"Working with DJ from Groundworks (Select Basement) has been an outstanding experience. After struggling with various contractors who either failed to resolve our water issues or were unprofessional, DJ and his team truly stood out. DJ was incredibly helpful, patient, and responsive throughout the entire process. Our home is a ranch with 225 linear feet around the perimeter, and while other contractors insisted on installing a French drain for the entire length, DJ recommended a more targeted approach. He proposed installing the French drain for just 80 linear feet, focusing only on the areas where water intrusion was likely. His thorough explanations and prompt responses to all our questions were greatly appreciated. The workers arrived on time, maintained a clean work environment, and completed the job as promised. If we could give 10 stars, we would! Groundworks is a highly professional and honest company that didn't try to inflate the scope of work to charge us more. We wholeheartedly recommend them."

"I highly recommend Pellicore Concrete! My wife and I hired Pellicore to remove our 10' wide asphalt driveway and replace it with a widened 18' concrete driveway. The project also entailed demolition of our existing concrete porch, replacing it, adding a new front patio, and tying the porch and patio work into the new driveway. Joe Pellicore met with us and gave us estimates for the entire project, along with breaking down the project into its component parts with estimates for each. We went with the entire project. Joe worked with us on dates for the project, which ended up taking 4 days. Joe and his staff arrived on time every day and kept us informed through each step, making sure we were involved in final decisions. Once the project was poured the crew did an amazing job cleaning up and backfilling gaps between the lawn and the new porch and driveway. They did fantastic work! We love our new porch, patio, and driveway!"

You’ll start by breaking the slab into manageable pieces and hauling the debris away with heavy machinery or sturdy hand tools. For concrete under three inches thick, a crowbar or sledgehammer often does the trick; thicker slabs call for a jackhammer and full protective gear.
Pros bring specialized tools, handle recycling when possible, and finish the job quickly and safely—another reason many homeowners call in a contractor instead of tackling it solo.
You’ll need a permit only if your local building department says so. Small, non-structural projects often slip under the radar and don’t require permits, but major demolition almost always triggers a permit and inspection. Check with your city or county before the first swing of the sledgehammer to avoid fines and delays.
With the right crew and equipment, most concrete demolition wraps up in a single day. Thickness, strength, and square footage are the biggest time factors, so larger or reinforced slabs can stretch the schedule. Pros use specialized tools to move fast without putting nearby structures at risk, keeping the job both safe and efficient.
Start by multiplying the slab’s length and width to get total square footage, then multiply that number by the going rate of $2 to $6 per square foot for slabs up to six inches thick. For thicker concrete, double the square-foot price. Don’t forget to ask whether disposal—costing $50 to $100 per ton—is already in the quote. Checking that line item keeps your estimate realistic.
Yes—think about reinforcement before you pour the replacement slab. Rebar or wire mesh boosts strength and durability on big projects like patios, decks, and driveways, helping the concrete stand up to heavy loads and changing weather. A local concrete pro can tell you exactly what gauge and pattern will give you the best long-term performance.
