Site hoarding and safety fencing for demolition
Demolition hoarding is the safety fencing around the plot that protects the public and neighbours while the villa is demolished.
The short answer
The licensed demolition contractor sets up the hoarding before works start. In master communities, developer requirements may also apply. We confirm what is needed for your plot.
