If you’re planning a renovation or rebuild, a residential demolition is the vital first step. On the Gold Coast, homeowners often underestimate how structured and safety-driven the process really is. This guide walks you through each stage — from planning and dust management to the final hand-over — so you know exactly what to expect.

1. Initial Site Assessment and Quotation
Before the first wall comes down, a qualified demolition expert will inspect your home.
During this inspection, we assess:
- Access and logistics
- Utility connections (gas, water, electricity)
- Hazardous materials such as asbestos
- Waste removal and recycling requirements
After the visit, you’ll receive a detailed quote outlining the cost, timeline, and safety measures.

2. Planning and Council Compliance
Depending on the scope, your project may require permits or compliance documents.
Spotless Demolition assists with:
- Council notifications and safety documentation
- Waste management and environmental compliance
- Site protection and neighbour communication
Our local experience ensures every demolition meets Queensland safety regulations.
3. Site Preparation and Safety Setup
Before demolition begins:
- Dust barriers and containment sheeting are installed
- Utilities are safely disconnected
- Safety signage and fencing are put in place
- Protected zones are sealed off
These steps ensure the demolition is safe, efficient, and controlled.
4. The Internal Demolition Process
The internal demolition involves carefully removing targeted areas such as:
- Wall linings, flooring, and tiles
- Bathrooms, kitchens, or laundries
- Fixtures, cabinetry, and partitions
Our team uses modern equipment to minimise vibration and dust, protecting your property and the environment.
If asbestos is present, licensed removal specialists manage it safely and legally.
5. Dust Management & Environmental Care
Gold Coast homes are often close to neighbours, so dust management is crucial.
We use:
- Water suppression systems
- Negative air machines
- On-site filtration systems
All debris is sorted, and recyclable materials are diverted from landfill — reflecting our eco-friendly demolition commitment.
6. Site Clean-Up and Waste Disposal
After the last piece is removed, your site is cleaned from top to bottom:
- Rubble and debris cleared
- Surfaces vacuumed and swept
- All waste responsibly transported to licensed facilities
The outcome: a spotless, builder-ready site that saves your trades time and money.
7. Final Inspection and Handover
We conduct a final safety and quality check to confirm your site meets regulatory standards.
You’ll receive confirmation that your property is clean, safe, and ready for the next stage — whether that’s renovation, rebuild, or landscaping.
