    The specialists In order to demonstrate the high levels of competence and stringent Health and Safety requirements our industry dictates, LAR continues to invest heavily in a range of memberships and accreditations. As members of the Asbestos Removal Contractors Association (ARCA) we have been represented on the ARCA Governing Council for over a decade. Certifications are held for ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 demonstrating the organisation’s commitment to quality, environmental and Health and Safety procedures and processes respectively. A further six accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, Achilles, and British Safety Council. Additional accreditations have been achieved via Altius (Assured & CDM) confirming competency within a retail environment. For larger projects where LAR undertakes the role of principal contractor, we’ve engaged the Considerate Contractor Scheme – our commitment to site safety standards. Our business also benefits from having its own waste transfer station and the company is accredited with both an Environment Agency Waste Management Licence and a Waste Carriers Licence. A brief history LAR was founded in 1997 after a management buyout of Laing Asbestos Removal – part of John Laing Construction Ltd. As a result the directors and many of the operational staff have over 30 years’ experience in the removal of asbestos, having safely and effectively carried out projects across the UK, Europe and Africa with project values of up to £3.5 million. Market sectors We specialise in providing a Health and Safety conscious method of working in a wide range of industry sectors including: NHS MOD local authority leisure petro-chemical facilities management higher education retail housing associations utilities (water, gas, electric and nuclear) The future At LAR we work extremely hard to ensure that we are at the top of our game when it comes to Health and Safety, quality and performance. As members of the North West Construction Safety Group we continue to invest heavily in staff development and training. LAR has been recognised as one of the industry’s front runners in relation to operatives, supervisors and management completing the ARCA Competency Scheme. In line with new guidance LAR has also moved towards a more proactive approach to staff development and has invested a significant amount of effort in developing an industry leading Training Needs Analysis system. The significant developments in LAR’s team have been recently recognised by the ARCA Gold Training Award, the National Training Award and ARCA Gold Site Audit Award. Special recognition was achieved by securing the ARCA Gold Site Audit award for the fifth consecutive year – the only contractor in the UK to reach this achievement. Proud to be leading the way in the safe removal of asbestos and other hazardous materials. Operating an extensive range of professional services for both national and international clients. Our services LAR has the resources and infrastructure in place to offer a solution to any asbestos abatement project. Through long-standing strategic partnerships, we offer our clients a range of associated services that work seamlessly with our asbestos removal works in order to offer a total solution. Services undertaken in-house: asbestos removal, asbestos encapsulation, asbestos in soils, asbestos waste collection, asbestos decontamination, face fit testing, pigeon guano removal, reinstatement works, sharps removals and soft strip demolition. Services undertaken via strategic partners: UKAS accredited asbestos surveys (management, refurbishment and demolition), air testing, bulk samples, asbestos awareness training, demolition, decommissioning, dismantling, land remediation, contaminated land assessments, duct cleaning and licenced scaffolding. We offer all of the above on an emergency-call out basis, 24/7. Watch the video, below, it shows us working with one of our strategic partners to install a scaffold access system at Manchester Town Hall as part of a multi-million asbestos removal project. Watch our video Project examples LAR has experience of operating across a diverse range of market sectors on both a national and international scale. A significant percentage of work undertaken is generated from repeat business from long-standing client relationships. Our ethos of working with clients in order to fully understand their requirements and tailoring solutions to suit their individual needs, has resulted in repeat business year on year for over 20 years. Higher Education The Higher Education sector forms one of the largest sources of repeat business for LAR. The size, age and complexity of university estates ensures LAR has an almost continuous presence on some of the UK’s campuses. Public sector (OJEU contracts) LAR has made a concerted effort to secure long-term public sector work which is tendered via the Official Journal of the Europen Union. Although competition often comes from contractors all over the UK, LAR has secured a number of high-profile contracts based upon both quality and pricing submissions. Retail/leisure The retail sector has been specifically targeted by LAR as an area of growth in recent years and has seen the business awarded approved contractor and framework status with a number of high-profile organisations. We have adapted to this unique sector and developed systems for working within a highly challenging environment. We now service a large number of multi-site retailers on a national scale from both a planned and reactive call-out perspective. NHS The NHS has historically been a strong sector for LAR. Similarl to Higher Education, this sector has large property portfolios of diverse building types and ultimately many buildings with asbestos still present within them. Local authority Separate to the OJEU tendered contracts, LAR undertakes a significant amount of public sector work via local authority construction partners and main contractors. Some of the largest projects which LAR has undertaken have been within this sector. International Through undertaking projects of significant size and complexity within the UK, LAR has been identified as a business which has the capabilities and resources to take the high standards of the UK industry to the international marketplace. Utilities The utilities sector has been one of the largest sectors of growth for LAR in recent years. We now service clients across all sub sectors which include water, gas, electricity, petro-chemical and nuclear. Whatever the task, we can handle it. Rest assured, we have the resources and infrastructure in place to offer a solution to any asbestos abatement project. Through long-standing strategic partnerships, we also have the ability to offer our clients a range of associated services that can work seamlessly with our asbestos removal works in order to offer a total solution. Our promise LAR will continue moving forward, innovating, practicing best standards and staying ahead of legislation in order to consolidate our position at the very forefront of the asbestos removal industry. Alongside this we will be continuing to raise the bar in terms of staff development, site standards and Health and Safety. We aim to continue developing long-term relationships with regional, national and international organisations as well as helping businesses to remain compliant.

