Demo took longer than expected. The patio slab was 6" thick and up to 8" thick in some areas. Whoever poured it was also nice enough to strategically place some #6 rebar

Wow! Looks like my 16'x50' patio we tore out when building my pool last spring! The prior homeowner had done a cheap "Samoan" concrete job, and the slab had poor drainage and looked like it had been finished by a 3 yr. old with a broom. My PB thought they could tear it out in a about two hours. Two days later, we figured out it had enough rebar for a bridge! It ranged from 4 to 6 to 8 inches thick.
