Managing a Leading Demolition
Contractor's Business

At Shady Lane we have invested £6,000,000 re-developing a six-acre site. Acting as Client, Management and Principal Contractor we were responsible for the construction of offices, workshops and specialist demolition waste recycling washing plant.

High specification offices incorporating modern IT systems, control communications, security, weighbridge and fuel management. The workshops include heavy craneage, exhaust extraction amongst other facilities maintaining our extensive fleet of equipment.

The recycling plant is the first of it’s kind in the UK developed to recycle materials from demolition projects. The material is washed removing all deleterious material, producing suitable classifications of sands and gravels. The process is so unique that it attracted a maximum contribution of £391,000.00 from WRAP. A Government funded body, demonstrating their commitment to our innovation.
