Pre-Demolition Preparation

Start Expected to end

Before demolition can begin, the site is carefully prepared to ensure safety and compliance. This includes surveys, utility disconnections, and the installation of hoardings and protective measures. These early steps make sure the work can proceed in a controlled and well-managed way.

Soft Strip

Start Expected to end

The building is dismantled from the inside first. Fixtures, fittings, and internal services are removed, and materials are separated for reuse or recycling where possible. This reduces waste and helps minimise disruption during the main demolition works.

Structural Demolition

Start Expected to end

With the building stripped back, demolition of the main structure can begin. Specialist equipment is used to take the block down in a planned sequence, working safely and steadily. Dust, noise, and vibration are closely monitored throughout this stage.

Waste Removal and Recycling

Start Expected to end

As demolition progresses, materials are processed and removed from site. Concrete, steel, and other materials are separated to maximise recycling and reduce landfill. This phase runs alongside demolition to keep the site clear and organised.

Ground Clearance

Start Expected to end

Once the structure has been removed, remaining slabs, foundations, and underground elements are taken out. The ground is then levelled and stabilised, leaving the site safe and ready for the next phase of works.
