WHAT HAPPENS DURING DEMOLITION?

The process of building demolition involves several steps to ensure that it is carried out safely and efficiently, including:

​

  • Planning: Before any work begins, a plan is developed considering the site conditions, structure type, and safety hazards. This plan also includes obtaining necessary permits and notifying local authorities and neighbours.

  • Waste removal: The site is then prepared by removing any hazardous materials and clearing the area around the structure.

  • Demolition: The demolition begins with removing interior materials, such as walls and fixtures, followed by exterior demolition using methods such as implosion, high-reach excavators, or wrecking balls.

  • Site restoration: After demolition, the debris is sorted and removed from the site, with recycling and salvaging materials that can be repurposed. Finally, the site is restored to its original condition or prepared for new construction.

​

Throughout the process, our demolition contractors ensure safety as a top priority. Strict protocols are followed to prevent accidents and protect workers and the community. It includes using protective equipment and safety barriers.

  • Proper equipment and techniques: Professional demolition companies have access to specialized equipment, such as excavators, wrecking balls, and high-reach machines, ensuring efficient and controlled demolition. They also use the right techniques, whether it's mechanical demolition, deconstruction, or implosion, depending on the project's needs.

  • Environmental responsibility: A reputable demolition contractor ensures proper waste management, including recycling salvageable materials and disposing of hazardous substances in accordance with environmental laws. This reduces landfill waste and promotes sustainable demolition practices.
