Method Statement & Quote
Fixed price, programme and waste strategy. Strip Out & Soft Break-remove fixtures, services and non‑structural elements first.
In Most Cases, Permission Is Needed Before Removing a Structures notice or building control application. We prepare Section 80 paperwork, notify the HSE where thresholds apply and book inspections. If asbestos is present, we commission testing and arrange licensed removal. All works follow regulations guidance and BS 5975 temporary works procedures
Under Class B of Schedule 2, Part 11 of the GPDO, minor Demolition works fall under Permitted Development but require Prior Approval, with a 28-day process covering transport, contamination, noise and flood risk assessments. SB Construction surveys your structure, prepares method statements, transport and environmental risk assessments, site notices and compliance declarations to meet Class B requirements. We submit your application fee, liaise with planning officers and track the statutory 28-day decision period, ensuring you can proceed without delay once approval is granted or deemed.
Follow Building Rules When Removing a Structure and the Building Act 1984 to protect safety and structural integrity. SB Construction organises stability assessments, asbestos surveys and risk assessments to satisfy building control requirements.

Often yes. We prop, dust‑screen and complete beam works within one day, then rebuild quickly.
The average timeframe is 1 to 2 days depending on complexity. We prop the area, install the RSJ (steel beam), and rebuild plasterboard or brickwork promptly. Larger spans or additional works like rewiring may extend this slightly.
In most Lincolnshire cases, small outbuildings like timber sheds or detached garages can be removed without consent, if they fall under permitted development. We always advise checking local guidelines to avoid issues.
A soft-strip involves the internal removal of non-structural elements such as partitions, ceilings, wiring, pipework, and fixtures. It's often the first stage before full refurbishment or layout changes, and we ensure safe waste separation throughout.
