South Street, Romford

Overview:

Greenfield Demolition was employed by IC Construction to undertake the demolition works at 64 South Street, Romford. The building was a former nightclub and in mid-terrace with two very busy retail/financial stores either side. The building was to be demolished behind the front facade making way for a residential and commercial development.

Our Scope:

• Asbestos Removal
• Soft Strip
• Separations
• Hand Demolition to the rear of the site
• Demolition
• Remove slab and foundations
• Crush hardcore and concrete arisings and stockpile
• Reduced dig to create basement area (clear from site)
   

Challenge:

Greenfield’s biggest challenge on this project was later on in the project. With the crushed material being reused by the client in the early stages of construction, Greenfield had to mobilise around a tight site during the reduced dig. 

Solutions:

To enable us to reduce this challenge, Greenfield swapped one of our larger 22t Excavator for one of our smaller 13t Excavators. We have grown strong working relationships with local suppliers in and around the South East and worked closely with the haulage company to enable the amount of inert material that was being excavated being stockpiled
