Driveways, patios, sidewalks, old slabs, and footings broken out and hauled off so you can repour or rebuild, with clean saw-cut edges where you are keeping part of the slab.
Cracked, heaved, or failing concrete has to come out before you can repour or build. We break out driveways, patios, sidewalks, old slabs, and footings, saw-cut clean edges where you are keeping part of the pour, and haul the broken concrete off, recycling it where we can to keep your disposal cost down. The result is a clean, graded base ready for your new pour or your next phase.
Concrete weight and rebar are what drive the price, so a thin patio slab costs far less per square foot than a thick rebar-reinforced driveway or a foundation footing. We give you a per-square-foot range after we see the thickness and check for reinforcement, and we handle the dump runs so you never deal with a pile of rubble.

Frequently asked questions.
How much does concrete removal cost in Bellingham?
Concrete removal runs $4 to $12 per square foot in Whatcom County, depending mostly on thickness and whether the slab has rebar or wire reinforcement. A thin patio is at the low end, a thick reinforced driveway or a footing is at the high end. We quote after we check the thickness.
Do you saw-cut where I am keeping part of the driveway?
Yes. When you are only removing part of a slab, we saw-cut a clean, straight edge so your new pour ties in neatly and the slab you keep is not cracked or undercut.
What happens to the old concrete?
We haul it off and recycle it where we can. Clean concrete is often crushed and reused, which keeps disposal cost and dump fees down compared with sending it all to the landfill.
