  • I've found breakers to be less use on concrete bases that a sledge hammer and a lump hammer / cold chisel. Also a SDS for stitch drilling really awkward bits.

    That being said, in the future I'd always get someone in. It's not so much the breaking, it's the moving stuff, and then finding there's 10 tonnes of even worse crap hidden underneath.

    Mybuilder.com is my goto for finding people for that sort of thing.

  • This. I posted on here earlier in the year about breaking up a concrete patio. Turned out to be not too tricky with a lump hammer and chisel. It was just the patio below that (and the patio below that) that were particularly draining.

  • Hmm. Isn’t the risk that a builder just says their quote is dependent on there not being any other stuff underneath that complicates things?

    Mybuilder.com at the moment has given me quotes from £250 to £1.5k….
