Demolishing is a job that takes a lot of coordination, planning, and skill to execute. When you’re deciding to hire a demolition company to tear down anything, you want to be sure that the company you’re hiring operates safely, reliably, and to the highest environmental standards.
In this blog, we’ve outlined four important qualifications that a demolition company should have in order for them to be the best choice for your job.
Safety
In a general job site safety, a good demolition company should always follow the health and safety protocols for its workers and the public.
For Walia Environmental Constructions Inc (WEC), job site safety includes WSIB certifications for our whole team and ongoing health and safety training on a quarterly basis. We also have team members that have specialized certifications, including:
- Working at Heights Training
- Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS)
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Asbestos Types 1, 2
- and more
We are firm believers that everyone should go home healthy and injury-free!
Attention to detail
No two demolition projects are the same. Each has unique requirements and specifications that responsible demolition companies must meet.
For each project, our team goes through an in-depth process that includes:
- Pre-project planning
- Project Kickoff
- Site assessments
- Health and safety assessment
- Regular site cleanups
- And more
When the project is over, we provide a job review survey to our customers to ensure that our project was completed to their satisfaction.
Environmental Construction responsibility
A good demolition company should recycle and repurpose all ferrous and non-ferrous metal demolished on our jobs.
Following recycling best practices is important in the construction and demolition (C&D) industry because C&D waste accounts for 27% of the total municipal solid waste disposed of in landfills.
