Greenfield Demolition was awarded the strip out works at Elthorne Primary School by Jerram Falkus Construction to strip a classroom block at a school in Hanwell. This job was to be completed over one phase and we acted as a subcontractor.

This was our first project for Jerram Falkus Construction

Our Scope:

• Strip out classrooms
• Remove partitioning walls
• Remove windows and doors
• Remove ceilings
• Remove M&E equipment

Challenges

Greenfield’s greatest challenge on this project was that the works were carried out on a live school. We had a very tight time-frame to complete our works to allow Jerram to undertake their main works during the school holidays.

Solutions

Greenfield sourced trained local labour to enable us to complete the strip out of the classroom block in the three-day period. Greenfield sourced local suppliers who were able to remove the waste when required and make deliveries accordingly too.

Project Review:

Greenfield Demolition were awarded the demolition works at Heathermount School by Beard Guildford to demolish a caretakers shed, two houses and removal of a slab. This job is to be completed over two phases

Our Scope:

• Asbestos Removal
• Demolition of Buildings
• Remove Slab and Foundations
• Remove all arisings from site

The first phase Greenfield was employed to demolish the caretakers workshop and break out and remove the slab where a former building was situated.

The second phase consisted of the demolition of the two houses. This phase also consisted of removal of notifiable asbestos, slab and foundation removal and clear all materials from site.

Challenges

The biggest challenge on this project was during the first phase where the school remained live.

During the second phase the program was one week to enable the project being completed before the start of school.

Solutions

Greenfield Demolition worked closely with Beard and had a safe system procedure. All site personnel were to stop works immediately if a pupil was to enter the site. A school official would escort the pupil off site and then work would continue
