We've just had a guy in to remove the slab from our old garage. It
was a foot thick. He levered up the end with a JCB, then hit it with
a sledge. Then hit it again. And again.... he's darnn fit.
I was more thinking 3 -4" of unreinforced footpath.
What was the upshot of your garage floor?

He got it into bits small enough to load and take away.

One thing to watch is flying chips and nearby glass.

In other news, today the BCO came and told us we can't start on the new
one until the ground water level has dropped enough that the foundation
trenches won't flood

Oh! Does he not realise concrete is heavier than water?
