Our team at Polaris Marine Group also have a well-documented history of vessel and structure demolition and removal, including projects from the removal of the ablution block at Snapper Island, to structure dismantling, demolition and disposal including piles and marine infrastructure. We have experience in the delicate operations required for heritage and hazardous works packages and pride ourselves on our history of 100% environmental containment.

From hydraulic pile cutting and removal, to pipe and cable positioning, to underwater welding, to salvage and wreck recovery; our teams are constantly re-training in new techniques and utilise state of the art equipment and tools to undertake all subsea works. Our dive teams work to the strictest of regulations and all divers are accredited to the ADAS scheme.

Polaris Marine Constructions has delivered a number of high-profile heritage listed projects including the recent delivery of substructure works within the Walsh Bay Wharf upgrade and significant restoration works of Circular Quay Wharves 3, 5 and 6.

We have the capacity to deliver heavy timber construction projects and where appropriate, reproduce the original structural arrangement.

An ancillary skill that PMC offer all our projects is our in-house engineering support, whereby our field experienced engineers are relied upon to provide efficient solutions to project detailing problems as they arise.
