Demolition, Dismantling, Asbestos Removal, Site Clearance, Land Remediation

Demolition

We carry out all types of Demolition throughout the East Midlands, for a very varied client base.

  • Our management has a vast experience of the Industry, and maintain their Continuous Professional Development (CPD) through the Institute of Demolition Engineers (IDE).
  • Our site operatives are all trained to current regulations, using CSCS/ NDTG/ PASMA/ IPAF approved Training Providers.
  • The Company is accredited by Constructionline, CHAS and Worksafe SSIP, and carries Employers Liability and Public Liability Insurance of £10 million and £5 million respectively.
  • The Company employs a suitably qualified internal Health & Safety Manager, and uses the services of an external Health & Safety Consultant if required for a particular project.
  • All projects have Site Specific Method Statements and Risk Assessments compiled in accordance with the CDM Regs 2007, and are carried out in accordance with BS 6187 2011.

Asbestos Removal

We carry out all non-licensed (Notifiable or Non-Notifiable) Asbestos Removal in-house, and use the services of a Licensed Contractor if required for a particular project.

  • Our operatives are suitably trained and certified (medically) for working with these particular materials.
  • Projects with Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM’s) present are notified to the HSE.
  • All projects with ACM’s have Site Specific Method Statements and Risk Assessments compiled.

 

Dismantling

If a more controlled approach is required, we can dismantle structures within structures using various techniques:

  • Cold-cutting/shearing of Steel components where noise, dust, flame-cutting and vibration are not permissible;
  • Remote Demolition of any type of structure where access for plant and equipment is severely restricted;
  • Physical dismantling where all or parts of the structure are required for re-use, or neighbouring structures are too close to allow traditional techniques;

Ground Remediation

As an add-on to our Demolition works, we can carry out Full Site Remediation as required.

  • We can remove substructures and obstructions to facilitate installation of traditional or piled foundations.
  • We can remove contamination or unsuitable fill to prepare the site for its future use.
  • We can crush site-won hardcore or import hardcore to provide piling mats or other ground stabilisation solutions.

 

Recycling

Disposal of arisings from Demolition is thoroughly investigated to find the most economical and environmentally sound solution. It is common practice on our projects to:

  • Separate all waste into basic categories (Wood, Paper/Plastic, Plasterboard, Metals, Hardcore, General ICW);
  • Place wood, paper/plastic, plasterboard and metals into designated skips which are taken to an appropriate waste facility;
  • Process all hard/inert materials on-site, and re-use these materials on-site where possible;
  • Landfill the absolute minimum practical amount, and only as a last resort;

 

Reclamation

Wherever possible, we will reclaim any materials such as Tiles, Slates, Bricks, Timbers, Floorboarding, Stonework, Structural and Architectural Steelwork.
