Tottenham Hotspurs FC – Keltbray

CA Drillers played a pivotal role in the first phase of the demolition package, working in collaboration with Keltbray as part of the enabling works for the construction of a prestigious new hotel at the Tottenham Hotspur football ground.

Our scope of work involved precision saw cutting of approximately 700 linear meters of reinforced concrete, spanning slabs at ground level, lower ground, and basement. These slabs ranged in depth from 600 mm to 1 meter, with substantial supporting beams extending up to 2.5 meters thick.

This project posed unique challenges, as it had to be meticulously coordinated around the busy schedule of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, which regularly hosted Premier League and European football fixtures, along with a diverse range of high-profile events. Maintaining progress while ensuring minimal disruption required careful planning and adaptability.

Labour fluctuated between 2 to 10 operatives, depending on the release of works, but our highly skilled team remained agile and efficient throughout. We employed precision cutting techniques, including track sawing, stitch drilling at corners to prevent overcuts, wire sawing, and plunge wire sawing. With up to eight operatives on-site daily over a 12-week period, we successfully completed the works on time and within the programme, demonstrating our expertise in complex demolition projects.
