The type of material the current driveway is constructed from can heavily impact the pricing. It does not cost much to remove and dispose of a simple asphalt driveway. Whereas, a concrete driveway will carry a significant expense to demolish, remove and dispose. Removing a concrete driveway requiring a heavy-duty concrete breaker to break the large slabs into smaller pieces which can be very time consuming. This type of existing driveway material can add an expense of $4 to $10 per square foot to remove depending on the quality and thickness of the concrete.

If the gravel base under the existing driveway is not sufficient, this can add an expense of $4 to $6 to excavate and replace it with the 10” to 12” of base material required to supposed a residential interlocking driveway.
