Building Waste Removal Process with DACT
Before a new development can be built, the land needs to be cleared and this often involves removing various types of building waste and obstacles, such as vegetation, rocks, and debris.
At DACT Contractors, we aim to make building waste removal as simple as possible and ensure a smooth process from the get-go.
Here’s how:
Free consultation and quote – When you get in touch with our team, we’ll discuss your project and what sort of building waste you need to dispose of before offering an estimate and arranging a convenient date to visit the site in question.
Site assessment – Once we reach your site, our clearance team will conduct a full site survey and assessment to identify the existing ground conditions and potential hazards. This information will help us to devise the most efficient and effective methods to clear your land – ensuring maximum safety and minimal disruption.
Waste management strategy – Whether it be vegetation, demolished materials, building waste or asbestos removal, DACT Contractors will assess what equipment is needed and make sure that all debris is managed and disposed of responsibly. Plus, we’ll recycle building materials – diverting as many as possible from landfill – providing a sustainable solution for every site clearance project.
Building waste removal – If there is a risk of hazardous materials, such as asbestos, we can use our finely honed skills and extensive experience to remove them safely – allowing your construction work to progress without any holdups.
Site cleared – Our experts will take care of every aspect of building waste removal, keeping your area clean and clear, your project on track, and your construction team safe.
Who Needs Construction Site Clearance Contractors?
The services provided by construction site clearance contractors are necessary for all construction projects – no matter how big or small.
Even if there is minimal debris on your construction site, it still needs to be cleared before construction commences. The surface layer of topsoil cannot be built on, as it often contains chemicals that can affect new structures over time, so this will need to be removed.
Without clearing the land, it will be much harder for constructors to build solid and stable structures. And the uncleared area can increase the risk of unforeseen accidents and injuries on-site.
At DACT Contractors, our construction site clearance contractors often help the following people:
- Construction and demolition teams – A site clearance is a crucial first step for any construction or demolition project, removing waste and obstacles to guarantee a safe working environment.
- Property owners – Clearing a site can help property owners to plan future projects, providing a blank canvas. A clear, unobstructed space also shows your property is ready for development, making it more appealing to prospective investors, buyers, or tenants.
- Environmental organisations – Enlisting the expertise of site clearance contractors can help manage a site’s ecosystem, ensuring that harmful materials are disposed of safely and the environment is protected from potentially dangerous chemicals.
Cost of Site Clearance with DACT
The price you’ll pay to clear a site can vary depending on numerous factors:
- – The size of the plot
- – The type of land
- – The amount of vegetation that needs clearing
- – The accessibility of the site
- – Any necessary preparation work
- – The method of building waste removal
To establish how much a site clearance will cost you, we recommend getting in touch with our specialists. We’ll discuss the above factors in detail and provide a free, no-obligation quote.
If you suspect asbestos in the existing building on your land, our team can schedule an asbestos survey before you have your site cleared. As experts in asbestos testing, removal, and disposal, we’ll be able to confirm the presence or absence of asbestos and remove the harmful material – allowing you to safely resume your site clearance and construction project.
