Montgomery County Concrete Removal & Demolition | Tear-Outs, Haul-Off and Repours From Porter to Montgomery, TX

Concrete Removal and Demolition in Montgomery County, TX, Done Cleanly

Our crews cut the failed slab into manageable sections with a wet saw, which leaves clean edges against the concrete you're keeping and keeps the dust down. A skid steer breaks the sections out and loads them. We haul the debris to a local crushing facility, where it's recycled into aggregate base material instead of going to a landfill.

Before a skid steer touches the yard, we mark irrigation lines and cleanouts, protect the edges of the lawn, and call 811 so buried utilities are located. We protect the concrete that stays, such as a garage slab or a sound section of walk, by saw-cutting a clean line rather than breaking toward it.

Cracked and Separating Driveways in Montgomery County, TX

We remove driveways that have split into plates, opened wide cracks or pulled away from the garage slab, which almost always means the base failed or the drive never had steel. Our crew finds the cause, then pours back with a rebar grid and dowels into the garage apron so the new drive and the house slab move together. Most driveway tear-outs and repours take us two to three days.

Settled or Heaved Slabs and Sidewalks

For settled or heaved slabs, we cut out the moved sections and deal with the cause, whether that's a downspout, a tree or poor grading. Then we pour new reinforced panels tied to the sound concrete around them. We don't sell lift-and-fill repairs on these soils, because lifting one panel and filling under it rarely lasts here.

Spalling and Flaking Surfaces

We assess flaking and spalling surfaces before recommending anything. When the slab under the flaking is sound, we resurface or overlay it. When the damage runs deeper, or the slab is also cracked and sinking, we recommend a tear-out and a new pour, and our owner shows you why on site.

Full Tear-Out and Repour of Failed Concrete

Most of our removal jobs end with a new pour, and we price both on one estimate so the cost and the schedule stay simple. After breakout we dig out soft soil, rebuild and compact the base, and pour 3,000-plus PSI concrete with a rebar grid on chairs. The replacement we pour most often is a driveway that had no rebar and cracked within a couple of seasons.

Patio, Pool Deck and Slab Demolition

We also demolish old patios before a new outdoor room, failed pool decks, sheds and their pads, and slabs in the way of additions. On pool decks, our crew protects the coping and the pool during breakout and plans the replacement so the drains and joints work better than the old ones did.

Protecting Trees and Landscaping During Removal

Our crews plan the skid steer's route across your yard to stay off root zones, and we cut roots only when they caused the failure and losing them won't harm the tree. In The Woodlands, where tree removal is regulated and replanting is required, we treat mature trees as fixed and design the new slab around them.

We protect everything next to the work: mulch beds, irrigation heads, fences and the edge of the lawn. When a trailer has to cross grass, we take the shortest path and repair any ruts before we leave.

Repair or Replace? How We Decide

At the site visit, our owner shows you what we see, whether it's a slab that rocks underfoot, a void under the edge or a drive with no steel at the crack. You understand the recommendation before you see a price.

Before-and-After Photos of Every Tear-Out

We photograph every removal job before we start and after the new concrete is in. Those photos show the condition of the old slab, the base we found under it and the steel that went into the replacement. They're useful for your records, your HOA or a future buyer.

Concrete We Remove

What a Tear-Out Day Looks Like

Our crew arrives early with a wet saw, a skid steer and a dump truck, and we walk the cut lines with you before anything starts. We saw-cut along the agreed lines, break the concrete into manageable pieces, and load and haul it to a local crushing facility. On a typical driveway, the old concrete is out and the base is exposed by the end of the first day. We photograph the base so you can see what was under your old slab.

Before we leave each evening, we sweep the street, cover open trenches, and leave the site safe for your family and your neighbors. Sometimes we find something unexpected under the old slab, such as a buried layer of old concrete, a void or a large root. Our owner shows you and writes up any change for your approval before we continue.

• Day one: saw-cutting, breakout and haul-off
• Day two: base repair, compaction, forms and steel
• Day two or three: the pour, finishing and control joints
• About a week later: you can drive on the new slab

Preparing Your Property for Removal

We ask you to move vehicles off the drive and out of the street in front, and to mark sprinkler heads and any lighting wires near the work area. It also helps to let neighbors know a dump truck will be in and out for a day. Our crew protects lawn edges, beds and fences, and we repair any ruts our equipment leaves before we go. We also remove old edging, fence post footings and buried debris along the work area when they're in the way of the new pour. Every replacement we pour after removal carries our one-year workmanship warranty and our 100% satisfaction guarantee.

What Removal Costs Depend On

Our removal pricing depends on how much concrete comes out, how thick it is and whether there's steel in it. Equipment access and the number of loads that go to the crusher also affect the price. We quote removal and the new pour together on one written estimate with no hidden fees, honored for three months, and nothing is added later without your written approval.

An old slab can hide a surprise, such as a second layer of concrete underneath, a buried root ball or a void where the base washed out. When that happens, we stop, show you, and write up the change for your approval before we continue.

• Square footage and thickness of the old slab
• Rebar or mesh inside it, which slows breakout
• Access for the skid steer and trailer
• Haul distance and number of loads
• Base repair and the new pour
