Starting your knockdown rebuild is an exciting milestone, the first real step toward your brand-new home. But before construction begins, your existing property needs to be safely and thoroughly demolished.

For many people, demolition feels like the most daunting part of the process. It involves permits, service disconnections, safety requirements, and preparing the land for construction. Done right, it sets your build up for success. Done poorly, it can cause costly delays and unnecessary stress.

That’s why we recommend working with one of our trusted demolition contractors.

Want to use your own contractor?

If you’d prefer to use your own contractors, that’s completely fine. Just keep in mind that our contractors are fully qualified and work to the highest standards, and any contractors you engage will also need to uphold the same benchmark.

If services aren’t properly disconnected, waste is left behind, or essential paperwork is missing, construction can’t begin until those issues are resolved. This often means extra costs, extended delays, and frustration for homeowners.

By choosing one of our recommended contractors, you avoid these risks. They’ve been carefully vetted and proven to deliver safe, compliant, and reliable work every time.
