Engineered solutions - safe, simple, secure.

Over the last 20 years, the type of work that Colemans has carried out has changed beyond recognition. For many years our work was dealing with low rise, simply constructed buildings up to eight storeys – built from the same materials, to the same sort of design. Now, it is far more complex.

As a contractor tasked with removing, altering and retrofitting the most complex of structures, constructed with constantly changing materials, using alternative design techniques and often in close proximity to other buildings, we must ensure that no damage or risk is allowed whilst carrying out our work. 

Our CEO is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Building, a qualified demolition engineer, a member of the Institute of Demolition Engineers and an associate of the Institute of Explosive Engineers.  He understands the importance of design and engineered delivery – termed by Colemans as ‘demolition by design’ – and in 2012 we set up our in-house design engineering department. 

We now have the knowledge and capabilities to prove that our proposals are suitable, adequate and safe. Our projects section showcases examples of what we can achieve.

We provide engineered deconstruction services, each project is assessed the minute it comes to us. Our team of experienced engineers then set the strategy for the projects execution ensuring that our delivery team provide safe and efficient methods and technologies. Each focussing on Quality, safety and accountability.
