We plan, permit, and execute structural demolition across Sydney. Full building demolition, heavy concrete and steel removal, and site clearing. Licensed, insured, and methodically documented.
Full structural demolition is not about brute force. It requires planning, engineering, hazardous material management, and methodical execution. The demolition sequence, machine access, neighbour protection, services disconnection, and waste management all need to be planned before anything comes down.
METCON manages structural demolition as a proper construction project, with a plan, a sequence, and documentation. We handle permits, asbestos removal, services disconnection, the demolition itself, and site clearing, all under one contract.
Whether it's a residential home for a knock-down rebuild, a commercial building being cleared for redevelopment, or a structure that's reached end of life, we bring it down safely, clear the site, and hand it over ready for the next stage.
If any of these sound familiar, it is worth a free site visit. We will tell you straight what your site needs.
The existing home needs to come down completely, including foundations, for a new home to be built on the block.
Site cleared to ground level, services terminated, and the site prepared for new construction or sale.
When a building is unsafe and cannot be remediated economically, controlled demolition is the responsible solution.
Factory, warehouse, or industrial building demolition with potential contamination assessment and remediation.
Structures damaged beyond repair need safe, controlled demolition with hazard assessment and insurance documentation.
Taller structures need top-down demolition, floor-by-floor, with specific machine access and engineering.

A selection of recent structural demolition projects across Sydney.
View all projectsEvery structural demolition follows our structured five-step process. Nothing comes down until the plan is complete and permits are in hand.
We inspect the structure, assess hazardous materials, survey neighbouring properties, and identify all services. This assessment drives the demolition plan.
Development application or CDC for demolition, SafeWork NSW notifications, utility disconnections, and neighbour notifications. All permits obtained before work starts.
Asbestos and hazardous materials removed by licensed handlers before any structural demolition begins. Clearance certificates obtained.
Building demolished per the engineered sequence. Machine demolition, hand demolition where required, dust suppression, and traffic management throughout.
Demolition waste removed, site levelled, underground services capped, and site handed over clean. All documentation and disposal records provided.
Demolition permits, asbestos clearance, waste disposal records, site survey, and a clean site ready for the next stage. Fully documented.
We build buildings and we bring them down. Understanding how structures work makes us better at demolishing them safely. Engineering knowledge applied to every demolition project.
We build structures and demolish them, understanding both makes us safer and more efficient.
Licensed asbestos handling, lead paint, and contaminated materials managed before any demolition begins.
Meteora Constructions Pty Ltd, fully licensed in NSW with all required insurances.
All demolition permits, notifications, and compliance requirements managed under one contract.
Pre-condition surveys, dust management, vibration monitoring, and clear communication with neighbours.
Hands-on Sydney building experience going back to the 1970s.
Real reviews from homeowners, strata and builders.
We're a strata block and needed a retaining wall replaced urgently. METCON moved fast, communicated well, and the residents are very happy.
I called three builders and METCON were the only ones who actually came to look at the site before quoting. Honest pricing, no surprises.
We got three quotes. METCON was not the cheapest but was clearly the most thorough. Worth every dollar.
Straight answers from the builder. Anything else, just ask.
Yes, most demolition work in NSW requires approval. Internal strip-outs may be exempt in some cases, but partial and full demolition typically require a Development Application or Complying Development Certificate.
Additional requirements may include:
We handle all permits and compliance requirements.
We coordinate licensed asbestos removal as part of our demolition and renovation services. All asbestos work is carried out by licensed removalists in line with SafeWork NSW regulations.
If your property was built before 1990, there is a chance it contains asbestos, so we always arrange appropriate testing before starting demolition or renovation work.
Every METCON quote is fully itemised and includes:
There are no hidden costs. What we quote is what you pay, unless you request changes to the scope.
Construction can sometimes uncover unexpected issues, especially on older properties or difficult sites.
If we find something outside the original scope, such as hidden asbestos, unstable soil or structural defects, we tell you immediately, explain the options and give you a clear cost for any additional work before proceeding.
You are never hit with surprise bills.
We cover the full scope of demolition & excavation work with one licensed team.
