Concrete Breaking & Removal in Modesto
Cut, broken out, and hauled off — the concrete you don't want, gone, with the ground left ready for what comes next.
How removal works
Removal starts with the saws. Cutting the section free first means the concrete around it — the part that stays — is not cracked by the breaking. That one step is the difference between a clean edge and a bigger repair.
The freed sections are then broken out with breakers and loaded for disposal. Driveways, slabs, footings, and sections of floor and pavement are the usual work.
Tell us on the form whether you want haul-off included. Some jobs only need the concrete broken and stacked on site. Most want it gone on the same visit.

Questions
Do you haul the concrete away?
Yes, when haul-off is in the estimate. Say so on the quote form. Broken concrete is heavy, and the estimate will cover the loading and the disposal.
Can you remove just part of a slab?
Yes — that is the normal job. The part that goes is cut free first, so the edge left behind is a clean saw cut and the concrete that stays is not damaged.
What does removal cost?
Per job, in the written estimate: the size and thickness of the section, how it comes out, and whether it is hauled off. The cutting that frees it follows the flat sawing ranges, $4–$15 per linear foot.
