Depending on the nature of your project, different documentation will be required ahead of our team providing a quotation.

Hughes and Salvidge undertake demolition projects across the UK and into Europe.
Demolition costs all depend on your project - its size, what it’s made from, where it is, if there are any hazardous materials present, whether it is easily accessible, as well as any structural concerns, and many other factors.
Because there are so many variables, Hughes and Salvidge do not provide a ‘demolition by the metre’ rate. Instead, we gain as much information from you, the client, as we can and offer a site visit where our experienced team can determine an accurate cost for your demolition project.
For the most part, yes.
Asbestos removal is often a crucial part of the demolition process. Many older buildings contain asbestos, which can be hazardous to health. A licensed asbestos removal contractor must be hired to safely remove and dispose of any asbestos-containing materials before demolition can proceed.
Hughes and Salvidge have our own in-house Asbestos Removal division, H&S Asbestos, who support us in ensuring asbestos is safely and efficiently removed.
Environmental considerations are vital in demolition projects. We develop an Environmental Management Plan to address issues like waste disposal, recycling, and pollution prevention and employ an in-house Environmental Advisor to support the site teams in keeping the environment at the forefront of our minds. We also consult independent Ecologists to ensure vegetation, wildlife and waterways remain unharmed during our works.
