Commercial internal demolition for Inner West tenancies
Master Strip Outs demolishes interiors across the Inner West’s older building stock — Victorian and federation terraces in Newtown, Balmain and Leichhardt, and the converted warehouses of Marrickville and the Alexandria fringe. The age of these buildings is the first fact of every job: fibro sheeting, old lagging, lead paint and other legacy materials are common in structures of this era, so we arrange licensed testing before any suspect material is disturbed. Demolition starts when the results say it is safe, not before.
Terrace work is close-quarters demolition: shared party walls, narrow frontages, rear-lane access and interiors renovated many times over, so what the plans show is rarely all that is there. Warehouse conversions swing the other way — big volumes, old industrial fabric and decades of mezzanines, partitions and services layered through them. In both cases the structure stays: we remove linings, non-loadbearing walls, ceilings, floors and fixtures, and leave the bones of the building for the architect to work with.
Debris goes out the way the building allows — through the rear lane, the courtyard or the front door — sorted for recycling and cleared daily, with the site handed over clean and ready for the builder.

FAQs
Internal Demolition Inner West FAQs
Common questions about internal demolition in the Inner West
Will my Inner West terrace or warehouse contain asbestos?
Given the age of the Inner West’s stock, it is common enough that we treat it as a possibility on every project. Suspect materials are identified during inspection and tested by a licensed assessor before anything is disturbed. If results come back positive, removal happens under the appropriate licence with clearance certification before general demolition resumes — the cost and time are known up front, not discovered mid-job.
Do I need council approval for internal demolition in the Inner West?
Non-structural internal demolition generally does not require council approval — gutting a kitchen, removing linings or taking out non-loadbearing walls sits outside the approval system in most cases. Structural changes, like removing a load-bearing wall between rooms or cutting into a warehouse’s frame, typically need a CDC or DA with an engineer involved, and the Inner West’s many heritage conservation areas can add conditions. We suggest a quick check with a private certifier before locking in your builder’s programme.
How do you demolish inside a terrace without affecting the neighbours?
Party walls are treated as off-limits structure: demolition alongside them uses hand tools and controlled methods rather than percussion, and the wall itself is never disturbed in a non-structural scope. We keep noisy work to reasonable hours, run debris out through the lane or courtyard rather than across shared frontages, and let the neighbours know the schedule before we start.
