Demolition Licence — verification in WA

A demolition licence authorises a business to carry out prescribed classes of demolition work in Western Australia, with licence classes scaled to the height and complexity of the structures being demolished.

Who needs it

Contractors undertaking notifiable demolition work — from single-storey structures through to major multi-storey demolition, depending on licence class.

How verification works

RefChecks licence verification covers construction credentials — the White Card, High Risk Work Licences and trade licences — read from the candidate's document and confirmed against the state register in a single check. This record type sits outside that scope.

Verified against the WA Government Online Licence Search, operated by the Department of Energy, Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety. Where the register and this page differ, the register prevails.
