Demolition Contractor Canada Bay

Direct Demolition provides demolition, excavation and asbestos removal services across Canada Bay and the surrounding Inner West area. The City of Canada Bay LGA covers waterfront suburbs like Concord, Drummoyne and Five Dock — demolition here is dominated by knockdown-rebuilds on premium riverside blocks. We're a family-owned Sydney demolition contractor with our own equipment — 3 excavators and 2 hook-lift trucks — which means sharp pricing, fast mobilisation and no subcontractor markup on your Canada Bay job.

Demolition Services in Canada Bay

Whether you need a full house knockdown in Canada Bay, a partial demolition, a garage or pool removal, or an internal strip-out before renovation, Direct Demolition handles the whole scope in-house. We work with homeowners, builders and developers across Canada Bay regularly and understand what City of Canada Bay looks for in a demolition submission.

House Knockdowns in Canada Bay

Knockdown-rebuild jobs are the bread and butter of our Canada Bay work. If you're planning to knock down your existing home and build new, we'll demolish the structure, remove the slab if required, cart away all debris and deliver a clean, level site ready for your builder. Most Canada Bay single-storey knockdowns take 5–10 working days start to finish; double-storey homes 10–15 working days.

Excavation in Canada Bay

We carry out bulk excavation for new home builds, extensions, basement digs, pool excavations and civil works in Canada Bay. Our excavators are already working across Inner West, which means fast mobilisation and competitive pricing on your Canada Bay excavation project. Rock, tight access, sloping sites — we've done all of it.

Asbestos Removal in Canada Bay

Many Canada Bay homes built before 1990 contain bonded asbestos in fibro cladding, roofing, eaves, wet-area sheeting and vinyl floor tiles. We are NSW Asbestos Class B licensed (AD214613) and remove bonded asbestos in-house across Canada Bay — either as part of a full demolition or as a stand-alone job. All work is compliant with SafeWork NSW notification, control and clearance requirements.

Strip-Outs & Partial Demolition in Canada Bay

Renovating rather than rebuilding? We handle internal strip-outs in Canada Bay — kitchens, bathrooms, walls, ceilings, floors and services. Everything comes out clean, everything gets tracked, and we hand the shell back to your builder ready for the new fit-out.

Pool Removal in Canada Bay

In-ground concrete and fibreglass pool removal across Canada Bay. We break out the shell, cart away the spoil, and backfill and compact the void ready for landscaping or a new build. Typical Canada Bay backyard pools take 2–4 working days.

Nearby Areas We Also Serve

Working in Canada Bay, we also regularly cover Concord, Drummoyne, Five Dock, Cabarita, Rhodes and the wider Inner West area.

Do you handle asbestos removal in Canada Bay?

Yes. We hold NSW Asbestos Class B licence AD214613 and handle bonded asbestos in-house across Canada Bay — assessment, licensed removal, disposal at SafeWork NSW-approved facilities, and clearance certificates. Friable (Class A) asbestos is coordinated with licensed partners.

How long does a demolition take in Canada Bay?

A standard single-storey knockdown in Canada Bay takes 5–10 working days from start to a clean level pad. Double-storey homes are typically 10–15 working days. Timing includes SafeWork NSW notifications (5+ working days for asbestos work) and neighbour notifications required by City of Canada Bay.

Do I need council approval to demolish in Canada Bay?

Most Canada Bay demolitions need either a Complying Development Certificate (CDC) via a private certifier or a Development Application (DA) via City of Canada Bay. Heritage-listed properties and sites in conservation areas usually require a DA. We can point you to the right pathway before you commit.

Are you licensed and insured for work in Canada Bay?

NSW Demolition Licence AD214611, Asbestos Class B AD214613, $20M public liability, Workers Compensation, and plant insurance. Certificates on request. All work performed by our own crew with our own excavators and hook-lift trucks.

Can you demolish two-storey homes in Canada Bay?

Yes — up to 15 metres in height, which covers the vast majority of two-storey homes in Canada Bay. Anything above 15m (large apartment blocks, tall commercial) we refer to a specialist high-reach contractor. For everything else we use our own 20-tonne excavator with a demo attachment.
