Project Stories & Insights
Real projects, real lessons. What actually happens on Sydney sites — asbestos, demolition, strip-outs and the compliance that keeps programmes on track.
HazWreck Is Now CM3 Certified
Our work health & safety management system has been independently assessed and prequalified through CM3 — the contractor standard principal builders and government asset owners check before you're allowed on site. What it means, and why we pursued it.
The Asbestos They Didn't Expect
A commercial gym conversion in Gladesville. Known asbestos on the register. More behind the walls. How integrating removal and demolition under one contractor kept the programme on track.
500 Skylight Panels and the Job That Was Never Just Asbestos Removal
An enquiry to decontaminate asbestos glazing tape beneath ~500 skylight panels. Why the asbestos was the easy part — and how access, glass handling and reinstatement boundaries really define a job like this.
One Night. One Crew. One Westfield Store.
An 88m² Flight Centre tenancy at Westfield Miranda, stripped to base building in a single overnight shift. Why retail defits are really a logistics exercise — and how loading-dock sequencing, not demolition, defines success.
The Document That Really Controls Your Demolition Date
A weatherboard knockdown in Lambton, Newcastle. The drawings were ready — but the council's Notice of Determination set the real start date. Why consent conditions, neighbour notices and service disconnections decide your demolition programme.
Nobody Noticed — Demolishing a Working Gym Without Closing It
Six consecutive night shifts inside a fully operational World Gym in Penrith. ~40 tonnes removed, load-bearing walls down under engineered propping, and the doors open every morning like nothing happened. Why live-environment structural demolition is its own discipline.
#002 Removing Aircraft Hangar Doors at Sydney Airport — Why We Didn't Give a Fixed Price
Up to six aircraft hangar doors to remove at Sydney Airport, with the crane class hanging on an engineered lift study. Why a fixed lump sum would have hidden the risk — and how a transparent pricing range served the client better.
