Pro Demolition Melbourne

Demolition Melbourne

Licensed asbestos removal, house demolition, commercial demolition, site clearing and concrete waste disposal for Melbourne properties. One company manages the asbestos question before demolition starts, so the quote, sequence and handover are clear from day one.

Service overview

Demolition, asbestos and site clearing in one scope

Pro Demolition Melbourne helps homeowners, builders, project managers and commercial tenants clear sites without loose assumptions around asbestos, waste or handover condition.

Older Melbourne homes and commercial buildings often contain asbestos in fibre cement sheeting, eaves, roofing, vinyl flooring, wet areas, garages, fences and service areas. We plan that risk before machinery arrives, then sequence removal, demolition, disposal and site clearing around the agreed quote.

  • House demolition for knockdown rebuilds and unsafe dwellings
  • Commercial demolition, strip-outs and staged site works
  • Class B non-friable asbestos removal before disturbance
  • Concrete, rubble and demolition waste disposal
  • Clean, documented, builder-ready handover

Why it matters

Demolition should not stop because asbestos was missed

The quote looks simple

A contractor prices the demolition, but asbestos testing, removal, clearance and disposal were not properly allowed for.

The site stops

Fibre cement sheeting, old vinyl tiles, roofing or pipe lagging is noticed after work starts, so the sequence has to pause.

The builder waits

Separate contractors, revised documentation and new disposal requirements can push the timeline and budget out.

Licensed asbestos removal preparation before demolition in Melbourne

Asbestos-first process

Identify, test, remove, clear, demolish

We start where many demolition contractors stop: the asbestos question.

Before demolition work disturbs a structure, known or suspected asbestos-containing materials must be identified and managed. We review the age of the building, visible materials, site access and required handover condition, then arrange the right pathway for testing, Class B removal, disposal documentation and clearance before structural demolition begins.

  • Initial review of property type, age, photos and asbestos concerns
  • On-site inspection, demolition scope and access planning
  • NATA-accredited asbestos testing where required
  • WorkSafe Victoria Class B removal for eligible non-friable asbestos
  • EPA disposal documentation and clearance pathway
  • Demolition, waste separation, site clearing and clean handover

Process

One managed sequence from quote to handover

The job is planned around the full site condition, not just the structure coming down.

Site details

Send the property address, photos, structure type, access notes, timing and any known asbestos concerns.

Inspection and scope

We review access, services, neighbouring properties, council requirements, waste volume and handover condition.

Asbestos pathway

Suspect materials are tested or managed before disturbance, with Class B removal completed where required.

Permits and preparation

Permit, asset protection, service disconnection and site control requirements are clarified before work starts.

Demolition and disposal

The structure is demolished in a controlled sequence, with rubble, concrete, metal, timber and asbestos waste managed separately.

Clean handover

The site is cleared, levelled to the agreed condition, and handed over with relevant disposal or clearance documentation.

Quote factors

What affects the price

A fixed quote needs site-specific detail. Access, asbestos, concrete, permits and waste volume change the final number.

  • Structure size, storeys, construction type and structural complexity
  • Machine access, driveway width, loading area and street conditions
  • Distance to neighbouring buildings and required site controls
  • Asbestos testing, removal, disposal and clearance requirements
  • Concrete slabs, driveways, footings, pools, paths or hardstand removal
  • Council permits, asset protection and service disconnections

FAQ

Demolition Melbourne questions

Do I need asbestos testing before demolition in Melbourne?

If the building was constructed before 1990, asbestos testing is strongly recommended before demolition or renovation work disturbs suspect materials.

Can asbestos be removed before demolition?

Yes. Known or confirmed asbestos must be removed and cleared before demolition work that would disturb it can legally proceed.

How much does house demolition cost in Melbourne?

A standard single-storey house demolition often falls between $12,000 and $35,000+, while larger or complex properties can cost more.

Do I need a council permit for demolition?

Demolition in Melbourne usually requires council consent and a building permit. Asset protection, service disconnections and planning overlays may also apply.
