You know exactly what's included before you say yes.
Demolition in Richmond takes careful planning. Narrow lanes, terraces with shared walls and busy streets all affect how a job is run.
Much of Richmond is covered by heritage overlays, so many projects are partial demolitions that keep the street-facing part of a terrace or cottage. We also handle commercial strip-outs and demolitions in Richmond and Cremorne's mixed-use areas.
What we demolish in Richmond
- Partial demolition of terraces and cottages behind the retained facade
- Party wall work with protection for the house next door
- Commercial strip-outs in Richmond and Cremorne mixed-use buildings
- Rear lane garages and outbuildings
Working in the City of Yarra
Richmond falls under the City of Yarra, where heritage overlays cover much of the suburb. Most of our Richmond work is accessed from narrow streets or rear laneways, so we plan bin placement, traffic management and neighbour notices before work starts.
We also work in nearby suburbs including Cremorne, Abbotsford, Collingwood, Burnley, Hawthorn and South Yarra, and across greater Melbourne.
Richmond and nearby suburbs
From our Campbellfield yard we cover Richmond and nearby Cremorne, Abbotsford, Burnley and Hawthorn, plus all of Metropolitan Melbourne and the majority of Victoria.
Can you demolish next to a shared wall in Richmond?
Yes. Party wall work is common in Richmond. We separate the structures carefully, often by hand, and protect and weatherproof the neighbouring wall.
Do I need a planning permit to demolish in Richmond?
Much of Richmond is under a heritage overlay, which usually means a planning permit from the City of Yarra before demolition. We check this before quoting.
How long does a house demolition take?
Obtaining a demolition permit can take up to 4 weeks, or 6 weeks if protection works are required. If other council requirements are involved, such as laneway or footpath closures, this can take 8 to 10 weeks. The demolition itself usually takes 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the size of your project.
Do I need a permit to demolish my house?
In most cases, yes. We apply for the relevant permit for you.
What about asbestos?
Visual asbestos is identified during the quoting process. Before demolition works commence, the asbestos is safely removed.
Do you also supply skip bins?
Yes. Demolition and skip bins come from one team. We organise skip bins throughout your project, and this is included in the removal and disposal of materials from your site.
How much does a demolition cost?
It depends on the size, materials, access and any asbestos. Get a free itemised quote and you'll know exactly what's included.
