House Demolition
Full knockdown of an existing house down to a cleared, level block, ready for your new build.

Everything from a full house to a single slab — and in every case, the point is the same: a clean, level block at the end.
The housing stock here has its own habits. Halls Head and Silver Sands still carry beach shacks and 1970s fibro that almost certainly contain asbestos sheeting. Coodanup and Greenfields are full of brick-and-tile from the 1980s sitting on big, subdividable blocks. Pinjarra has rural lots with fifty years of sheds on them, and the canal estates have tight access and neighbours close enough to hear a hammer drop.
A quote that ignores those things drifts. A quote that starts with them holds.
A walk-through first, then a fixed written price covering demolition, tip fees and clearing — no add-ons appearing once the machine is on site. Permits and service disconnections get sequenced before demolition day. Anything suspect gets tested before it gets touched. Then the structure comes down, the waste is sorted and carted, and the block is left level.
Cost ranges by structure type are on the costs page, and the permit process is laid out on the permits page.

We connect you with licensed asbestos removalists for safe testing and removal — this is a licensed job, not a DIY one, so we don't provide how-to advice.
Learn more →Almost always, yes. Demolishing a house needs a demolition permit — a BA5 application under the Building Act 2011 (WA) — lodged with the City of Mandurah, or the Shire of Murray for Pinjarra and Ravenswood. Small outbuildings like sheds and patios up to 40 square metres are generally exempt. The permit paperwork is part of the job scope, not something you get left to work out alone — our Permits page walks through what applies.
The machine work on a typical Mandurah house is measured in days, not weeks — but the whole job runs longer than that. Service disconnections, the demolition permit, and any asbestos removal all happen before an excavator arrives, and that lead-up usually takes several weeks. Plan the timeline backwards from when your builder wants the block, not forwards from when the old house annoys you.
We're a local referral service. Your enquiry goes to independent demolition contractors who work Mandurah and the Peel region, and they quote and carry out the job. We ask the contractors we work with to hold the relevant WorkSafe WA licences and public liability cover — and you should ask to see both before work starts.
