How we price demolition →Demolition in Rayleigh: what to know
Rayleigh and the SS6 postcode: heavy on family homes, garden extensions and the kind of clearances that go with both.
New building is concentrated at Wolsey Park, on Rayleigh's western edge between London Road and Rawreth Lane, a development of over 500 homes with open space and sports pitches. Rochford District's allocations plan also earmarked Rawreth Industrial Estate for about 220 dwellings. In the conservation area, designated in 1969 with 24 listed buildings, an Article 4 direction was proposed to control changes to windows, doors, render and boundaries. A one-way system set up in 1972 uses the High Street and Websters Way, which limits where a skip lorry can stop in the centre.
For shops and offices in the centre we collect before opening, because loading bays are restricted through the day. 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 Rochford 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.
Fifteen minutes door-to-door from Wickford. Rayleigh's our second-most-booked town after Wickford itself.
