What we do

Four disciplines, one accountable contractor

Survey to sign-off, we self-deliver the hazardous work rather than subcontract it. That keeps method, supervision and records under one roof.

Experience

Over 100 years of combined experience

LAR was built by people who came up through licensed asbestos work, demolition and groundworks. That experience shows in the detail: realistic programmes, method statements that survive contact with the site, and supervisors who know when to stop and reassess.

We work for local authorities, housing providers, main contractors, developers and industrial clients across the UK — from single-dwelling removals to multi-phase remediation and demolition packages.
