Safe, licensed & insured demolition services across Devonport & North West Tasmania

Licensed Demolition Contractors – Devonport & North West Tasmania

Every new build, extension or renovation starts with a clear site. VIT Construction provides safe, fully licensed and insured demolition services for homeowners, builders, real estate agents, body corporates and developers across Devonport and the North West coast.

We plan every demolition properly – disconnecting services, identifying and removing hazardous materials, protecting neighbouring properties and recycling as much timber, steel and concrete as possible. You get a clean, level site ready for the next stage and one point of contact from start to finish.

Full House & Structure Demolition

Complete demolition of weatherboard, brick and fibro homes, units and light commercial buildings including slab and footing removal, service disconnections and site levelling.

Partial Demolition for Renovations & Extensions

Careful removal of walls, roofs, verandahs and rooms while protecting the parts of your home you’re keeping. We work closely with your builder to hit their program.

Internal Strip-Outs

Kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, ceilings, flooring, wall linings and fit-outs stripped back to the frame – fast and tidy, with all rubbish removed.

Sheds, Garages, Carports & Decks

Old sheds, garages, carports, pergolas, decks and outbuildings removed and disposed of – including asbestos-cement sheds under our asbestos licence.

Concrete, Driveway & Slab Removal

Breaking and removing concrete driveways, paths, slabs, retaining walls and footings with the right machinery for tight residential access.

Asbestos Removal Before Demolition

Most homes built before 1990 contain asbestos. We are licensed to identify, remove and dispose of asbestos safely, so you can bundle both jobs and save. See our Asbestos Removal service.

Site Clearing, Rubbish Removal & Levelling

Vegetation, stumps, rubbish and old fences cleared, then the site levelled and compacted ready to build – with a clean handover.
