Construction Contracting

NCS Limited undertakes technical demolition and structural concrete projects, by combining traditional demolition skills with engineer led enabling, civil engineering and structural formwork expertise.
Supported by the specialist Concrete Cutting and Asbestos Removal Divisions, we provide professional services for the delivery of multi-dimensional projects, both in challenging central London locations and nationally.

We implement rigorous environmental monitoring controls on our sites to safeguard the local environment and reduce our CO2 emissions. By prioritizing reuse, recovery, and recycling, we successfully divert up to 98.9% of our materials from landfill, minimizing waste and promoting sustainability.

Our teams consist of highly trained Supervisors and Operatives, guided by experienced Project Managers. Each site benefits from the support of a dedicated Health, Safety, and Compliance department, alongside qualified Engineers and seasoned Directors who bring extensive expertise in their respective fields.

Construction Plant Machinery

The quality of our workforce, coupled with our investment in state-of-the-art plant and equipment, guarantees the safe, efficient, and successful delivery of every project.

Pre-Construction Services & Advice

Our Pre-Construction services undertaken by NCS are essential elements for all-party collaboration to guarantee project vision and a successful outcome long before the first excavator breaks the ground. Early engagement is a key element to the success of any development. It is also where the majority of all cost savings will occur, ensuring projects remain financially solvent, hence being known as the ‘Game Changer’.

At this stage, we focus on enhancing value and minimizing risk by offering early guidance on key pre-construction activities. This includes commercial management, project methodology, scheduling, design coordination, and stakeholder engagement. 

Taking proactive steps to implement carbon reduction strategies is crucial during this phase, as it offers the greatest opportunity to influence the project’s overall environmental impact.

A comprehensive understanding of the project, its logistics, and safe solutions fosters collaboration, encourages innovation, and drives successful results. Tools like virtual reality, BIM, and 3D visualization support this process by effectively showcasing proposed designs and project timelines to clients and stakeholders.

With the diverse range of specialist businesses within Nationwide Construction Services, we adopt a comprehensive approach to early planning by leveraging their expertise to align project timelines seamlessly, maximizing efficiency. Our pre-construction services provide clear insights into our commitments and serve as a true game changer for your project.

Demolition and Strip Out

Often employed as Principal Contractor for developers,we also undertake sub-contract works for Main Contractors and are frequently employed as a consultant to produce Construction Management Plans to aid Planning Applications.
Our specialist demolition capabilities address the complex and demanding sites we work on throughout London and the Southeast. Our returning clients and repeat business over the years reflect their trust in these capabilities.

We specialize in working within occupied premises and along busy pedestrian routes, with extensive experience managing Network Rail and LUL interfaces. Given the nature of our work, we remain mindful of our surroundings, striving to minimize our impact on businesses, people, and the local environment, including flora and fauna, whenever possible.

Temporary Support

With increasing demand to retain and preserve architectural heritage, many of our projects require extensive temporary works in addition to the retention of the structure’s facade.
Our London projects often require structural shoring and jacking, to protect the integrity of the building, or that of adjacent properties. Our in-house structural engineering team incorporate vision and innovation in each technical design, having many challenging Party Wall Awards to their credit.

Depending on the specific requirements of the project, we utilize a range of support systems, including structural steel props, wailings, shores, tubular struts, sheet piling, scaffolding, and various combinations of preformed sections.

Our demolition teams have extensive expertise in managing challenges related to party wall and basement support works. They are often engaged by architects, engineers, and construction companies to perform preliminary exploratory work, entirely separate from our demolition contracts.

Tower Block Deconstruction

NCS specialise in high-rise tower block deconstruction. With decades of expertise, they are pioneers of this specialist service.
Deconstructing tower blocks requires specialist expertise, meticulous planning, and a deep understanding of structural integrity, health and safety regulations, and environmental impact. Unlike traditional demolition, tower block deconstruction is a controlled and systematic process designed to dismantle multi-storey buildings with precision, ensuring minimal disruption to surrounding areas and maximum recovery of recyclable materials.

At NCS, we undertake tower block deconstruction projects across the UK, working in close collaboration with local authorities, housing associations, developers, and structural engineers. Our approach prioritises safety, sustainability, and community impact at every stage of the process.

Each project begins with a full structural assessment and environmental survey to identify hazardous materials such as asbestos, lead, or contaminated insulation. Our team then develops a bespoke deconstruction plan tailored to the site’s unique characteristics, incorporating dust suppression, noise control, and waste management strategies.

Using specialist equipment and techniques, the building is carefully dismantled floor by floor, starting from the top down. This method reduces the risk of uncontrolled collapse and allows for the careful removal of materials such as concrete, steel, and brick for recycling or reuse. We also coordinate closely with utility providers to ensure safe disconnection and minimal service disruption.

Tower block deconstruction plays a key role in urban regeneration, paving the way for new housing, public spaces, or commercial developments. By choosing a structured deconstruction approach, local authorities and developers can benefit from lower environmental impact, reduced risk to the public, and greater opportunities to recover value from existing assets.

Concrete Cutting / Diamond Drilling

The Concrete Cutting Division supplies an environmentally agreeable alternative to traditional demolition techniques. Teams of fully qualified operatives operate a vast fleet of contemporary machinery and provide technical support to any construction project.
Typical applications apply when working in confined spaces such as basements, where access is tight or where emissions from conventional diesel engines would prove unacceptable.
Diamond Drilling

Vibration-free precision cutting is essential when working near party walls or in areas where noise pollution is a concern. Our concrete sawing and diamond drilling techniques are fast and nearly silent, allowing for uninterrupted work and ensuring that project deadlines are met.

Diamond Drilling

We utilize the latest concrete Wall Shaving, Plunge Cutting, and ‘Stealth’ technology, which includes a remotely operated, fully automated diamond wire sawing rig. This advanced system is capable of cutting through metal without generating dust or requiring lubrication.
