East Coast Demo removes concrete across St Leonards for homeowners, builders and site managers. Saw cutting, breaking, loading and documented disposal, all from one crew. It helps that we know the area: the North Shore trades on established streets, big trees and rock under the topsoil.

Concrete Work We Remove in St Leonards
Most removal jobs fall into four buckets, and we run all of them with our own machines and operators.
- Residential homes and driveways
- Commercial and industrial buildings
- Factories and warehouse floors
- Retaining walls and footings
- Car parks and access ramps
- Structural slabs and reinforced concrete
Every project is carried out with full compliance under SafeWork NSW and EPA regulations
Slab and Foundation Removal
House slabs, shed bases, old footings and foundations. Reinforced slabs need cutting and sequenced breaking rather than blunt force, especially close to structures that are staying. We check for services under the slab before the first cut, every time.
- House and garage slabs
- Patio and shed bases
- Industrial floor slabs
- Concrete retaining walls
- Structural footings and foundations
Once complete, all materials are sorted and taken to certified recycling plants, leaving your site ready for rebuilding or redevelopment.
Driveway Demolition and Removal
Driveway removal timing usually matters, because the new pour is booked behind it. We coordinate dates with your concreter so the site sits bare for days, not weeks.
Commercial and Industrial Concrete
Warehouse floors, factory hardstand, loading docks and machine bases. Commercial removal runs on volume and cycle times: bigger breakers, steady truck rotation and a site that keeps operating around the work where it has to.
Our Concrete Removal Process
01
Site Assessment and Planning
We inspect the site to identify the structure type, reinforcement level, and any surrounding hazards.
02
Method Selection
The appropriate equipment and demolition technique are chosen for maximum safety and efficiency.
03
Demolition and Removal
Concrete is systematically broken down, cut, and removed from the site.
04
Sorting and Recycling
Recyclable materials are separated to minimise waste sent to landfill.
05
Final Clean-Up
The area is left clean, safe, and ready for new construction or landscaping.
Neighbours and tenants get considered in the plan: notice where it helps, quiet-hours scheduling where it is needed, and dust managed rather than apologised for.
Where the Concrete Goes: Recycling
Dust suppression, exclusion zones and vibration awareness are part of the method on every job. The site gets left graded, raked and genuinely finished, because the last hour of a removal job is what people remember.
Why St Leonards Jobs Need the Right Gear
Local conditions set the plan in St Leonards. In short, older slabs and paths often sit over sandstone shelf, which changes breaking technique, and leafy streets mean tree protection and careful truck movements. Established leafy streets mean tree preservation rules and tighter truck staging than the suburbs further out. Knowing this before pricing is the difference between an estimate and a commitment.
Before You Book: St Leonards Concrete FAQs
Do I need council approval to remove a driveway or slab?
Usually not for like-for-like residential work, but crossovers touch council assets and bigger jobs tied to development can be conditioned. We will flag it if your job is one of the exceptions.
Will breaking concrete damage my house or pipes?
Not when it is done in sequence. We locate services before cutting, manage vibration near structures and saw-cut clean edges where the removal meets concrete that stays.
How much does concrete removal cost in St Leonards?
Thickness, reinforcement, access and volume set the price. A plain 100mm path is quick work; a reinforced driveway on a tight block is not. Photos and rough measurements get you a realistic number fast.
