OUR SITE CLEARANCE SERVICES

Hughes and Salvidge have the knowledge and expertise to ensure your site clearance project is carried out safely, efficiently, and in a cost-effective manner. Carefully considered planning and execution of site clearance are crucial to guarantee safety, compliance with regulations, and the smooth advancement of the entire construction or redevelopment project.

All activities undertaken by Hughes and Salvidge will be in accordance with the approved programme of work, phased operations and safe demolition techniques and the activities will be planned and undertaken in line with the Risk Assessments, Method Statements, Project Health and Safety Plan and Environmental Plan. Here are some of the aspects involved in site clearance:

Site Survey and Assessment

Our services begin by conducting a thorough survey and assessment of the site to identify any potential challenges, underground structures, or hidden hazards that may impact the clearance process.

A strategic and proactive approach

Ensuring safety during demolition

 

 

Utility Disconnection

Decommissioning involves the safe disconnection and removal of utilities, such as water, gas, electricity, and sewage connections to the site. This step is crucial to prevent any safety hazards during the demolition and subsequent construction phases.

Structural Demolition

In order to clear a site, we often need to dismantle and remove existing buildings or structures. This can involve controlled demolition techniques to bring down structures safely and efficiently.

 

 

Clearing the path for development

 

Creating a clean slate

Debris Removal

Clearing the site of any rubble, construction waste, or debris resulting from the demolition process is an essential step in site clearance. We will always dispose of or recycle waste materials in compliance with environmental regulations.

 

Hazardous Material Removal

Part of our complete site clearance solution involves the removal of hazardous materials, such as pollution or contaminants. This can be from soil, groundwater, sediment or surface water.

 

 

Safeguarding ecosystems

Delivering a high quality service

 

 

Final Inspection

Upon completion of the site clearance, the project manager will undertake a comprehensive final inspection to verify its alignment with approved plans and adherence to regulations. This meticulous review ensures that the site is ready for handover to the client.
