Frequently asked questions

Hiring demolition contractors

How much do demolition contractors typically charge?
Costs for demolition contractors vary widely depending on the job's scope and complexity. Simple non-hazardous stripouts are generally much less than jobs involving structural work or hazardous-material removal, and factors like site access, waste disposal and after-hours attendance can increase costs. The live pricing shown on this page can help you compare current quotes.
Do demolition contractors charge call-out fees?
Call-out fees are common and often cover travel and the initial assessment, typically separate from hourly labour rates. After-hours or emergency attendance usually attracts higher labour rates or loadings. It's worth confirming any call-out, minimum charge or after-hours rates when requesting quotes.
Do demolition contractors need a licence in Australia?
Yes. Demolition contractors require a state demolition licence or registration in every Australian state and territory, and in NSW the regulator is SafeWork NSW. Where asbestos is present, an appropriate asbestos removal licence (Class A or B) is generally needed; also check for an ABN, adequate public liability insurance and workers' compensation cover if staff are employed.
Do I need a licensed Demolition Contractor in New South Wales?
In New South Wales, this kind of work generally must be carried out by an appropriately licensed professional. When you compare demolition contractors in Botany on SureQuote, you can check the credentials each business has provided before you choose.
