A demolition permit needs to be obtained prior to demolition work starting. We will arrange this after we obtain the relevant paperwork from the owner. This takes about two weeks.
Relevant Paperwork:
Consent Form will be posted, emailed or faxed to you.
Copy of ‘Title’ for the property.
Most recent Council rates notice for the property.
Site plan of the existing building (from the back of the ‘soil report’ or hand drawn)
Gas and electricity services to the property need to be abolished. This means that all service lines need to be removed and the meters taken away prior to demolition. This is done only after final meter readings have been obtained. (This process can take up to 20 working days, but usually takes about 2 weeks The electricity cost for this is $109.75, and is billed to the owner of the property.)
Tree removal permits may need to be obtained from the local Council, depending on size of the tree, and if it is located in a vegetation protection overlay. If you have a town planning permit the tree can be removed according to this.
An Asset Protection permit needs to be obtained from your local Council, prior to demolition starting.
