What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Brisbane City Demolition has handled a wide spread of projects across Brisbane, from burnt-out houses and long-held rental properties to retail strip-outs and smaller interior demolitions, according to client accounts. A recurring theme is the ease of dealing with one team from start to finish, particularly on complex jobs where asbestos was present alongside structural demolition. Communication before and during work comes up repeatedly, with Jen and Erin in the office named for answering questions, keeping paperwork organised and supplying final documentation promptly, and Oisin or Osh credited with prompt quoting, site supervision and fast completion.

Customers frequently note that quotes were clear and that extra asbestos costs, where they arose, were explained rather than sprung on them. Care taken to understand each job before starting is another common point, whether that meant fitting hazardous-material work around the client's timing or patiently tracing and closing off a problematic sewer line. Safe, efficient methods and skilful machine operation around existing structures are described, and reviewers remark that several jobs wrapped up sooner than the timeframe given, with sites left tidy and advice offered on related renovation trades.

I am so impressed by the overall experience with Erin and Cat at the office and Osh and the team on site. Super helpful leading up to the demo. Just a small interior demo but they were fast and neat. Erin answered my 100 questions with proper customer service and on site Osh and the team wrapped things up in a third of the time they said they would be done. I highly recommend them, they have other connections to lean on if you're doing a reno. I would use them again and I would recommend them to builders, developers and renovators. Great work! Thanks again. Jamie at Newmarket.

I am extremely happy with the overall service even with some additional asbestos costs occurring which could not have been identified in any case with the sitting tenant in place. I really appreciate all Jenneffer and Erin and the rest of the team have done in committing to completing the demolition of my long held rental home in a time critical manner.

Excellent work by Brisbane city demolition. Communication was excellent. We did have a lot of surprise / hidden asbestos on our site demolition so unfortunately the costs did triple on the original quote. Nothing they did wrong. It just part of the process. So just be prepared.

Following a disastrous house-fire in which we lost everything, we were dumbfounded by the generosity and thoughts of the community and all government levels. Since then, we experienced recurring problems with the demolition until we hired Brisbane City Demolition. They have shown every bit as much thought and assistance as the community, and we cannot recommend them more highly. Thank you Brisbane City Demolition for all your help, and we would recommend you to anyone requiring this service.

We had started ringing places to assist with stripping a retail premises and were having no luck- but as soon as we called Brisbane City Demolition we knew we were on to a winner. Jen was warm and welcoming, and Oisin came out to quote promptly and was in communication with us every step of the way. Couldn't recommend them more highly.
