Concrete Cutting questions, answered by experts

If you don't have access to commercial equipment, you can utilize a pickaxe or circular saw with a masonry blade to break up asphalt. However, this is generally only effective in small areas. A jackhammer is usually needed to break up slabs of asphalt into smaller pieces. The most effective method when removing an entire driveway is an excavator that breaks apart and pries away asphalt.

Large boulders may require professional assistance or heavy machinery to break them up safely and efficiently for removal. To do it yourself, use a masonry drill bit to drill holes into the boulder's surface at weak points or natural cracks. Once the holes are in place, insert metal wedges and shims. Then, strike the wedges with a sledgehammer to apply pressure and split the boulder along the drilled lines. It is vital to wear safety gear that protects your eyes, hands, feet, and body while performing this task.

Yes, removing a chimney is a major undertaking. If your chimney provides structural support to your home (which they often do), you’ll have to take extra precautions to remove it safely and not affect the structural integrity of your home. For a project like this, you’ll need to recruit a structural engineer, masonry contractor, and demotion crew. Between all of the labor and materials, you can expect to pay $2,000 to $10,000 in chimney removal costs.

First, most contractors will have a structural engineer create a report and plan for your project to ensure it’s safe to cut into the load-bearing wall. The contractor will then excavate around the wall, if necessary, measure the opening—allowing for additional space to fit and level the door, and then cut the doorway out. They will likely install a steel lintel as a header over the door for support. Once the doorway is cut out, they’ll demolish the concrete using sledge hammers and masonry chisels, clean up the surrounding concrete, and seal around the door with masonry mortar. 

Removal typically takes 30 minutes to 1 hour per item, depending on accessibility and size.
