Internal Demolition North Shore
Internal Demolition On the North Shore
Commercial internal demolition for North Shore tenancies
Master Strip Outs runs two kinds of internal demolition on the North Shore. In the commercial centres — North Sydney, Chatswood, St Leonards — we demolish tired office fit outs ahead of refurbishment: ceilings, partitions, linings and redundant services out, structure untouched, with hours and access agreed with building management so neighbouring tenants keep working.
In the leafy suburbs around those centres, the work changes character entirely. Federation and inter-war homes being renovated need internal demolition done with a light touch: lath-and-plaster walls, original ceilings, timber floors and period joinery removed only where the renovation plans say so, and protected everywhere else. Homes of this era can also conceal materials that pre-date modern standards, so anything suspect is tested by a licensed assessor before it is disturbed.
Commercial floor or family home, the discipline is the same: dust sealed at the source, debris sorted for recycling, the retained structure protected, and the site handed over clean and ready for the builders.

Common questions about internal demolition on the North Shore
Do I need council approval to gut the interior of my North Shore home?
For non-structural internal demolition — removing linings, non-loadbearing walls, kitchens, bathrooms and floor coverings — council approval is generally not required. The moment the scope touches structure, such as removing a load-bearing wall to open up living areas, a CDC or DA with engineering input is typically needed. Heritage listings and conservation areas, which are common on the North Shore, can also change the picture, so we recommend confirming your scope with a private certifier before demolition is booked.
Can you demolish an office floor in North Sydney while the building stays occupied?
Yes. We complete the building induction, agree working hours with management, seal the floor for dust and keep high-noise demolition to the approved windows. Debris travels in protected lifts to the dock, and tenants elsewhere in the building carry on as normal throughout the refurbishment demolition.
How do you protect original features in a federation home?
The demolition plans decide everything. Before work starts we walk the house with you and mark retained features — fireplaces, ceiling roses, leadlight, original joinery — then physically protect them and demolish around them. Where features are being removed but are worth keeping, we can take them out intact for salvage rather than putting them in the bin.
