An investment that lets us recycle almost everything that comes through our gates, entirely in-house, on our own site.

What We Do

Structural, High-Reach and Specialist Demolition, Done In-House

From a single building to a multi-site clearance, we handle demolition, decontamination and recycling with one team, on projects nationwide and across Berkshire. Everything is processed back at Reading Quarry.

Case in Point

Four Former RAF Buildings, One Section 80 Agreement

Demolished under a Section 80 agreement, materials reused on site.

J Mould demolished four former UKAEA and RAF buildings under a Section 80 agreement, reusing the materials on site as compacted 6F2 with plate load testing, and retaining a heritage trail to keep the site's story alive.

It's the kind of project that shows what an in-house demolition and recycling operation can actually do, from planning through to material reuse.

EQUIPMENT & FLEET

Owned Outright, Ready When the Job Needs It

Every demolition project runs on plant and vehicles we own.

Roll-on/roll-off lorries, articulated bulkers, 32-tonne tippers, low loaders, walking floor trailers, HIAB cranes and grab lorries, with FORS accreditation and DVSA Earned Recognition across the fleet.

Articulated Bulkers

Our articulated bulkers handle high-volume haulage for large demolition and clearance jobs, moved efficiently off site.

Roll-On/Roll-Off Lorries

Our 8-wheel hook loader roll-on/roll-off lorries give fast turnaround for skip and container waste removal, on and off site quickly, and can be deployed for hazardous waste removal as each project requires.

HGV Tipper Trucks

Our HGV tipper trucks transport aggregates and construction waste safely and efficiently to and from sites across Berkshire, operated by our own experienced drivers.

Walking Floor Trailers

Our BMI walking floor trailers carry up to 24,000kg of waste and are built to landfill specification, so your load is accepted without complication wherever it is headed.

Low Loaders

Our low loaders carry up to 80,000kg gross weight, with a 50,000kg maximum carrying capacity, matched to the load on every machinery transport job we take on.

Skip Lorries

Our skip lorries deliver 6, 8 and 12 yard skips, taking everything we collect straight to our own recycling facility.

Grab Lorries

Our 8-wheel grab lorries reach over a wall or fence and lift straight from where the material sits, for muck away, construction waste and site clearance.

HIAB Lorries

Our HIAB lorries lift and load in confined spaces where a larger vehicle cannot set up. Every lift is planned against the crane’s load chart before the vehicle leaves the yard.

Our Process

How We Plan and Run a Demolition Project

Site Survey & Planning

We assess the structure, check for asbestos and other hazards, and plan the safest, most efficient method for bringing it down.

Licensing & Approvals

We handle the paperwork, from waste carrier documentation to any Section 80 or local authority approvals the project needs, before any work starts.

Site Setup & Safety

We secure the site, set up safety measures, and brief every team member before any demolition work begins, in full compliance with regulations.

Demolition Works

We bring the structure down using the method best suited to the site, whether that's structural, high-reach or robotic demolition.

Recycling & Clearance

Demolition waste goes to our own Materials Recycling Facility, processed on site and returned as recycled aggregate wherever possible, closing the loop on site.

In-House Recycling

Demolition Waste Leaves as Recycled Aggregate

What comes down is crushed, screened and graded at our own Materials Recycling Facility at Reading Quarry, and goes back out as recycled aggregate. Across everything we collect, 98.06% is recycled rather than sent to landfill.
