Demolition Works, Wickham Wool Sheds (2022)
In 2022, Novo Demo Group was engaged to undertake the demolition of the Wickham Wool Sheds, a significant industrial site requiring careful planning, coordination, and execution. Novo Demo was initially engaged directly by the client, allowing early involvement in project planning, methodology development, and risk identification. This direct engagement enabled the team to establish a clear understanding of the client’s objectives and site-specific requirements from the outset.
Project Management & Stakeholder Coordination
As the project progressed, oversight and coordination of the works transitioned to a consulting firm, who assumed project management responsibilities. Novo Demo worked collaboratively with the consultant and all key stakeholders to ensure seamless communication, compliance with revised project controls, and alignment with broader project outcomes.
Scope of Works
Throughout all stages of the works, Novo Demo maintained a strong commitment to delivering demolition to the highest standard. This included:
- Implementing rigorous safety management systems to ensure a zero-harm environment
- Applying best-practice demolition techniques and methodologies
- Ensuring strict environmental controls, including dust, noise, and waste management
- Delivering works efficiently while maintaining programme and quality expectations
Outcome
Novo Demo’s proactive approach, technical expertise, and commitment to excellence ensured that the demolition of the Wickham Wool Sheds was completed safely, efficiently, and in line with both client and consultant expectations.
