Depending on the thickness of the concrete I would use a breaker to beark it up. We have the screwfix special Titan 25kg one for those sort of jobs or you can hire a beaver breaker to do it too. Then I would suggest either a 6/8 yard skip or a grab to remove from site.
Thanks Kieran, that's helpful. Just need to see how thick it is.....
Agreed with Kieran - I have an Aldi "special" breaker that comes out for such things.... a lot of hard work there - good luck
Thanks! Will need it!
Another fan of the titan breaker, we broke up loads of concrete with it last year, old bunkers full of real coal, pathways as well as post mix when fencing, all waste into skips for us.
No Screwfix Special Titan here, but the Toolstation special Bauker demolition hammer. Smashed up fence post concrete, bashed up rubble and knocked down walls - best £125 ood quid I spent in a while, ours runs off a Honda generator some of the time too - not recommended but needs must when working remotely.
Another option is to get a GOOD mini digger operator to either pull up the concrete if not too thick or if too thick for that find a digger operator which has a breaker for their digger.
Be a noisy day or two whichever option you end up with!
Thanks Adam, appreciate your advice.
Depends on how thick and strong the concrete is.
you might want a concrete cutting saw as well if the step and raised beds are built on top of it
Good point, thanks David.
