Concrete DEmolition & Removal

Concrete Stair Removal

Cracked, shifting, or outdated concrete stairs can create safety concerns and make it difficult to update an entrance or exterior space. We remove concrete stairs from homes, apartment buildings, offices, storefronts, and other properties. Concrete stair removal may include:

  • Front porch steps
  • Side and rear entry steps
  • Basement entrance stairs
  • Commercial entryways
  • Attached or freestanding concrete stairways
  • Concrete landings and surrounding slabs

Our team carefully demolishes the stairs while considering nearby foundations, porches, railings, walkways, doors, and landscaping. Once the concrete has been broken apart, we remove the debris so the area can be prepared for replacement steps or a new design.

Concrete Driveway Removal

A deteriorating driveway can become cracked, uneven, sunken, or difficult to maintain. Complete removal may be necessary when resurfacing is no longer practical or when the property owner wants to install a new driveway, expand the existing layout, or replace the concrete with another material. St. Louis Demolition Company provides driveway demolition and removal for:

  • Single-car driveways
  • Multi-car driveways
  • Residential parking pads
  • Circular driveways
  • Commercial access drives
  • Concrete aprons and connected walkways

We break the driveway into manageable sections, remove the concrete, and clear away the demolition debris. Partial driveway removal is also available when only a specific section needs to be replaced or modified.

Concrete Patio Removal

An old concrete patio can limit plans for a new deck, outdoor living area, landscaping project, pool installation, or replacement patio. We remove concrete patios of various sizes from residential and commercial properties. Patio demolition and removal may be appropriate when the concrete is:

  • Severely cracked or deteriorated
  • Uneven or sinking
  • Poorly positioned for a new layout
  • Preventing drainage or landscaping improvements
  • Being replaced with pavers, decking, or new concrete
  • Connected to a larger outdoor renovation

We carefully demolish the patio and remove the broken material while working around the home, fencing, landscaping, utilities, and other nearby features.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Permit requirements depend on the location and scope of the project. In St. Louis City, St. Louis County, and individual County municipalities, permits may be required when removing structural concrete, disturbing a public sidewalk or right-of-way, altering a driveway approach, or performing significant excavation or land disturbance; requirements should be verified before work begins.

Concrete demolition and removal generally costs approximately $2 to $7 per square foot, although small projects may have minimum charges and reinforced or difficult-to-access concrete may cost more. St. Louis Demolition Company offers free quotes based on the size, thickness, location, accessibility, hauling, and disposal requirements of the project.

Many small to midsize concrete removal projects can be completed within one to three days, while large parking lots, reinforced slabs, or complex commercial projects may take several days or longer. The final timeline depends on the project’s size, accessibility, concrete thickness, and whether additional time is needed to obtain required permits.
