When to Remove or Demolish Concrete?
Concrete is a popular construction material because of its durability and long lifespan. But, at a certain point during its lifespan, you will need to get rid of it for various reasons. This includes:
Covered In Deep Cracks
Minor cracks are tolerable and easy to repair. But a concrete slab covered in deep cracks means you need to call an expert. A crack that is 1/8 inch or more should be worrisome. Once you see one, it is best to have a structural engineer review your building right away.
Signs of Settling or Flaking
Concrete usually flakes off with constant high traffic, freeze-thaw, and stress. Flaking concrete looks like round or oval depressions on concrete surfaces or joints. Meanwhile, concrete settlement happens when the soil below a concrete slab can no longer support its weight. Over time, the soil supporting the concrete surface changes. Thus, it causes your concrete driveway, concrete patio, floor, garage, and other concrete slab to either sink or crack.
Building a New Structure
Concrete removal and demolition also happen when you need to get rid of an existing structure to build a new one. It's very common, especially if the existing structure does not match your structural needs.
Surpasses Its Age Limit
Concrete is a very robust material. It can last for up to 100 years for large-scale projects if properly cared for. As for smaller concrete projects, their lifespan is up to 50 years. If your property surpasses its supposed lifespan, demolish it and build a new one. Otherwise, it will be too risky for those living or using it.

When it comes to removing a damaged or concrete slab, we got you covered. No matter what kind of project you have in mind, we can help make your vision a reality by removing any type of unwanted concrete from your property. We do it quickly and efficiently, damaging nothing else around it. Here's what to expect from our concrete removal and demolition services:
Concrete Demolition
Concrete demolition refers to the process of tearing down concrete structures like buildings, roads, and bridges. As concrete ages, it deteriorates and poses a danger to people who live or use the structure. Thus, the need to demolish it once you see serious signs of ageing or damages.
Depending on the concrete project, there are several ways to demolish concrete. At Port St Lucie Concrete Contractors, we offer the following demolition services:
Manual Concrete Demolition
One of the demolition services we offer is manual concrete demolition. We use tools that are operated to take down certain concrete structures. We do manual tearing down to ensure the safety of the structure. Also, we do it to preserve other parts that need not be demolished yet. The tool we use depends on the project. For instance, when demolishing an old concrete slab, we use a jackhammer to perform the job. Other examples of power tools we use for manual demolition include pry bar, bolt cutters and angle grinder.
Mechanical Concrete Demolition
Mechanical demolition is a technique we use for tearing down large buildings and other structures. We perform the job by using mechanical tools like cranes, excavators, bulldozers, and loaders. Demolishing concrete buildings is tricky. Thus, we ensure safety precautions are in place at all times. We make sure we are wearing safety goggles, construction boots, gloves, masks, and hard hats while performing the task.
Chemical Concrete Demolition
At Port St Lucie Concrete Contractors, we use chemical concrete demolition technique to remove portions of roadways, foundations, or walls. We use various types of explosives depending on the project. To shatter reinforced concrete, for example, we use nitroglycerin or dynamite. In other projects, we use sulfates, phosphoric acid, and trisodium phosphate. We have a team of concrete experts who decide on the perfect chemical to use to break up concrete.
Induced Collapse Demolition
For induced concrete removal, our company has a system in place. We follow a sequential removal of concrete resulting in a controlled collapse of the entire building or structure. To ensure success of the demolition job, we gather and plan ahead. Planning is crucial in any demolition job, especially in induced demolition.
Concrete Removal
While it's easy to do a DIY concrete removal if you have the knowledge and skills for it. To ensure quality concrete removal work, though, we recommend hiring an expert. We at Port St Lucie Concrete Contractors provide professional concrete removal services. We take care of everything from planning to actual execution up to disposal of concrete debris.
As a company we follow a strict concrete removal process. First, we assess the thickness of the concrete. We also consider if the concrete surface is reinforced by rebar or wire mesh. Knowing what we are expecting on the project allows us to plan the right approach and power tools to use. Second, we check with utility companies to ensure we do not hit any cable or gas line underneath the concrete slab. We also see to it if the concrete slab is connected to the foundation of the building. We only proceed with concrete removal once we settle all these considerations. Like the rest of our concrete services, our concrete removal prices are very reasonable.
Concrete Disposal
Upon completion of a concrete removal or demolition project, we do not leave the site with all the mess on it. As part of our concrete removal and demolition services, we dispose demolished concrete slabs as well. We remove concrete debris from the site and ensure proper disposal. We usually bring broken concrete slabs and concrete chunks to concrete recycling facilities. There are so many things you can do with concrete chunks. Some use it for DIY firepit while others use it as a stepping-stone path. As with price, our concrete disposal costs cheaper than with other companies'.
