Group have been providing a competitive, efficient and

environmentally sensitive service for blue chip companies

specialist equipment and the dedication to customer

service which will ensure that the project is completed

efficiently, safely, on time and within budget.


Services

Demolition (1 of 2)

Effective, safe demolition on industrial, commercial and

public sector sites calls for specialist experience, skills and

equipment.

Murtagh Demolition has all three - wide experience of

full and partial demolition within the tightest physical and

time constraints, a fully trained workforce, and the

specialist equipment required for the most difficult or

intricate work.


Services

Demolition (2 of 2)

Murtagh Demolition's service has three other important

benefits - the flexibility offered by a round-the-clock

demolition capability, a "green" attitude towards on-site

materials processing and recycling and perhaps most

importantly, the benefit of a high quality service at a

competitive price.


Services

Re-Cycling (1 of 2)

Murtagh were the first in the UK to purchase the Vermeer

TG400 Tub Grinder in 1995. Murtagh were also the first

company in the UK to purchase the Vermeer TG400AL Self

Loading Tub Grinder with anti-throw device in 2000.

We now have 2 TG400AL Tub Grinders covering the UK on

a contract to hire basis, grinding both wood waste and

green waste.


Services

Re-Cycling (2 of 2)

Murtagh have been processing Liverpool City Council

green waste for the past seven years and in that time

have also worked for Manchester, Oldham and Luton

Councils.

The Tub Grinders have worked form Cornwall to Scotland,

processing wood waste and green waste for static

operators, recycling on their site for land clearance works,

as well as commercial and residential developments.


Case Studies

Oil Tank Dismantling

Murtagh undertook the dismantling of an oil tanker, 25M

in diameter and 16M high, within an operational plant.

This task was carried out just meters away from building

that continued to process fuel and oil products throughout

the dismantling of this tank. The dismantling of this tank

was carried out using cold cutting methods to prepare the

tank to be cold cut by a 25M long reach excavator with

shear attachment.


Case Studies

Asbestos Removal & Hospital Demolition

This is the second large hospital that Murtagh have been

involved in carrying out an extensive asbestos removal

contract prior to demolition works commencing. Large

volumes of tiles, timber and bricks were salvaged from the

works along with a crushing and screening operation

processing 60,000 tonnes of 6F1 Grade 8 and Type 1

material for re-use on the site.


Case Studies

Complex Town Centre Demolition

This particular job was in a town centre. Murtagh were

nominated demolition contractor due to our experience in

successfully completing projects of such complexity.

The building to be demolished was a three storey brick

structure with basement, adjoining a jewellers shop and

County hall. The works had to be carried out by hand

demolition with the only access being out onto the main

street.
