From factory units and warehouses to schools and council facilities, First Class Demolition delivers the safe removal of metal structures, concrete buildings, car parks, and walkways with complete precision.
We specialise in heavy-duty reinforced concrete removal. Our team handles everything from waffle pod slabs and strip footings to deep foundations and rock excavation, leaving your site fully cleared and ready for the next stage.
Get your commercial property ready for its next phase. We carefully strip out internal fixtures, fittings, and non-structural elements, creating a clean blank canvas for refurbishment or renovation.
Before construction begins, we return your land to optimal condition. Our site remediation services remove debris, rocks, and overgrown vegetation, ensuring a level and development-ready surface.
When part of a structure needs to remain, our precise and controlled methods allow us to remove selected sections while protecting the integrity of the areas being retained or extended.
Safety comes first. Working alongside fully licensed specialists, we manage the removal of both Class A and Class B asbestos, ensuring all Brighton projects meet strict compliance standards and receive the required clearance certification.
As a core division of First Class Demolition, we deliver industry-leading commercial and industrial demolition services across the Brighton region and throughout Victoria. With more than 20 years of hands-on experience, our team specialises in the safe dismantling of factories, warehouses, schools, and public facilities, along with the removal of metal structures and paved surfaces.
Beyond conventional demolition, we provide specialised services including bulk excavation, full site remediation, and selective structural removal. Every project is carried out under strict safety procedures, with licensed asbestos removal coordinated where required. Fully insured and VBA-registered, First Class Demolition ensures every Brighton site is compliant, cleared, and ready for its next stage of development.
Before any structures are brought down, securing the appropriate Development Approval (DA) and Complying Development Certificate (CDC) from the local Brighton council is essential. First Class Demolition streamlines this process by liaising directly with local authorities and managing all required documentation. In most cases, approvals are obtained within 7–14 days.
Commercial demolition involves far more than simply knocking down walls. It requires careful deconstruction, controlled waste removal, environmental considerations, and the recovery of recyclable materials. Even for partial or small-scale works, regulatory requirements remain strict. As a certified and fully insured contractor, First Class Demolition has the expertise to carry out projects safely while protecting surrounding structures and infrastructure.
Once the site has been vacated and council approvals are in place, the physical demolition phase is typically completed within a few working days. While we prioritise efficiency, external factors such as severe weather or complex site conditions can occasionally affect the timeline.
The cost of commercial demolition in Brighton depends on several key factors:
Structure Size – The total square metre area of the building
Site Access – Ease of entry for heavy machinery and equipment
Building Materials – Concrete, steel, and brick structures each require different methods and disposal processes
Hazardous Materials – Special handling and removal of asbestos or other contaminants
Project Scope
• Full Demolition – Complete removal and site clearing (higher overall cost)
• Selective Demolition – Targeted removal of specific sections (more precise and often more cost-effective)
Compliance & Logistics – Waste levies, safety hoarding, permits, and traffic management where required
Estimated Pricing: Commercial demolition generally ranges between $50 and $200 per square metre. For an accurate fixed quote, we recommend arranging an on-site inspection with our team.
We offer urgent emergency call-outs for critical issues such as blocked drainage systems, helping keep your site safe and preventing costly structural or environmental damage.
First Class Demolition is committed to responsible waste management. All materials are sorted on-site, with salvageable and recyclable items sent to approved processing facilities. Hazardous materials, including asbestos, are securely sealed and transported to licensed disposal centres in full compliance with regulations.
Whether you need a complete building removal or a precise internal strip-out for a factory or office, our team has it covered. Every Brighton project is carefully planned to minimise noise and dust disruption, maximise recycling outcomes, and maintain full regulatory compliance.
