Demolition Reservoir
Clearing Reservoir Blocks for Townhouses and Rebuilds
We handle demolition in Reservoir, much of it for owners and developers turning one older house into new townhouses or units. Reservoir’s post-war weatherboard and brick homes often sit on larger blocks, which makes them a popular choice for subdivision and rebuilds.
Reservoir sits within Darebin City Council, and the permit steps depend on your address and what you’re building next. We check those requirements before we quote, so you know what to expect. If you’re planning a subdivision or a knockdown, give us a call and we’ll talk it through.

What We Offer Reservoir Property Owners
House demolition
Post-war weatherboard and brick homes cleared to make way for townhouses, units or a single new home. We remove the house, stumps or footings and all the rubble, so nothing is left in the ground to trip up the new build. Neighbouring fences are protected while the work happens.
Land clearing
Big backyards with overgrown gardens, old fruit trees and stumps cleared, leaving the whole block ready to build on. On a subdivision, the back of the block matters as much as the front. We clear it all, so every new dwelling starts on clean ground.
Sheds, garages and bungalows
Backyard structures removed before a subdivision or a rear-block build. Many Reservoir yards have an old garage, sleep-out or shed that has to go first. We take these down as part of the main job, so you only book one team.
Concrete removal
Long driveways, old garage slabs and concrete yards broken out so the new layout can go ahead. A subdivision usually needs a completely different driveway layout, so the old concrete has to come out. We cart it all away, leaving the ground ready for the civil works.
Commercial demolition
Older shops and light industrial buildings in Reservoir’s commercial areas, cleared for redevelopment. We plan access and truck movements around the street and neighbouring businesses. The site is handed back level and ready for the new development.

A Simple Process for Reservoir Subdivisions
For most subdivisions, the demolition is the first big step. We keep it straightforward.
First, we make sure the building permit is in place through a registered building surveyor and that adjoining owners have been notified. Next, we line up the disconnection of gas, electricity and water. Many weatherboard homes from this era also contain asbestos, and Victoria requires an asbestos survey before demolition, with any removal done by a licensed removalist before we start.
Then we take the house down and clear the whole block, including the backyard, so your builder or surveyor can get straight to work.
Turn Your Reservoir Block Into Your Next Build
If you’re developing in Reservoir, Kingsbury or Preston, we’ll make the demolition side easy. One clear plan covers the house, the backyard and the old concrete, so nothing is missed.
Tell us how many dwellings you’re planning and when your builder wants to start. We’ll check the Darebin side, work out the order of the job and give you a quote for the whole block. That keeps your subdivision moving from day one.
