What is building demolition?

Demolition, or razing, is the science and engineering in safely and efficiently tearing down buildings and other artificial structures. Demolition contrasts with deconstruction, which involves taking a building apart while carefully preserving valuable elements for reuse purposes.

Why should I hire the best building demolishers in Cape Town?

Our building demolishers are the best at what they do so you can be at ease while they demolish the building that you need.

What will be the cost of hiring a building demolisher?

The demolition cost of a building is usually tied to its square footage. Once our building demolishers see how much work has to be done and how big the building that needs to be demolished is, then they can give you a quote. Worry not though as Snupit provides the fairest and most competitive rates in Cape Town.

What technique is used to demolish a building?

The technique used to demolish a building involves strategically placing explosive charges to remove a building's support structure so that it collapses on itself, causing little-to-no damage to its surroundings.

What explosives are used to for building demolition?

Nitroglycerin, dynamite or other explosives are used to shatter reinforced concrete supports. Linear shaped charges are used to sever steel supports. These explosives are progressively detonated on supports throughout the structure. Then, explosives on the lower floors initiate the controlled collapse.

How long does it take for a building to collapse?

It takes about eight seconds for the building to implode. Of course, the whole process starts before the building starts to come down, and continues after it has been reduced to rubble.
