There’s much more to demolition work than meets the eye, which is why relying on a skilled and knowledgeable team ensures your project gets off on the right foot. In fact, substantial behind-the-scenes planning that takes several factors into consideration is necessary to ensure the demolition work is completed safely, efficiently, and with the least damage to the surrounding environment.
Here are a few of the necessary steps that must be taken for successful demolition:
- Site Assessment: The first step needed is a complete site assessment, which allows our team to learn more about the structure’s age, materials, structural condition, and surrounding environment. This helps identify potential hazards such as asbestos, lead, and other dangerous substances.
- Permits and Approvals: Obtaining all essential permits is critical to ensuring compliance with zoning rules, environmental regulations, and waste disposal standards. Also, if hazardous materials exist, they need to be properly removed before demolition can begin.
- Risk Assessment: Safety is essential in demolition work. A complete risk assessment identifies all potential hazards to workers and the public. With our attention to detail and focus, you can rest assured that we take safety very seriously on every project we undertake.
- Post-Demolition Work: Following demolition, the site must be cleared of debris and, depending on the land’s future use, leveled or prepped for new development. Additionally, detailed records of the demolition process should be kept in case they are needed for future use.
- Communication and Coordination: From beginning to end, there should also be clear and transparent communication. You’ll find that we work hard to keep our clients informed of every step we take.
