The tower block demolition contract is part of Phase 6.2 of the £600m Acton Gardens scheme, transforming a 52-acre site into a new urban quarter.

Mick George has already completed asbestos management and demolition works on former stages of the Acton Gardens development. The latest contract brings the total value of works undertaken by Mick George to £2.1m.

Contracts director Michael George said: ‘’Having worked in partnership with Countryside Properties on a number of developments in the past, we’re pleased that they have recognised our credentials in providing multiple services on a project of this magnitude. Our contracting services are becoming increasingly sought after up and down the country, which is a testament to the quality of service that the business is providing.’’
