Controlled Concrete Removal & Selective Demolition

REDCORE provides small demolition and controlled concrete removal services across Massachusetts for projects that require targeted removal of concrete structures without affecting surrounding elements. Unlike large-scale demolition involving wrecking balls and heavy excavators, our small demolition work focuses on surgical precision: removing a specific section of concrete slab, taking out a concrete wall to open up a floor plan, demolishing a concrete patio or stoop, breaking out trench concrete between saw cuts, or removing concrete around utilities that must remain intact. We combine diamond cutting with controlled demolition techniques to define clean break lines first, then remove only the material that needs to go.

Our approach to small demolition begins with diamond sawing to define the perimeter of the area to be removed. These clean saw cuts create a boundary that prevents fractures from propagating into the concrete that must remain. With the perimeter cut, we use electric breakers, pneumatic hammers, and manual tools to break out the concrete in manageable pieces. This cut-then-remove method produces far cleaner results than uncontrolled jackhammering and dramatically reduces the risk of damage to surrounding concrete, adjacent walls, plumbing, electrical, and other utilities.

REDCORE performs small demolition throughout Springfield, Worcester, Pittsfield, and all of Western and Central Massachusetts. Our typical projects include basement slab removal for waterproofing and drainage systems, partial slab removal for plumbing access, concrete stoop and step demolition, patio removal, interior wall demolition in commercial renovations, and removal of equipment pads and foundations. We handle debris removal and can coordinate with disposal facilities for responsible concrete recycling. Every project is planned and executed with attention to protecting the structure, the remaining concrete, and the client's property.
