Project Overview
Matthews (Sussex) Ltd were contracted to act as principal contractor for Bellway Homes to undertake the soft strip, asbestos removal and mechanical demolition of the former golf club, green keepers’ warehouse and living accommodation.
Particular care had to be taken as there was a live public footpath that went straight past the site as well as part of the golf course remaining live to the existing members. Boundary fencing was erected, welfare established, and a number of demolition specific pieces of plant arrived on site. Recycling of material on this site was of particular importance to the client and Matthews made every effort to achieve a recycling rate of over 95%.
