Commercial office building demolition

Stripping and dismantling office buildings is a service we offer, including removing furniture, partitions and facilities. From a small office block on your site to a large corporate space, building owners can hire office demolition from PBM to remove unnecessary buildings. Commercial demolition can also include shops, hotels, and other business premises.

On both large and small demolition projects, there is often a requirement for crushed hardcore materials to remain on site as part of the future works.

PBM can offer small scale and large scale crushing options to match your needs.

Office strip-out and dismantling service

Our experienced team can strip out the interiors of commercial buildings such as offices, shops, restaurants and hotels in an efficient and organised way. Whether you’re scrapping everything and starting again or want to reclaim parts for a future project, we can organise recycling and ensure a safe and suitable solution, with waste removal provided.

What does the process for office demolition involve?

The first step is always to conduct a full survey of the site and establish a plan for the structures to be dismantled. The site survey would involve understanding the types of materials in the construction of the building, assessing the potential presence of hazardous materials such as asbestos, inspecting drainage and utilities that may be shared with other buildings and assessing the impact of the project on local communities. All of these details will inform our planning and programming of the demolition.

  • The office demolition plans will also include the most appropriate methods, the sequence of these methods, health and safety and a waste management plan, to ensure all stakeholders know what will happen at each stage.
  • Prior to commercial demolition, we provide full office strip-out services to remove all built-in and free-standing furniture, partitions, equipment, fixtures and fittings, plumbing, kitchens and flooring.
  • Depending on the project, we then dismantle and strip window frames, doors and glazing, internal walls, electrics, air con, lifts and escalators. Any of these parts can be salvaged and repurposed in new buildings.
  • Once the building is empty and the utilities disconnected, we begin demolition of the exterior structure, depending on the project requirements.

What kind of demolition methods are used for office dismantling?

We use a mix of tried and tested methods and innovative techniques to dismantle commercial buildings. As experts, we always use the correct method for the project at hand, which may differ depending on requirements. The methods for commercial dismantling we may use include:

  • Soft-Strip: Manual or hand demolition of interior and structures
  • Demolition using excavators, including standard and high-reach excavators
  • Top-Down demolition
  • Dismantling

What are the safety measures involved in this demolition process?

All workforce will have an induction to the site and discuss the methods and environment so that everyone on the team is informed.
We will prepare and discuss fire and emergency plans and include these in the H&S induction. We put in measures to reduce and monitor dust, noise and vibration, and all workforce wear full PPE.
