Safety

Safety is a major concern at any demolition site, but at Silverado it is the foremost concern. We recognize that demolition sites can be dangerous places, but with pre-task planning, teamwork, training, communication and a safety attitude, Silverado job sites are safe. We continually train our employees with project specific safety classes including classes in asbestos, lead, hazardous materials, and fall protection.
