Extensive structural damage and remodeling require the removal of large structures, either for aesthetic purposes or because they threaten the entire building. Continue reading to identify some scenarios where our demolition services are essential to be able to revitalize your property:
Fire Damage: After a fire damages your property, our demolition services can restore it to a safe and hygienic environment. The devastating effects of a blaze will quickly permeate through rooms, weakening the property’s structure. Furthermore, flames are extremely effective at spreading contaminants and intense heat throughout an entire home—dirt and soot from smoke can settle into drywall and paint layers. Hiring a demolition service will enable one to easily remove the damaged areas of one’s property, clearing the way for rebuilding and improvement.
Water Damage: Excessive exposure to moisture is debilitating to the inside of any business or home. Standing water swiftly compromises the structural integrity of retaining walls and support structures. Moisture also contributes to toxic mold growth in the wall, as well as the presence among these dangerous spores can drastically lower the air quality. Demolishing infested areas can protect your guests and family from inhaling airborne pathogens. In water, additional damage can short out electrical equipment built into the home.
Home or Business Renovations: Remodeling a home or business is a strenuous yet rewarding endeavor. Many Delmarva area home and business owners worry about the multiple tons of garbage that result from the procedure of demolishing walls to create more open space. Fortunately, not all remodeling jobs require homeowners to trash old materials. Many full or partial remodeling projects can benefit from deconstruction techniques over typical demolition. If the materials produced by your demolition are undamaged and functional, they can be incorporated into the redesign. Deconstruction aims to maximize the amount of reusable materials salvaged with strategic, sustainable demolition practices.
Comprehensive demolition requires expert demolition services. Apex Construction will clear and secure your site making it safe and useable for re-construction. Contact us today for more information.
The owner of Apex Construction, Juan Franzetti, offers some tips for success to fleet managers interested in setting up an in - house maintenance program for their construction vehicles:
1. Be sure to create a sound preventive maintenance program that takes into account all of the systems and equipment on your residential and commercial construction fleet vehicles. Furthermore, be consistent about its implementation. Juan has a checklist that is used routinely to ensure comprehensive check-ups.
2. Ensure that your equipment operators are constantly trained in the most up - to - date procedures, technologies, and test equipment. Training of your construction crew never stops. It is your responsibility as fleet manager to provide them with the tools that they need to do their jobs.
3. "You get what you inspect, not expect," Juan says. Create accountability in the organization from top to bottom. Use internal audits to hold employees responsible for their use and service of the equipment. Apex uses a time card method to help identify problems that need solutions. Mechanical productivity reports provide information by vehicle, branch, and location. Other reports allow for review of mileage, fuel, oil usage, and miles per gallon. Juan's reports enable the company to track costs by current month, year-to-date, and life of the construction vehicle. "In the future, we expect to use electronic pads to record our own data processing at a central facility in mid-town Ocean City," says Juan.
4. Evaluate your employees regularly. At Apex Construction, equipment operators are re-certified on preventive maintenance inspection quarterly.
5. Roll out your program in the areas where you have your largest concentration of construction vehicles first.
6. Respect your equipment operators as competent service technicians.
Juan emphasizes competent equipment operators. "A good, well-trained individual will always be employed," Juan says. "The knowledge that today's operators must acquire in regard to vehicle systems, tools and testing equipment is overwhelming," says Juan.
Selective Demolition or Interior demolition is when only parts of a building are removed but the structure remains intact. In this case we were asked to remove everything on the interior of this retail space to make way for a new tenant. We had to demolish all the floors, this included tile, carpetĀ and composite vinyl flooring. We then had to grind down the floors and remove all glue and thin set for allow for the new floor finishes. We also had to remove the suspended ceiling system, the ceiling system grid, all the duct work and the plumbing lines. We removed 2 hot water heaters, and all the bathroom appliances. We then had to patch any holes on the concrete floors. We got this done in 2 1/2 days.
