What Is Driveway & Sidewalk Tear-Out?

Driveway and sidewalk tear-out is the process of removing existing concrete flatwork that's damaged, deteriorated, or no longer serving its purpose. The work involves saw-cutting edges for clean separation, breaking up the concrete, removing debris, and hauling the material to a disposal site.

Tear-out is typically performed before installing new concrete, but it's also done to clear space for landscaping, utility work, or property improvements. The goal is complete removal with minimal impact to surrounding areas.

At Next Level Concrete, we handle the entire tear-out process from start to finish. We don't leave you with a pile of broken concrete in your yard. When we're done, your site is cleared and ready for whatever comes next.
