Demolition Health and Safety
When planning your demolition project, there are several health and safety related factors which must be taken into consideration and properly dealt with. Advance planning and the correct levels of risk assessment are key to achieving the very best possible outcome.
If you have any questions about demolition site safety and ensuring your site meets all necessary safety requirements, then get in touch with a member of our demolition team today for more details.
All businesses should have a health and safety policy that underlies their operations and should also have a designated “competent person” who can recognise potential hazards and rectify them.
Although the demolition company is ultimately responsible for the on-site safety of its employees, risk management happens both at a business-wide and an individual level.
A demolition site produces a higher than average risk of injury, not just for demolition contractors but for visitors on-site and passers-by.
Common risk factors on a demolition site include a range of safety risks which you may not have considered. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask one of our team of demolition experts for more information.
Quality Assurance
We have carried out demolition projects all over the south of England, including London, Sussex, Kent, Surrey, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Essex, Hertfordshire and Hampshire. To see examples of our demolition work, visit our case studies page.
The Demolition Process
We have demolished buildings and structures of most sizes, for a variety of reasons and each project has its unique requirements. However, to ensure the project is carried out safely and efficiently there is usually a standard project framework that should be followed. Here we explain the demolition process in more detail.
When site clearance work is required, Rabbit Demolition can provide a range of demolition options to suit the specifics of your site, removing all unwanted materials using modern equipment and the highest levels of expertise, with every attention paid to relevant safety regulations.

Sustainability and the Environment
As part of the Rabbit Group, all demolition waste produced in the surrounding area is transported on our own fleet of dedicated vehicles to our modern Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) located in Lancing, Sussex which is also the treatment facility for the entire Rabbit skip and rolonof fleet collecting waste throughout Sussex.
Upon arrival the waste is assessed then sorted mechanically to remove any material that can be reused or recycled with the remaining residue being recovered into one of two fuel types.
Biomass/wood, which we use as fuel in our own onsite Energy recovery Facility to generate 5 megawatts of green electricity which powers approximately 8,000 homes or refuse derived fuel (RDF) which is supplied to other local power stations for energy generation.
The Waste Hierarchy is applied, and all waste transported to Lancing is reused, recycled or recovered. At Rabbit we do not resort to landfilling material as so many of our competitors still do.
