Demolition & dismantling Chichester
Local demolition & dismantling in Chichester
We take down sheds, summerhouses, greenhouses, garden walls, decking and non-structural internal features, and remove every scrap of the waste.
Light demolition and dismantling in Chichester covers everything from rotten sheds to old decking and garden walls. Chichester is about twenty miles west of our Worthing base along the A27, around forty minutes by road, so we book Chichester work in planned slots. We work in gardens and homes across Chichester city centre, Summersdale, Parklands, Whyke and Donnington.
We take the structure down, break it up and take every scrap away, recycling timber, metal and rubble where possible, and leave your Chichester garden clear.
Saw one of there trucks driving through Worthing, called the number today. Sent a picture of what we needed clear. They came back straight away with a price and were able to pick it all up on the same day. Really friendly team and great service. Will definitely be using this company again.

Our demolition work is small-scale and non-structural. We work on garden buildings, boundary features and internal items such as kitchens, bathrooms and stud partitions. For anything involving structural walls, foundations or larger buildings, you need an engineer and a specialist demolition contractor, and we will tell you honestly if your job falls into that category.

Local knowledge
Demolition & dismantling in Chichester: what we know locally
Every town has its own quirks. These are the things that shape demolition & dismantling jobs in Chichester.
Chichester gardens
Chichester's suburban gardens are generous, and the older homes in Summersdale and around the city often have mature trees, tall hedges and several outbuildings. Harbour-side and coastal gardens suffer from salt wind and damp. We clear green waste, old sheds, greenhouses and garden furniture across the district.
Coast and seafront
Selsey, Bosham, the Witterings and the harbour villages include many holiday homes, chalets and beach huts. We clear holiday lets between seasons and remove weather-damaged timber and furniture from coastal properties.
Conservation areas and period homes
Chichester city centre is a conservation area with a large number of listed buildings. We take great care with historic staircases, doorways, floors and walls, and work considerately in narrow streets.
Homes in Chichester
Inside the city walls, Chichester has Georgian and older townhouses, many listed, with narrow staircases, cellars and small courtyards. Summersdale, Parklands, Whyke and Donnington are mostly inter-war and post-war semis and detached houses, while Graylingwell and the newer developments on the edge of the city are modern family homes and apartments. Selsey and the Witterings have a lot of bungalows, holiday homes and chalets.

Specialist demolition & dismantling services in Chichester
As part of our demolition & dismantling service in Chichester, we also provide:
Residential demolition
Home projects often start with something coming down: an old shed or summerhouse, a crumbling garden wall, rotten decking, a dated kitchen or a stud wall. We dismantle it and take all the waste away in one visit.
Commercial projects often need non-structural elements taken down before work can start: office partitions, suspended ceilings, old fit-outs, mezzanine shelving, yard stores and outbuildings. We dismantle them and clear the waste.
Timber sheds and summerhouses are dismantled panel by panel, roof felt and glass are removed carefully, and the timber is separated for recycling where possible. We can also break up and remove concrete bases if you want the ground cleared completely.
Older sheds and garages sometimes have corrugated cement roof sheets. These can contain asbestos and must not be broken up. If you are unsure, tell us before we arrive and we will advise you on getting it checked.
Walls, fencing, decking and patios
We take down low garden walls, fencing, pergolas, decking and raised beds, and break up patios and paths. All of the rubble, timber and soil is removed. If the wall is a boundary or retaining wall, check with your neighbour and a structural professional first, as these can have legal and safety implications.
Clean rubble is taken for recycling into aggregate, and timber is recycled where possible.
How demolition & dismantling in Chichester works
Chichester is about twenty miles west of our Worthing base along the A27, around forty minutes by road, so we book Chichester work in planned slots. Here is how a typical demolition & dismantling job in Chichester works:
1
Send us photos
WhatsApp a few pictures of the waste and the route to the road, or call 01903 962 492. Tell us your postcode and when suits you.
2
Get a clear price
We reply with a fixed quote based on what we can see. No hidden extras, no pressure, and no obligation to book.
3
We load and sweep
Our team arrives on the agreed day, carries everything out, loads the van and sweeps up behind us.
4
Responsible disposal
Waste goes to licensed facilities to be sorted and recycled where possible. Businesses get a waste transfer note.
What affects the price of demolition & dismantling in Chichester
We quote every job individually from photos, so you know the cost before we arrive. The main factors are:
Size of the structure
A small shed versus a large summerhouse.
Materials
Timber, glass, brick and concrete have different disposal costs.
Bases and foundations
Breaking up concrete adds time and weight.
Access
Rear gardens with no side access take longer.
Contents
Clearing contents first adds volume.
How to prepare
Empty sheds and outbuildings, or ask us to clear the contents too.
Tell us about any cement roof sheets or materials you are unsure of.
Disconnect any electricity supply to outbuildings using a qualified electrician.
Check boundary features with your neighbour first.
Tell us if you want concrete bases removed as well.
Mark any plants or features that must be protected.
Responsible disposal
Where your Chichester waste goes
Timber is separated for recycling, metal frames are recycled, glass is handled safely, and rubble is taken for crushing into aggregate. Everything goes to licensed facilities.
Chichester District Council handles household bins, a chargeable bulky waste service and a garden waste subscription, and the county council runs the household waste recycling sites. For larger clearances, a single booked visit from us is often more practical than several trips.

Fantastic service I highly recommend them, took a shed down yesterday rang them last night they were here first thing this morning to take it away along with other garden waste. Highly competitive rates but they don't cut corners. They swept and tidied up after themselves as well, I'll definitely use A Star in all my future jobs. Thank you.

A Star Waste Management did a great job clearing a big pile of old decking from my garden. They were efficient, reasonably priced and the men were polite and respectful, and were mindful not to damage any of my plants. Would definitely use their service again.
TTerri WebbGoogle review
Quoted a good price for some hardcore removal after breaking up a pathway. A Star came and removed the waste the next day. The lads were polite and got the job done quickly. Highly recommend.
AA Star customerCustomer review
Jordan organized his crew to come and clear a mountain of rubbish from my back garden. A well overdue clearance all soggy and disintegrated and included a dead rat within..yuk. The lads did an amazing job. They were polite and courteous and worked flat out in the pouring rain. I can highly recommend them and will be using them again. I probably won't leave it so long next time though!

Yes. We dismantle and remove sheds, summerhouses and greenhouses across Chichester, along with their contents if needed.
Do you remove concrete shed bases in Chichester?
Yes. We break up and remove bases and patios and take the rubble for recycling.
Can you take down a wall in a Chichester conservation area?
Low garden walls can be removed, but in a conservation area, check with the local planning authority first, as some walls are protected.
Do you really cover Chichester from Worthing?
Yes. Chichester is about forty minutes from our base along the A27. We schedule Chichester work into planned days, so you get a booked slot.
Is there a travel charge for Chichester?
Our quotes are all-inclusive. Because Chichester is further from our base, very small single-item jobs may not be the most economical option compared with the council's bulky waste service, and we will be upfront about that.
Do you do structural demolition?
No. We focus on non-structural and garden structures. We will tell you if your job needs a specialist.
Can you remove a shed and its contents?
Yes, in one visit.
Can you remove the concrete base?
Yes. We can break up and remove shed and patio bases.
WhatsApp a few pictures of what needs to go and the route to the road. We reply with a clear, fixed quote, usually the same working day, and collections are often possible within a day or two.
