The brief: full demolition of a 1960s single-storey brick veneer home on a narrow Brunswick lot. Total frontage was just 9 metres with a 1.2-metre side passage as the only access point — no driveway, no rear lane. The challenge: we staged the works around a daily truck rotation and used a 2.5-tonne mini excavator for the boundary work. Asbestos-bonded eaves were identified during the pre-demo survey and removed under Class B protocols before the main works began. Adjacent properties on both sides remained occupied throughout — no complaints, no incidents.
