Soft Strip Demolition Services Across the UK

Precision Strip-Outs for Redevelopment and Refurbishment Projects

At Spectra, we provide comprehensive soft strip demolition services — safely removing all non-structural elements of a building to prepare it for demolition, refurbishment, or repurposing. Our in-house teams manage every stage of the process, offering you one reliable contractor from start to finish.

We can strip an entire property down to its structural frame, recycling all recoverable materials and managing waste fully in accordance with Environment Agency standards.

What Is Soft Strip Demolition?

Soft stripping is the non-structural phase of demolition, in which building interiors are carefully dismantled, leaving only the structural shell intact. This includes the removal of internal fixtures, fittings, ceilings, partitions, mechanical and electrical systems, and any hazardous materials — creating a clean, safe space for redevelopment or complete demolition.

At Spectra, our approach emphasises efficiency, safety, and environmental responsibility. We prioritise re-use and recycling wherever feasible, reducing landfill impact and maximising asset recovery.
