Selective & Interior Demolition
Selective demolition removes specific building elements while the structure, and often the building population, remain in place. Hospitals, airports, campuses, and transit terminals stay open while Select works. The result depends on sequencing, protection, and daily coordination with the trades that follow.
Scope
- Interior gut and strip-out to structure
- Selective structural removals: slab openings, shaft and stair cuts, facade sections
- Concrete saw-cutting, coring, and slab removal for new infills
- Whitebox interior fit-outs and asset recovery
- Removal and protection of items designated to remain
Where it applies
- Occupied hospitals, laboratories, campuses, and transit facilities
- Phased turnover where portions of a floor return to service between phases
- Third-shift work inside active airports and terminals
- Noise-, vibration-, and dust-sensitive adjacencies
What we plan with you
- Phasing and hours-of-work plans aligned with building operations
- Infection-control measures in healthcare settings
- Temporary protection, negative air, and debris routing through occupied space
- Daily coordination with the construction manager and facility staff
What we bring
- Compact excavators, skid steers, and demolition robots sized for interior work
- Concrete cutting and coring equipment
- Crews experienced in occupied-facility and night-shift operations
