"Carlsberg doesn't do Demolition firms, but if they did ... they would be Dem-Master.  We have had the pleasure of working with Dem-Master on several significant projects over the years and we have been lucky to have a front-row seat to witness the continual improvements in safety standards throughout the group of companies.
Dem-Master has tackled some of the most complex Demolition contracts in Scotland in recent years, and yet enjoy an accident to man-hour ratio which would be the envy of any company, even in less hazardous industries.
I feel this is due to the level of planning the managerial staff put into place at an early stage in the process and the discussions held with all stakeholders including site operatives and site staff at the vital panning stage to ensure things are as accurate as possible."
