I was referred by a friend and I'm really glad I listened. The team handled a full basement cleanout; decades of old stuff, heavy appliances, you name it. They worked for hours without complaint. One of the guys found an old metal shelving unit I wanted to keep and set it aside without being asked. Small thing but showed they were paying attention. Five stars no hesitation. Empire Demolition and Hauling is the only call I'm making for this kind of work going forward.

We run a property management company so we use hauling services a lot. Empire is now our go-to. They're reliable, fast, and actually answer their phone which is rare these days. Bonus: they never leave a mess behind.

Excellent customer service! Had a double driveway, came out on time and ready to work. Demoed, hauled away, graded it off to be poured again. Highly recommended.

Okay so I don't usually write reviews but seriously, this service was a lifesaver. My husband and I were overwhelmed with clearing out his dad's old house, full of junk, old furniture, the works. Empire came in and made it disappear. Thank you thank you thank you.

Empire Demolition and Hauling was available to pickup and remove a bunch of junk from our garage. They arrived on-time; worked quickly; loaded the junk into a truck and even helped clean up afterwards. Plus, the price quoted was quite reasonable too. They definitely will be recommended to my family and friends. Thanks for your hardwork guys!

We hired Empire to tear down an old garage that had been falling apart for years. From the first call, they were super helpful and gave us a fair quote. Showed up on time, worked fast, and left the site spotless. Honestly didn't expect it to be that easy. Highly recommend!

These guys are the real deal. We needed some concrete busted up and removed from our backyard, and they handled it no problem. The crew was friendly, professional, and honestly? Way cheaper than the other companies we called. Win win.

Professional Concrete Removal in Sacramento, CA

Cracked driveways heaved up by tree roots. Pool decks sitting where a new patio should go. Slabs left behind from a structure that came down months ago. Concrete doesn’t move itself, and breaking it out without a real plan tends to make the mess worse, not better. For homeowners, general contractors, and developers across Sacramento who need it done clean the first time, that’s exactly what we do.

Empire Demolition and Hauling keeps every phase in house. Breaking, loading, hauling, clearing. All of it stays with our own crew and equipment from the day we mobilize to the final pass across the site. Thirty years running demolition jobs across Northern California means we’ve seen what Sacramento sites throw at a crew, and we show up ready. Call for a free estimate and we’ll walk the site with you.

Concrete We Remove in Sacramento

From a single walkway section to full foundation clearance on a development parcel, our crew handles the full range of concrete demolition in Sacramento. Selective removal and complete teardowns are both in scope, so the job size doesn’t dictate whether we can help.

  • Driveways and aprons
  • Slabs and flatwork
  • Full foundations and foundation sections
  • Retaining walls
  • Pool decks and surrounds
  • Walkways and sidewalks
  • Curbs and concrete borders
  • Parking pads and commercial lots

Commercial and Site Prep Concrete Removal

Developers and GCs clearing pads, parking lots, and old foundations in growth areas like Elk Grove, Natomas, and Roseville count on us to keep site prep moving on schedule. Check out our concrete contractor services for a full picture of what we cover on the commercial breaking and removal side, so the next phase doesn’t sit waiting on leftover material.

Residential Concrete Removal

Homeowners in Land Park, East Sacramento, Folsom, and Citrus Heights call us when a driveway replacement or backyard remodel can’t move forward until the old slab is gone. Interior slab work comes up a lot too, especially in older Sacramento County neighborhoods where remodel prep and room additions require breaking through what’s already down.

How the Concrete Removal Process Works

Every slab removal job in Sacramento starts with a site walk. The crew looks at thickness, reinforcement, access points, and anything sitting adjacent to the concrete that needs to stay protected. After that, the process is controlled and straightforward.

  1. 1

    Assess the scope

    Walk the site, confirm what’s coming out, and flag any reinforcement or utilities that factor into the approach.

  2. 2

    Mobilize equipment

    Machines arrive from our own yard. No waiting on rental availability or coordinating outside operators.

  3. 3

    Break and segment

    Concrete gets broken into manageable sections using equipment matched to the thickness and site conditions.

  4. 4

    Load and haul

    All broken material goes onto our trucks and off the property. Nothing gets left sitting.

  5. 5

    Clean the site

    A final pass clears debris and leaves the area ready for whatever phase comes next.

Dust control isn’t something we tack on at the end. Sacramento summers push hard on air quality compliance, and controlled concrete breaking is built into how we run every job, keeping the site safe and within regional regulations.

Ready to get that old concrete out of the way? Call Empire Demolition and Hauling at (916) 579-2533 for a free concrete removal estimate in Sacramento.

Why Sacramento Property Owners Keep Calling Empire

Three decades in demolition means the crew has worked through nearly every condition the Sacramento region produces. No work gets handed off to subcontractors. One accountable team runs the job start to finish, which keeps timelines tight and quality consistent from the first mobilization to the last truck off site.

Owning the heavy equipment matters more than people realize. There’s no waiting on a rental yard. No coordinating a third party operator who shows up on his own schedule. When the job needs a machine, it’s already ours to deploy.

And because the full scope of services sits under one roof, from demolition through hauling, grading, and site prep, property owners hand us a problem and get back a clean, ready parcel. No managing multiple vendors. No gaps in who’s responsible for what.

Common Questions About Concrete Removal in Sacramento

How long does a typical concrete removal job take?
Most residential driveway or slab removals wrap in a single day. Larger commercial pads or full foundation clearance may run two to three days depending on what's involved. You'll get a realistic timeline during the free estimate so there's nothing surprising once the crew shows up.
Do I need a permit for concrete removal in Sacramento?
It depends on the size of the removal and what's adjacent to it. Foundation work and larger site prep jobs often need a permit through Sacramento County or the City of Sacramento. Before anything starts, we'll walk you through what applies to your specific project.
Can the crew handle concrete that has rebar in it?
Yes. Reinforced concrete is standard scope for us. Rebar comes out with the broken concrete so the material clears cleanly and the site is left ready.
Where does the concrete debris go after removal?
Everything gets loaded onto our trucks and hauled off site. Concrete is frequently recycled at regional facilities, which lines up with responsible debris disposal. The full haul off is on us, nothing stays on the property.
Do you take on small residential jobs, or is it mostly large commercial work?
Both. A single driveway removal gets the same attention as a large development pad clearance. Equipment scales to fit the job, not the other way around, and that goes for residential, commercial, and industrial scopes.
How do I get a concrete removal estimate in Sacramento?
Call (916) 579-2533 or reach out through the website. Estimates are free, and we can schedule a site visit to look at the scope before putting a quote together.
