Industrial Dismantling and Decommissioning

Industrial Dismantling and Decommissioning Across the UK

Sparrow Installation Services provides industrial dismantling and decommissioning for plant and machinery. We safely disconnect, dismantle and remove machinery ready for relocation, storage or disposal, working to a planned method that keeps the site safe and on schedule.

Dismantling is the first stage of the project lifecycle, and it links directly to our machine moving, factory relocation and installation services, so the same team can strip out, move and reinstall your plant. We are based in Bristol and work across the South West and nationwide.

Our Dismantling Services

Machinery Dismantling

We dismantle machinery and production lines in a planned sequence, labelling and protecting components so the plant can be reassembled and reinstalled correctly.

Plant Decommissioning

We decommission plant by safely disconnecting services and isolating machinery, preparing it for dismantling, removal and either relocation or disposal.

Factory Strip Out

We strip out factories and production facilities, clearing machinery and equipment to hand back an empty space ready for its next use.

How We Dismantle Safely

  1. Site survey: we assess the machinery, the services and the access.
  2. Method statement: we plan the disconnection and dismantling sequence and the risk controls.
  3. Dismantling: our engineers disconnect, dismantle and label the machinery.
  4. Removal: we move the plant out for relocation, storage or disposal.

We dismantle and remove machinery with:

  • Forklifts, gantries and skates for handling components
  • Jacking and skating for breaking down heavy plant
  • Step frame and plant trailers for removal

    Industrial Dismantling FAQs

    What does industrial dismantling involve?

    Industrial dismantling is the planned disconnection, breaking down and removal of machinery and production lines, carried out to a method statement so the plant can be relocated, stored or disposed of safely.

    What is the difference between dismantling and decommissioning?

    Decommissioning is safely disconnecting and isolating machinery so it is no longer live. Dismantling is breaking it down and removing it. We handle both as one managed job.

    Can you dismantle machinery for relocation and reinstall it?

    Yes. We label and protect components as we dismantle, then move, and where required store, the machinery before reinstalling and commissioning it at its new location.

    How much does industrial dismantling cost?

    Cost depends on the machinery, the services to disconnect and the removal involved. Send us the details and we will provide a free quote.
