Breaking out the old slab's thick edge beams, and building a DIY camera system that pays for itself in under 8 months on a long build.

Breaking out old concrete with less vibration, planning for groundwater, and why the pool will now sit on retained ground instead of over a deep void.

Organising the site container, getting the site toilet running, and breaking out a thick 30-year-old pool beside a core-filled block retaining wall.
Post 13: Inside a Controlled House Demolition
A careful demolition with dust control, what the verge, vehicle crossover and kerb and channel are, and setting up the toilet, drinking water and site cameras.
