Concrete demo and removal?

I'm looking into replacing the concrete steps out front of my house. I know a lot of people have done theirs in my neighbourhood (Douglas area) and I'm hoping will share their experience. Did you hire a company and how much did it cost? Or did you rent equipment and DIY it?

My neighbor skirted his concrete steps with wood. It’s daring but modest.

I helped do that once ... I did not like doing it, felt wrong.

Post the pic and let redditors bid. If they screw your over or do a bad job you can report them here to bring shame to their online nicknames.

Thought I remember seeing a solution at home depot

rent a hammer drill, drill some holes. pour this solution into the stairs and due to the expansion process the concrete breaks.

probably more for the older full concrete not the precast ones now

I got "Adam's custom concrete", to do some removal at our place and it worked out to be basically the same price as renting the tools and doing it myself.

small companies do what they can, they definitely do good work though.

I've heard good things about Waxy's Bobcat
