Bathroom Strip-Out Project in Paddington

Background

A homeowner in Paddington, Sydney engaged Evolve Demolition to complete a full bathroom strip-out as part of a major home renovation. The project involved removing the existing bathroom and separate toilet, including wall and floor tiles, bathtub, vanity, toilet suite, wall linings, ceiling sections, and plumbing fixtures. The objective was to provide the renovation team with a clean, safe, and construction-ready space.

The Challenge

The main challenges for this project were:

Internal Residential Demolition:
As the work was carried out inside an occupied home, careful planning was required to minimise dust, noise, and disruption to the surrounding living areas.

Complete Bathroom Removal:
The existing bathroom featured tiled walls, a built-in bathtub, vanity, toilet, plasterboard, and timber framing that required controlled demolition without affecting the structural integrity of the home.

Protection of Surrounding Areas:
Adjacent timber flooring, hallways, and neighbouring rooms needed to be protected throughout the demolition process.

Efficient Waste Management:
All demolition debris had to be safely removed from the property while maintaining a clean and organised worksite.

Our Approach

To address these challenges, we tailored our approach as follows:

Comprehensive Site Assessment:
Before work commenced, our team inspected the bathroom layout, identified plumbing and electrical services, and developed a demolition plan to ensure a safe and efficient strip-out.

Careful Internal Strip-Out:
Using specialised demolition tools, we systematically removed the bathroom fixtures, wall and floor tiles, cabinetry, ceiling linings, and internal wall sheeting while preserving the surrounding structure.

Dust Control and Property Protection:
Protective coverings and dust containment measures were installed to safeguard the home’s flooring, hallways, and adjoining rooms throughout the demolition process.

Responsible Waste Disposal:
All demolition materials were sorted and transported to licensed recycling and waste disposal facilities, with recyclable materials diverted from landfill wherever possible.

Safety and Compliance:
Our team followed strict NSW Work Health and Safety (WHS) procedures to ensure the project was completed safely, efficiently, and in compliance with industry standards.

Results

• The bathroom and separate toilet were completely stripped back to the wall framing.
• All fixtures, tiles, plumbing fittings, and wall linings were safely removed.
• Surrounding rooms and finishes remained protected throughout the project.
• Demolition waste was removed promptly and disposed of responsibly.
• The project was completed on schedule, leaving the site clean and ready for renovation.
