Tear Out & Replace

Cracked driveway or spalling slab? We diagnose the problem and fix it properly — not just patch over it.

Typical rate$20.90 – $29.50 / sq ft

Labor and materials together — the finished job, not a labor rate. It is a typical range, not a quote, and your job can fall outside it. The quote comes after we've seen the site, free and in writing.

What's included

Scope you can
hold us to

  • Diagnosis of why the original slab failed
  • Demolition, breakout and haul-off
  • Base repair, regrading and drainage correction
  • Full replacement pours
  • Repairs and resurfacing where replacement isn't warranted

How we quote it

We come out, look at the site, and leave you with a straight written quote — free, and with no obligation. Square footage sets the starting point; access, slope, drainage and how much base has to go in move it from there.

Once you're booked you get a confirmed start date and our own crew. We don't subcontract the work out, which is the main reason that date holds.

Straight answers

Common questions

01Can mine be repaired instead of replaced?

Depends why it failed. Surface spalling and isolated cracks can often be repaired or resurfaced. If the base underneath has washed out or moved, patching hides the problem for a season and then it comes back. We diagnose the cause first and tell you which one you're in.

02How much does tear out and replace cost?

$20.90–$29.50 a square foot all in. Breaking out the old slab and hauling it away is $15 a square foot of that, and the new pour is the rest. You're not getting a separate demolition invoice afterwards.

03Do you haul the old concrete away?

Yes — breakout, haul-off and disposal are in the number. We also regrade and repair the base before the new pour, which is the part that decides whether the replacement lasts.

04Why did it crack in the first place?

Usually one of four things: not enough base or base that washed out, water running the wrong way, too thin for what's driving on it, or control joints that were never cut deep enough. We'll tell you which, because if it isn't fixed the new slab goes the same way.
