Question 1

Are you licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Demo Bros is registered with the Victorian Building Authority (VBA), carries $20M public liability insurance and full workers compensation coverage. Certificates are supplied with every quote.

Question 2

How quickly can you provide a quote?

Accepted Answer

Most quotes are delivered within 24 hours of a site inspection. For straightforward strip outs, we can often quote from photos and plans the same day.

Question 3

Do you handle asbestos?

Accepted Answer

We arrange licensed asbestos testing on every pre-1990 property and coordinate licensed removal where required, before any demolition begins.

Question 4

What happens to the waste?

Accepted Answer

We run recycling-first waste streams — concrete, brick, metal and timber are separated and diverted. We recycle and divert as much material as possible on every project.

Question 5

Will you protect the parts of my property that stay?

Accepted Answer

Always. Floor protection, dust barriers, service location and daily clean-ups are standard on every project, not optional extras.

Question 6

Do you work after hours?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Most commercial strip outs and defits run after-hours or over weekends. Residential work is scheduled to suit your household.

Question 7

Which areas do you service?

Accepted Answer

We service Melbourne and surrounds — from the CBD out to roughly a 30km radius across the inner north, inner east, bayside and west. If you're nearby, ask; we travel for the right project.

Question 8

Do you provide fixed-price quotes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. After inspection, our quotes are fixed — no day-rate creep, no surprise variations for anything within the agreed scope.

Question 9

Do I need a permit for demolition?

Accepted Answer

Full demolition and some partial demolition require a permit, and often an asset-protection permit from council. Interior strip outs usually don't — though removing a load-bearing wall needs engineering. We advise on your job and coordinate the demolition permit as part of the service.

Question 10

How much does demolition cost in Melbourne?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the job — a kitchen strip out, an office defit and a full house demolition are very different scopes. We provide a fixed quote after a site inspection so you know the exact price up front, with no day-rate surprises.

Question 11

How long does a strip out or house demolition take?

Accepted Answer

Most single-room strip outs are a one-day job; a whole-home or commercial interior typically runs a few days. On site, a standard house demolition is usually a few days once permits and disconnections are done — we confirm the program in your quote.
