Shed Demolition in Downton

Downton sits on the River Avon south of Salisbury, and many of its older cottages line The Borough and the streets around the Moot. Sheds on these long-established riverside plots have often stood for years, and damp near the river can leave timber soft and roofs failing. We take these weathered structures down, clear the base, and remove all the material, so a tired corner of the garden can be put back to use.

The village also has newer estates alongside its historic heart, where owners more often want a shed removed to make way for a modern replacement or to free up space. Whether it is a small rotten timber shed, a rusted metal store, or a heavy concrete-panel outbuilding, we dismantle it carefully rather than simply knocking it over, keeping mess and disturbance down.

We cover Downton, around six miles south of Salisbury, as part of our regular work across the area. Van and labour are included and we are a licensed waste carrier, so the demolition and the disposal are handled together, with nothing left behind on the plot for you to deal with.

On older sheds, and especially long-standing ones on these riverside plots, the roof sheeting may be asbestos cement. We assess for it before we start and, where it is likely, arrange safe, specialist handling instead of breaking it up. We do not remove licensed asbestos ourselves, but we make sure it is dealt with the correct way.
