Cuddy Group is the UK leading demolition contractor and one of the largest demolition and dismantling operators in the world.
Cuddy Group provides a comprehensive range of specialist operations to the public and private sectors. Our dedicated team of construction engineering professionals is committed to the delivery of projects safely, on time and within budget. The key to successfully achieving our aim is careful preconstruction and detailed planning, coupled with the constant monitoring and updating of our safety, environmental and quality plans, programmes and budgets during the construction phase.
We undertake some of the largest and most complex projects in the UK, managed by professionally qualified demolition engineers, and undertaken by experienced and certified supervisors and operatives.
Whenever possible, we seek to form partnerships, frameworks or alliances, with all parties. We believe this approach adds significant value to a project, assisting in our understanding of our client’s needs, whilst allowing proper evaluation in terms of health and safety design, buildability and value engineering.
We are renowned for completing jobs more quickly, cleanly and cost – efficiently than our competitors, whilst maintaining the most stringent health and safety standards. We undertake contracts in sensitive surroundings, be it government buildings of MOD Nuclear facilities. We have extensive experience in demolition all types of structure from multi storey flats in confined urban areas to large commercial properties, in urban or rural. Meaning that we are adept at developing solutions to meet difficult logistical and environmental problems.
We create open channels of communication and firmly believe in the principles of non-adversarial, collaborative working for the mutual benefit of all. Indeed, that’s why so many of our partnership are long-term. We are able to provide a seamless link for the redevelopment of brownfield sites. The vast majority of our projects are selfsufficient, as we rely on our own skilled operatives to undertake the operations, together with the resources and experience available to them via Cuddy Equipment, Plant and Transport Division.
We always create a bespoke demolition package which is designed specifically to suit the project needs; whether this is through controlled explosion or more traditional methods using high reach machinery.

how we do it
health, safety &training
For Cuddy Group, health and safety management is not simply a priority; it’s part our corporate philosophy. Technological advancements and external pressures mean Cuddy Group practices will evolve over time. However, our commitment to health and safety remains the consistent priority throughout the business and this is evidence by the numerous safety and training awards we have received.
Equipment, plant & transport
The company has therefore invested heavily in establishing its resources in these areas, combining the latest innovative products with industry recognised classics. As a consequence, Cuddy Group now boasts one of the most extensive and specialised plant and equipment banks in the UK.
We have the prestigious national quality assurance accreditation for health and safety management. This allows Cuddy Group to have control over our occupational health and safety risks and improve our performance even more in Health and Safety
In addition, and uniquely for our industry, Cuddy Group is in the luxurious position of owning all of its plant and equipment. This means that we are in full control of the condition of each and every item, not at the mercy of a third party hiring firm. For our clients this means that, in the unlikely event of a breakdown, our own mechanics or engineers are available, at short-notice, to attend the site and carry out repairs, or a replacement can be supplied quickly.
Our integral part of our drive to excellence within the group is our commitment to training. A company is only ever as good as the people they employ. The Cuddy Group has one of the best reputations in the industry for employee retention through training and growth in all aspects and disciplines
However, we’re not about to rest on our laurels. Cuddy Group remains committed to the ongoing expansion and enhancement of our plant and equipment resource as this will help us in continuing to deliver a superior quality of service to our clients.
Cuddy Group recognises that people buy people and we are extremely proud of all of ours

how we do it
Environmental As well as a dangerous business, our industry can also be a dirty one, quite literally. The mismanagement of a project could have a devastating effect on the environment, the impact of which could potentially be felt for many years.
Environmental & Quality policy
Cuddy Group is wholly committed to the protection and enhancement of the environment. Consequently, we are continually striving to minimise the environmental impact of all our core activities and closely monitor the impact our work has in this area, particularly in reference to air emissions, reduction of water use and effluent-to-water, by utilising state-of-the-art technology and applying the principles of pollution prevention.
awards
& Accreditations
Winning an award is never one of our objectives when we start a project; adhering to best-practice standards and delivering a quality service to our client are. Having said that, if in meeting these objectives we achieve a level of excellence which earns us recognition from a third party within our industry then that is an extremely rewarding bonus to add to a job well done and makes us feel justifiably proud and very happy for the individuals who have worked so hard. We are delighted to say that Cuddy Group’s achievements have been recognised in this way many times.
We conduct regular reviews of our environmental management system (in accordance with the ISO 14001 standard for environmental operation) to ensure compliance with industry guidelines. Finally, we ensure that all Cuddy Group employees are aware of environmental issues at all operational sites and that they recognise their individual responsibilities in ensuring best-practice behaviours are meticulously followed in order to avoid inflicting even a minimum level of damage to the environment.
Quality Cuddy Group strives to offer a high standard of service to all clients in their chosen field of operations. The company has developed a Quality Management System based on the requirements of ISO 9001: 2000 and has established standards that are annually reviewed to ensure we continually improve our performance.
