Licensed demolition contractors serving Newcastle-under-Lyme and North Staffordshire — commercial, industrial, soft strip and emergency demolition. Call 0800 222 9772.
Jim Wise Demolition has been based at Hot Lane Industrial Estate — on the doorstep of Newcastle-under-Lyme — since 1982. Over four decades, we have delivered commercial and industrial demolition across North Staffordshire, working directly for Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council, NHS Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent, local housing associations and the region's principal contractors. Our own plant and directly employed operatives mean we can mobilise within hours — often the same day — for projects in the town and surrounding area.
Newcastle-under-Lyme's built environment encompasses former ceramics and light engineering premises, Victorian commercial buildings, NHS estate, retail and residential stock — much of which carries significant asbestos contamination in pre-1980 construction. Our HSE asbestos licence covers all surveys, licensed removal, four-stage clearance procedures and UKAS-accredited air monitoring in-house. We have delivered asbestos removal and demolition projects on commercial premises throughout Newcastle, Kidsgrove, Alsager, Madeley and the surrounding North Staffordshire area.
As the nearest major demolition contractor to Newcastle-under-Lyme, we offer a level of local responsiveness that national contractors simply cannot match. ConstructionLine Gold, SSIP Acclaim, Once for All verification and our clean HSE record — not a single prohibition notice in over a decade — satisfy Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council, NHS procurement teams and the North Staffordshire supply chains of the region's leading main contractors from the first submission.
