Selective demolition involves a few steps. First, a professional demolition company comes to your site. Experts investigate the property, looking for unusual circumstances or requirements. They examine the types of materials in the building, existing structures, connected utility services, etc. After a detailed survey, they create a plan. Before work begins, professionals cut and cap plumbing and electrical lines. The unaffected portion of your structure can continue operating normally once this safety measure is complete.
