CONCRETE DEMOLITION & REMOVAL: EVERYTHING HOMEOWNERS NEED TO KNOW:

​

The concrete demo process is a simple, straightforward process if you know how to do it right.  Plus, if you’re hiring a contractor to pour new concrete, handling the demolition yourself might actually wind up costing you more in disposal fees.

​

Should I repair or remove the concrete?

​

Concrete removal is the best options if any of these issues are occurring:

​

• Multiple cracks - wide and deep cracks that are uneven/settled on one side

• Frost heave - part of the concrete is pushed up due to the frost that occurs in colder climates

• Settled concrete - caused by the soil erosion, changes in soil moisture or washout.

 

It may be more cost effective to repair concrete in these situations:

​

• Thin cracks - small, hairline cracks with no evidence of settling

• Sunken concrete - caused by heavy equipment or load (e.g., a heavy dumpster) that was placed on the concrete

​

How much does it cost to repair or remove the concrete?

​

The cost to remove concrete varies by:

• amount of concrete that needs to be removed

• disposal fees

• your location

​

Can concrete be recycled?

​

Yes!

​

What tools are used during demolition?

​

The two most commonly used tools are:

​

• The bobcat

• A jackhammer
