If you've ever searched for "demolition contractors near me" or wondered what a demolition company really does day to day — you're not alone.
At Jim Wise Demolition, we handle everything from carefully stripping out a single garage to bringing down multi-storey industrial complexes, safely and efficiently.
This blog will walk you through the full scope of what we do — and why it’s about much more than just “knocking buildings down.”
A demolition contractor is a licensed professional who plans, manages, and safely executes the dismantling and removal of buildings or structures. That could be:
And it involves much more than just machinery. At Jim Wise, our demolition services include:
Here's a closer look at how demolition contractors work:
We begin with a free, no-obligation site visit to assess the scope of works. You can request one here or call us on 01782 790576.
Before works begin, we liaise with Building Control and, where needed, help arrange asbestos surveys, disconnections, and permits. We also prepare full RAMS (Risk Assessments & Method Statements).
We remove internal fixtures, fittings, and non-structural elements, carefully segregating waste and salvaging materials where possible.
Depending on the project, this may involve high-reach excavators, hand-demolition methods, or controlled mechanical techniques. Safety is paramount at every stage.
We sort and remove all demolition waste, recycling materials wherever possible. Our aim is to leave you with a clean, safe, and ready-to-use site.
We carry out demolition and strip-out works across a wide range of sectors, tailoring our approach to suit each environment:
