Your Choice for Demolition Contractors
At William Leiper & Son Ltd, we specialise in professional demolition services and scrap metal recycling, providing safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible structural engineering solutions for residential, industrial, and commercial clients alike. With decades of hands-on experience in the civil engineering and strip-out sector, our family-run business has earned a reputation for precision execution, absolute safety compliance, and robust asset recovery. No matter the scale or complexity of your project, we possess the specialist heavy machinery and technical expertise to complete the job on time and within budget.
As an established and fully insured demolition contractor, we handle every stage of the site lifecycle, from initial pre-demolition asbestos surveys and risk assessments to full structural demolitions and selective dismantling. We work closely with local authorities and developers, always prioritising strict safety protocols and structural precision to mitigate risk to adjacent buildings and the public. Following structural dismantling, our comprehensive scrap metal services allow us to responsibly process, segregate, and recycle a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials, helping our clients reduce their carbon footprint, minimise landfill waste, and support sustainable circular economy practices.
Our fleet of high-reach excavators and specialized processing equipment is fully mobile, enabling us to proudly serve a remarkably broad geographic area. Our core operational zones include:
- Scotland: East & West Lothian, the Scottish Borders, Dumfries & Galloway, East Ayrshire, North Lanarkshire, and South Lanarkshire.
- Northern England: Northumberland, Cumbria, Newcastle, Tyne and Wear, and all surrounding regions.
Whether you require a trusted, highly experienced team for controlled structural demolition, site clearance, or expert industrial scrap metal handling and aggregate recycling, we are here to help. We pride ourselves on transparent pricing, meticulous attention to detail, and maintaining clean, compliant jobsites from initial handover to final inspection.
