Among all the demolition work, industrial demolition is the most challenging one. As its complex nature, it is also one of those subjects that people know very little about.
That is why there are some common questions that we are asked a lot. So in this article, we decided to give them an answer. Keep reading to find some of the frequently asked industrial demolition questions and their answers.
How do you deal with hazardous materials in industries?
Factories and industries often contain hazardous materials like chemicals that can’t just be thrown away as it is. They could be dangerous to not just human health but the environment, too. That is why such hazardous substances need proper disposal at the right places.
At Deft Demo, we take extra care when dealing with such materials. Our experts are well-trained in handling these materials and know about disposal units where they can safely be discarded, eliminating all the potential risks they pose by public exposure.
Do I need approval from government authorities to demolish my industrial structure?
Yes. Taking necessary permissions from your council is extremely necessary before commencing any demolition project, whether it is residential, commercial, or industrial. Taking approvals can be sometimes difficult and too confusing as there are so many things to take care of.
The best way to avoid this confusion and hassle of acquiring permissions is by hiring the right demolition contractor who can handle this as well. Deft Demo offers complete demolition services which involves taking necessary permissions and taking care of every necessary documentation it needs to take down the industrial building.
How long does it take to demolish a commercial or industrial building?
There is no straightforward answer to this as every building has different dimensions. We can only give the correct time estimation when we examine and evaluate the scope of work. But, if we are to give a broad answer, we could say that an industrial demolition can take between a week to a month and even several months.
It all depends on the work and challenges like structural complexities, presence of hazardous materials, sites located in a confined space, environmental considerations, historical structure, etc. This is why it is best to contact an expert demolition contractor for accurate time estimation of your industrial demolition project.
How do you demolish a factory located in a confined space?
Demolishing buildings in confined spaces comes with its own set of complexities. And when this building is a factory or industrial plant, it becomes more challenging. One of the biggest challenges is that you can’t use regular machinery in tight-access demolition because of their size. It requires special equipment that can fit in and help you tear down the structure more easily.
At Deft Demo, we have a whole arsenal of tools and technologies designed to enter into confined spaces and make it easier to demolish a structure without any hassle. Our trained staff are not only well-versed in operating such complex machines but also possess experience in taking the building down safely and effectively.
