Road, Driveway & Parking Lot Removal Services in Alabama

Our crew specializes in breaking down and hauling away old asphalt and concrete surfaces, leaving behind a clean, stable site that’s ready for new construction or paving.

Why Professional surface Removal Matters

Partial Removal, Repairs & Selective Demolition

asphalt/concrete Removal for New Construction

Removing old asphalt and concrete isn’t just about breaking it apart — it’s about preparing the ground for whatever comes next. A poorly removed surface can lead to drainage issues, unstable foundations, uneven paving, and costly delays for property owners and contractors. Our crew follows industry-leading practices to ensure every tear-out creates a smooth, compacted, construction-ready base, helping prevent problems long after the paving crew leaves.


We handle everything from the first cut to the final cleanup, giving homeowners, developers, HOAs, and municipalities peace of mind knowing the job is done right the first time.

Whether you’re planning a new home, expanding a business, or reshaping a commercial property, old pavement is often the first obstacle standing in your way. We work with:

  • Residential builders and remodeling contractors
  • Commercial developers
  • Industrial facilities
  • Schools, churches, and medical centers
  • Property managers and business owners

Our crew removes outdated surfaces quickly so construction crews can begin grading, utility installation, or foundation prep without interruption.

Not every project requires a full tear-out. Sometimes only damaged sections need to be removed while the remaining pavement stays intact. We offer selective removal services including:

  • Cutting and removing failing asphalt sections
  • Removing concrete pads or damaged areas only
  • Isolating cracked or sunken sections without harming good pavement
  • Preparing patch areas for resurfacing or repaving

This approach helps property owners save time and money while still restoring safety and function to their paved areas.
