I had 1 slab heave, and thankfully dropped about 90%, so I was thinking of doing the same. Luckly I do have the Hilti tool at my disposal, which has a vac attached.
While driving home the other day I saw a great cloud of smoke and cars swerving up ahead.
There were two Indian dudes trying to grind the sidewalk witha 7" grinder with regular carborundum discs, they weren't getting too far. Later on that evening I saw the guy chipping the concrete witha flooring chisel trying to smooth put the damage.
We have a ton of Indian and Pakistani "masonary contractors" in Brooklyn. 90% work like back home, no tools, no safety, and always a big mess. Every once in a while you'll see a good contractor, but he gets more $ for his work.
