Frequently Asked Questions — Concrete Breaking & Removal

How much does concrete breaking & removal cost in Southern California?+

Cost for concrete breaking & removal depends on the size of the job, wall or structure height, site access, whether the work is done by hand or by machine, whether slabs and footings come out, and how many tons of debris go to disposal. Because those factors vary so much from one property to the next, C&S Demolition does not publish a price list. We give a written lump-sum bid after seeing your plans or photos — no hourly billing.

Do I need a permit for concrete breaking & removal in California?+

In most Southern California cities, concrete breaking & removal requires a demolition permit from the city building department. Permit requirements vary by city and project type. Your written bid states which permits the job needs and who pulls them; permit fees are the owner's unless the bid says otherwise.

How long does concrete breaking & removal take?+

Is asbestos a concern with concrete breaking & removal?+
