    About Asbestos in Caulking

    What is Soft Strip Demolition?

    Soft Strip Demolition (also known as enabling works) refers to the environmentally conscious process of removing all non-structural elements from the interior and exterior of a building, in order to appropriately prepare for structural alterations while keeping the existing framework in place. These alterations can include demolition, refurbishment/renovation or re-modelling works. 

    Non-structural soft strip out works often include the removal of:

    • Fixtures and fittings
    • Internal walls and ceilings
    • Temporary structures
    • M&E fixtures (mechanical & electrical fixtures, e.g. wiring, lighting, power outlets, etc.)
    • Floor coverings

        Why is Soft Strip Demolition Important?

        • Safety: A non-structural strip out keeps you safe from hazardous materials, such as asbestos, lead-based paint, construction dust and electrical wiring, during the demolition process.
        • Environmental Impact: Enabling works also allow our soft strip contractors to salvage any valuable materials and recycle them, e.g. metals, wood, various fixtures, etc.
        • Proper Preparation for Structural Alterations: Non-mechanical deconstruction is essential prior to demolition, refurbishment or remodelling works, as it exposes all underlying structural components. This allows the follow-on contractor to assess the condition of the structure, identify any potential hazards and plan further works accordingly.
