete removal and any excavation are separately assessed and priced.

Good work.
In their words.
An excellent choice for asbestos removal and demolition of our house. Explained the whole process clearly and helped organise electrical disconnection and tree removal.
Very professional, considerate of our neighbours, and very efficient. The house was down in just over a week.
Just had my house, garage and 3 trees demolished… The builder was very impressed with the cleared block which is on a slope with difficult access.

the price?
House size and materials, truck access, asbestos and the agreed finish change the price. Tell us about anything attached to the house and what your builder needs next.

Your property in GranvilleBefore work
starts.
Confirm the demolition approval and any conditions for trees, neighbouring structures, work hours and material removal before booking the work.
Check the heritage listing and the area
Cumberland lists its heritage items in its local plan, and demolishing one needs approval. Its conservation areas include houses that matter to the area and houses that don’t, so your address decides what applies.
Check your address on the NSW Planning Portal (opens in a new tab) Heritage in Cumberland (opens in a new tab)Permits for skips, fencing and trucks
Cumberland needs a permit for a skip on the road, another to fence off part of a road or footpath, and a hoarding permit for temporary fencing on a footpath. A works zone for trucks is a separate application.
Cumberland works within roads and footpaths (opens in a new tab)Council guidance checked 2 October 2026. These are matters to check, not a determination for an individual address. Your council or certifier confirms what applies.
How a house demolition runsFrom enquiry
to handover.
Three stages, in the order they happen. Who arranges each item is agreed before the job is booked.
- 01
Assess and agree
We review the house, access and retained features, then set out the scope, responsibilities and price.
- 02
Prepare before demolition
Confirm approvals and disconnections, protect the site and arrange any asbestos removal and independent clearance before the main work.
- 03
Remove and hand over
Take down the agreed structure, sort and remove material, then check the cleared footprint against the agreed finish.
Allow 2–4 weeks for the demolition stage, including disconnections and any asbestos removal; machine work on a single-storey house typically takes 2–5 days. We confirm the timing for your job with the quote.
Read the process guideDoes the price include asbestos, slabs and footings?
No. The indicative house bands cover the detached-house structure with reasonable access. Asbestos, slabs and footings, pools, trees, excavation, approvals, disconnections and difficult access are priced separately. Your written quote confirms the complete scope.
Can you demolish an attached or semi-detached house?
It needs a site-specific assessment. The connection to the retained building, structural support and any approval or engineering requirements must be confirmed before agreeing the work.
How long does house demolition take?
Typical machine work on a single-storey house takes 2–5 days after preparation. The broader demolition stage commonly takes 2–4 weeks, including disconnections and any asbestos removal. Approvals, provider lead times, weather and site conditions can extend the programme.
Who arranges approvals and disconnections?
You and your builder confirm the plans and handover needed. We can coordinate approvals, utility disconnections, asbestos removal and clearance as part of the job. We agree who books and pays for each item before work is booked.
