Façade Retention & Partial Demolition Project | DMC Group UK

DMC Group was appointed as Principal Contractor to carry out partial demolition works on a live site while retaining the building’s original front façade. The project required expert engineering solutions and careful sequencing to preserve the character of the structure while safely preparing the site for future development.
Project Overview
This project involved major demolition work on a city-centre site. DMC Group removed the rear and internal parts of the building. The original front façade was kept in place and supported during all works. DMC acted as the Principal Contractor and managed the project from start to finish.
Key Goals
Keep and protect the front façade
Remove internal and rear structures
Clear the site for future building work
Ensure safety in a busy urban area
How We Did It
We worked with structural engineers to design a strong steel support frame. This held the façade safely during demolition. All work was done under strict safety controls. We used:
Dust suppression
Vibration monitoring
Live site supervision
This helped us meet health, safety, and environmental rules.
Outcome
The project finished on time with no issues. The front façade was fully preserved. The cleared site is now ready for new development. This project shows DMC’s skill in safe, complex demolition and protecting historic features.
