Homes in Fairfield City
Fairfield, Cabramatta, Canley Vale, Fairfield West and nearby suburbs have a lot of post-war fibro cottages and 1960s to 1980s brick homes. Bossley Park, Edensor Park and Bonnyrigg Heights followed later with larger brick homes on bigger blocks.
Many owners are now knocking down and rebuilding. Some build a big family home for several generations. Others build a duplex or add a granny flat. Either way, the old house and the backyard sheds need to go first.
Asbestos first
A pre-1990 house can hold asbestos, and Fairfield has plenty of them. In the older streets it is common in fibro walls, eaves, wet areas, vinyl floors and outbuildings. Licensed removalists take it off before demolition, and the place has to pass its clearance check before the machine goes in.
Industrial units in Smithfield and Wetherill Park
Smithfield and Wetherill Park are packed with warehouses, factory units and trade showrooms. Tenants come and go, and each change usually needs a strip-out. We take out office partitions, ceilings, mezzanine offices, racking fixings, old services and floor coverings, leaving the unit back to bare concrete, columns and services, or to the landlord's make good list.
Older industrial buildings may contain asbestos in wall and roof sheeting, so a hazardous materials survey comes first. We work around neighbouring units that are still trading, keep driveways clear for their trucks and stick to the agreed hours.
Shopfronts in Cabramatta and Fairfield
Busy shopping strips in Cabramatta and Fairfield see regular turnover. We strip out shop fit-outs, food kitchens, cool rooms and old counters, working early or late where the street and building allow, so neighbouring shops can keep trading.
House demolition and handover
As soon as the power, water and gas are cut, we bring the excavator in. Brick, concrete and steel are sorted for recycling, the slab and footings come out if needed, and the block is left clear for your builder.
Approvals
Many house demolitions in Fairfield City go through as Complying Development with a CDC, but some need a Development Application to council. Your planning certificate shows what applies.

Common questions
Do you strip out warehouses in Wetherill Park and Smithfield?
Yes. We strip offices, ceilings, mezzanines, old services and floor coverings back to bare concrete and columns, or to the landlord's make good list, working around neighbouring units.
Can older industrial units contain asbestos?
Yes. Buildings from before 1990 may have asbestos in wall and roof sheeting, floor tiles and around old plant. A hazardous materials survey before the strip-out tells you what is there.
Can you demolish a house in Cabramatta for a rebuild?
Yes. Asbestos is removed first and cleared, then the house is demolished, materials are sorted for recycling and the block is handed over ready for your builder.
Do you strip out shops in Cabramatta?
Yes. We strip shop fit-outs, kitchens and counters back to the shell, planning the work around trading hours and street access.
