Site clearance & grading

vegetation grub-out, debris haulage, crushed-concrete backfill and laser-level checks deliver a pad ready for survey set-out.

Our Process for House Demolition

Site survey & fixed quote: intrusive survey, asbestos sampling and service-map checks yield a guaranteed price, draft programme and risk register.
Permits & utilities: Section 80 notice filed, disconnections booked, temporary fencing erected, neighbours notified at least 7 days before works.
Soft-strip & salvage: reusable fixtures removed, hazardous materials isolated, air monitoring commenced and environmental controls signed off by Building Control.

Controlled demolition
high-reach or 360 ° excavator with selector grab reduces the structure; water mists suppress dust and noise stays inside COPA 1974 limits.
Waste removal & handover
concrete crushed, metals segregated, soil graded; Building Control issues the completion letter and you receive the waste-transfer docket pack.

Planning Permission for House Demolitions

Full permission is required for any partial demolition. Whole building demolition may follow Permitted Development when a Prior Approval form covering method statement, dust suppression and site restoration is accepted. In conservation areas “relevant demolition” consent applies once volume exceeds 115 m³ or boundary walls stand over 1 m beside a highway. SB prepares drawings, heritage notes and submits via the Planning Portal while tracking officer feedback to keep the schedule on track.

Permitted Development for House Demolition

Schedule 2 Part 11 Class B allows complete demolition once Prior Approval is granted. We file the form, attach a detailed demolition method statement and a restoration plan. The council must respond inside 28 days, no reply means deemed consent on day 29 and plant can mobilise immediately.

Read Prior Approval guidance.

Building Regulations for House Demolition

Section 80 of the Building Act 1984 requires a 6-week notice to Building Control for structures over 49 m³. Authorities may add conditions – protect drains, prop party walls, limit working hours. We integrate all conditions, set hours to 08:00-18:00, deploy acoustic blankets and log vibration with tri-axial sensors.

Building Control notice example.

Listed Building Consent for Demolition

Demolishing a listed structure or a pre-1948 curtilage wall needs consent. Our heritage consultant documents significance, salvages notable fabric and schedules works around conservation-officer inspections. Decisions in Lincolnshire average 10-12 weeks, factored into prelims so plant never idles.

Allow 1 week for surveys and asbestos sampling, then 4 weeks for statutory notices and service cut-offs. Plant usually rolls on day 35, keeping momentum high.

For whole-house takedowns you will already be off-site. For partial works we erect dust screens and safe routes, but most clients choose short local accommodation for comfort.

The figure covers surveys, permits, demolition, waste haulage, backfill and final grading. Extras apply only if lab-confirmed hidden asbestos requires licensed removal.

Yes. Safe viewing slots are arranged once the structure drops to single-storey height. Photo updates arrive daily if you are away.

We finish with laser level grading and Type 1 backfill, so groundworkers can set out the very next working day once Building Control signs off.

We serve advance notice, restrict hours to 08:00-18:00 weekdays, install acoustic screens, use fine-mist sprays and monitor dust PM10 levels. Readings and log sheets are shared with neighbours weekly.
