Selective demolition involves the careful removal of specific structural elements, walls or systems, while leaving other parts of the structure untouched. This is a common approach for historical structures where preservation is the key to success.
Three steps in the selective demolition process:
1. Site Walk & Project Evaluation
We begin by evaluating the building and identifying exactly which components will be removed, any potential challenges or hazards involved with the removal, and determine the best course of action for demolition or deconstruction.
2. Environmental Assessments
Our team will inspect the site for potential hazards, such as asbestos, lead, or mold, and identify if any environmental risks are present or require additional inspection prior to any work being done onsite. We have safety protocols in place to protect our workers, the community and the surrounding area.
3. Targeted Demolition Execution
Using modern equipment and skilled operators, we carefully remove targeted areas with minimal disruption to the structure.
Selective demolition requires precision, planning, and a highly trained team. At GCD | PDI we ensure your project is completed safely, on-time and on-budget while meeting the highest industry standards.
Tailored Demolition Services, Built Around Your Project Needs
At GCD | PDI, we understand that no two demolition projects are alike. Whether you are planning a commercial site redevelopment, or structural retrofit, our estimating and engineering teams work closely with you to design a solution that meets your goals Our focus is on safe, selective demolition that keeps your project moving forward without unnecessary delays.
Selective demolition is ideal when your building is structurally sound, but specific areas need to be renovated or demolished. This cost-effective option minimizes waste, maximizes material reuse, and allows for greater flexibility in renovation or expansion projects.
Use selective demolition for:
- Interior remodeling and renovations
- Asbestos removal or hazardous material abatement
- Site remediation
- Building extensions
- Historic building preservation
At GCD | PDI, every project begins with a clear strategy. When a structure must remain partially intact, selective demolition is the method of choice. It demands detailed planning, specialized equipment, and technical expertise to deliver results safely and efficiently.
