If your warehouse or industrial lease requires a tenant-installed mezzanine taken out at lease end, we dismantle the steel framework, decking, staircases and edge protection safely, make good the slab and clear the site – fixed price after a single site visit.

What's included in mezzanine removal?

Mezzanine floor removal involves the careful deconstruction of the structural steel framework, decking, staircases and edge protection that make up a commercial mezzanine floor.

Typical scope includes:

  • Structural steel mezzanine dismantling
  • Floor decking removal
  • Staircase removal
  • Guard rail and safety barrier removal
  • Making good to slab
  • Steelwork disposal or sale
  • Partition removal in mezzanine areas

How much does mezzanine removal cost?

Mezzanine floor removal typically costs between £2 and £6 per sq ft of the mezzanine area, and the cost is often offset by the scrap or resale value of the steel. Many clients bundle this with wider site clearance and instruct us for the full end of lease dilapidations works, from structural dismantling through to final redecoration. Our pricing page explains how the steel value affects the net figure.

How long does it take to dismantle a mezzanine?

A standard 2,000 sq ft mezzanine usually takes 3 to 5 working days to dismantle safely. We clear the structure as part of our wider office strip-out and warehouse services, and we plan it around your hand-back date – you can read how we sequence the works here.

What happens to the steelwork?

Depending on its condition and specification, the steel is either salvaged for resale or sent to commercial scrap metal recycling facilities as part of our complete soft strip demolition process. If you are weighing up whether removal is really required, our schedule of dilapidations guide is worth reading first.

Who is this for?

Industrial and warehouse tenants use us to remove a mezzanine they installed and reinstate the clear floor height at lease end. Landlords use us to strip out a departing tenant's mezzanine so the unit returns to its original open specification and re-lets more easily.

Where do we carry out mezzanine removal?

We dismantle mezzanines across the region's logistics and industrial stock, including the estates of Basildon, the distribution units around Milton Keynes, the warehouse parks of Luton, and industrial sites in Ipswich.
