| New Heights Construction Management has
adapted the latest in green construction practices by offering
Green Demolition options to our customers.
Green Demolition is the selective dismantling or removal of
material from buildings in reverse order of assembly, to maximize
the re-harvest of materials for reuse.” Whether your project is
a bathroom, a kitchen, a commercial tenant improvement or a
complete site redevelopment, typically there is plenty to salvage
for reuse”.
By using deconstruction, up to 85% of a building’s major
components can be salvaged, non-useable materials are sorted and
recycled, and waste is minimized. Deconstruction is one step where
our customer’s can significantly reduce environmental impacts.
Goals of Green Demolition are:
- Divert demolition debris from landfills
- Recover materials for reuse and recycling
- Contribute to the environmental and economic health of the
community
- Provide a safe and healthy work environment
- Regard necessary building removals as a community
development opportunity
- Retain historic building character in a community.
