Demolition in Witham: what to know
Witham expanded rapidly as a London overspill town from the 1960s, so most homes sit on planned estates either side of the railway, with industrial estates at Freebournes and Eastways and newer housing off Maltings Lane. The town's own recycling centre on Perry Road takes cars only, closes on Thursdays and does not accept DIY waste or rubble.
New housing in Witham is concentrated on the edges: Rivenhall Park off Forest Road, with 385 homes complete and a further 230 approved; Lodge Farm, masterplanned for 750 dwellings; New Gimson Place, a 78-home scheme; and Woodend Farm, with about 400 homes planned. The overspill estates are of an age that typically brings refurbishment and extension work. Newland Street lies in a conservation area, where demolition and external changes are more closely controlled, and Chipping Hill is the older of the two historic cores, so skip positions in both need agreeing in advance.
New-build estates have tight roads and little parking, so we send the smaller truck and keep the stop short. 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.
Check with Braintree District Council about any permissions or demolition notice before agreeing a start date. Tell us if you suspect asbestos so any specialist work can be arranged before demolition.
