How we price demolition →Demolition in Maldon: what to know
Maldon is a market town on the Blackwater estuary with a historic High Street running down to Hythe Quay and large new estates being built along Limebrook Way and Wycke Hill as part of the South Maldon Garden Suburb. Heybridge, across the river, adds trade and industrial premises around The Causeway.
Large-scale building around Maldon is concentrated in two garden suburbs: the south Maldon sites at Wycke Hill, planned for about 1,000 homes, and Westcombe Park at Heybridge, with more than 1,000. In the old town, work is mainly refurbishment and extension of period houses, and in parts of the conservation area Article 4 Directions mean that certain works normally permitted need planning permission. The narrow streets off the High Street, the gradients of Market Hill and Cromwell Hill and the unmade surface of Lodge Road all constrain where skip lorries can go.
On Maldon's terraced streets there's rarely a drive, so the truck stops in the road, right by the front door. Send photos of the structure and the access and we'll send a free estimate for demolition, loading and disposal. If the job turns out different on the day, with more to take down or harder access than described, we agree any change with you before we start.
Domestic outbuildings rarely need permission, but check with Maldon District Council if the building is listed, in a conservation area or attached to a neighbour's wall. Asbestos cement roofs are removed first by a licensed contractor.
