Demolition News

National Demolition Association’s Mike Taylor and Ray Passeno discuss the bidding war that is taking place in the US demolition business.

In the past few weeks, we have covered a number of stories relating to a largely unreported bidding war that is taking place in the US demolition community. Contracts like the Texas Stadium have shown a huge variation in price, reports suggest that traditionally local demolition companies are venturing cross country to find elusive recessionary work and, most worrying of all, there are suggestions that non-demolition companies are being considered for potentially hazardous works.

So when we bumped into NDA chief executive Mike Taylor and president Ray Passeno at the 2009 Convention of the National Federation of Demolition Contractors (which took place this past weekend in Killarney, Ireland) we took the opportunity to record this exclusive audio podcast interview with them.
