Concrete Breaking & Removal — Phoenix, AZ
Concrete Breaking & Removal in Phoenix, AZ
Driveways, patios, slabs — broken up and hauled away.
Licensed & Bonded · 10+ Years Licensed · Owner-Operated · Top Pro on Thumbtack
Old concrete doesn't go away on its own. Cracked driveways, heaved patios, broken slabs, and old walkways all have to be broken up and hauled off before anything new can go in. It's loud, heavy, dusty work — and it's exactly what we do. Molina Demolition breaks and removes concrete across Phoenix with the right equipment for the job, from a skid steer with a breaker for big slabs to smaller tools for tight spots.
When You Need Concrete Breaking & Removal
The most common calls are driveways and patios that have cracked, settled, or heaved past the point of repair — especially with Arizona's soil movement. Homeowners also call when they're replacing a slab with pavers or turf, removing an old shed foundation, cutting out a section for new plumbing or landscaping, or clearing concrete footings and block walls from an older property. If it's concrete and it needs to go, we break it and haul it.
Our Concrete Removal Process
Jorge starts by looking at the slab — thickness, reinforcement, and what's around it. That decides the equipment and the approach. The concrete gets broken into manageable pieces with a hydraulic breaker, loaded out, and hauled away. Wire mesh and rebar get cut and removed with it. Once the slab is gone, the area is left clean and level, ready for your new pour, pavers, or landscaping. You get one person to deal with from the first call to the last load.
Concrete Removal Cost in Phoenix
Pricing depends on the square footage, how thick the slab is, whether it's reinforced with rebar or mesh, and how easy it is to get equipment to it. A thin patio slab in an open backyard is a simpler job than a thick driveway with tight side access. Jorge looks at the actual slab and gives you an upfront quote — no hidden fees, no surprises after the breaking starts.

Concrete Removal Questions We Hear
Can you break concrete with rebar in it?
Yes. Reinforced slabs get broken the same way, and the rebar or mesh gets cut and hauled out with the concrete. It changes the work involved, which is why Jorge looks at the slab before quoting it.
What if the slab is hard to reach?
Tight side yards and narrow gates are normal in Phoenix-area homes. Part of the estimate is figuring out access — what equipment fits, and how the broken concrete gets carried out without tearing up what you want to keep.
Do you haul the broken concrete away?
Always. Breaking it is only half the job — every load gets hauled off and the area gets left clean and level, ready for whatever's going in next.
