Concrete & Hardscape
Patio & walkway removal in the Jersey Shore
Tier B · 23 towns covered
Removing concrete, paver, or flagstone patios and walkways and grading the ground back out.
If this is the job you've got, you're not the first homeowner on the Jersey Shore to need it gone.
How this normally shows up
- A cracked concrete patio or walkway you want replaced
- Old pavers or flagstone you want cleared back to dirt
- A settled walkway that has become uneven and unsafe
- Hardscape you want gone before a new patio, pool, or garden
The usual approach
Patios and walkways come out much like a driveway — broken up, sorted, and hauled off, with pavers or flagstone stacked for reuse if you want them. The exposed ground is raked and graded so the space is ready for whatever comes next.
Pavers and flags usually come up by hand or with a small machine, and the base course underneath is the part that decides the volume. Access is rarely the problem on this one; what to do with the ground afterwards usually is.
$400 – $3,000 — typical range, not a quote. What your job actually costs can only be settled by a registered crew that walks the site and looks at it.

Towns we cover for this
Only the areas where this work actually applies.
Barrier island & shore boroughs
Tight lots, small setbacks, and flood-zone rules. Pools, decks, and hot tubs on narrow properties where equipment and dumpsters usually stage from the street.
Bayshore & river towns
Mixed mainland and waterfront lots along the bay, rivers, and lagoons. The full range of residential demolition, with lagoon and flood-zone jobs needing extra care.
Inland & western Ocean County
Larger inland lots with room to work. Detached garages, sheds, above-ground pools, and the occasional mobile home, with space to stage machines and roll-off dumpsters on site.