Frequently Asked Questions About Demolition Contractors

Have questions about demolition services or finding the right demolition contractor in UK? We've got answers to common inquiries:

How do I prepare for a demolition project?

Here are essential steps to prepare for a demolition project:
  • Clear the Area: Remove all personal belongings, furniture, fixtures, equipment, and any valuable items from the structure.
  • Disconnect Utilities: Arrange for the disconnection of all utilities (electricity, gas, water, sewer) well in advance of the demolition.
  • Secure the Site: Erect a fence or barrier around the demolition zone to prevent unauthorized access and ensure safety.
  • Notify Neighbors: Inform your neighbors about the upcoming demolition, including the expected timeline and any potential noise or disruptions.
  • Protect Surroundings: Cover or protect landscaping, trees, and adjacent structures that you want to preserve from potential damage from flying debris.
  • Hazardous Materials: If you suspect hazardous materials are present (e.g., asbestos, lead paint), have a qualified professional conduct an assessment and safely remove them before demolition.
  • Salvageable Materials: If you plan to salvage materials from the structure (e.g., doors, windows, fixtures), remove them carefully before demolition.
By taking these steps, you create a safer work environment and help ensure a smoother demolition process.

What is a demolition bond?

A demolition bond is a type of surety bond that protects the property owner and the local government from financial losses if the demolition contractor fails to complete the project according to the terms of the contract or fails to comply with applicable regulations. It acts as a guarantee that the contractor will perform the work as agreed upon. If the contractor defaults, the bond can be used to cover the costs of completing the demolition or to address any damages caused by the contractor's negligence.

What is the demolition process?

The demolition process typically involves the following steps:
  1. Planning and Permits: The demolition contractor will assess the site, develop a demolition plan, and obtain necessary permits from the local authorities. This includes ensuring compliance with building codes, environmental regulations, and safety standards.
  2. Disconnection of Utilities: All utilities (e.g., electricity, gas, water, sewer) will be disconnected and capped off to ensure safety during demolition.
  3. Asbestos Removal (if required): If asbestos is present, a certified asbestos abatement contractor will safely remove it before demolition begins.
  4. Protection of Surroundings: The contractor will protect surrounding structures, landscaping, and utilities from damage using barriers, fencing, and other protective measures.
  5. Demolition: The actual demolition work begins using appropriate methods and equipment, such as excavators, wrecking balls, or specialized demolition robots.
  6. Debris Removal and Sorting: Demolition debris is carefully removed, sorted (for potential recycling), and transported to an approved disposal facility.
  7. Site Cleanup: The site is cleaned and graded to prepare it for its intended use. This might involve filling in excavations, leveling the ground, and removing any remaining debris.
The exact process may vary depending on the size and complexity of the project, but safety and environmental responsibility are paramount throughout all stages.

What is the difference between demolition and deconstruction?

While the terms 'demolition' and 'deconstruction' are often used interchangeably, there is a distinction:
Demolition typically refers to the complete destruction and removal of a structure.
Deconstruction, on the other hand, is a more selective and methodical process that involves carefully dismantling a building to salvage reusable materials. It's a more sustainable approach that reduces waste and environmental impact.
If you're interested in maximizing material salvage and minimizing waste, ask potential demolition contractors about their experience with deconstruction methods.
