Because the new builders next door are using a JCB with a big pneumatic drill and it's doing my head in.
Alternatively, what hoses do I need to cut to stop the thing working?
Just pop on over & casually ask if they know a high power mains cable lies underneath.
You've only got tool jealousy.
Would it cheer you up to know that that hydraulic breaker is called a pecker?
Go next door and tell him that you can't concentrate on account of being distracted by his enormous pecker. 😯
Tool jealousy indeed.
😀
Very Freudian.

Fair bit of efflorescence on the brickwork. Road lining needs redone. Empty Chips and cheese container. Flagrant violation of the No Parking sign 3/10 😉
Digging up a a concrete slab in Maryhill?
There may be more than cables under there... 😯
Yes, the mess is all theirs too - lots of bits of polystyrene insulation blowing about.
I've got no space inside the shop for that thing at the moment 😉
Theres a quiet way to do it using a [url= http://theweekly.co.uk/4401/irregular_dread/ ]Lilac Bush and a box of matches[/url]
For a ground slab, not really. Could saw cut and remove in sections but still noisy.
For raised slabs we let the dinosaurs feed 😀

Bad news.
You've got 66 weeks of this ahead of you when they start overcladding Cedar Court after Christmas. 😕
Just be thankful your not further down the road at the old Sunday Post place that is currently being demolished, noise and dust aplenty!
Only quiet way I can think of is to leave them in the rain and wait for erosion to happen.
I'm not saying it's a quick way, just quiet.
Are they demolishing that whole thing? I tried to get in there just after it closed, but it was incredibly tight for security.
Prisoners used to dig through walls with their spoons, I saw it in a documentary - there was a sewage pipe involved too I think.

Your thread title may have only been a rhetorical question, Ben, but the answer is, yes:

In answer to OP. Yes, but it's not as much fun. It's only a baby one too.
Freeze/thaw erosion'll do it. Well, it'll make a little noise but spread out over a thousand years or so, so you'll probably not notice
They managed it in Hatton Garden over Easter, and nobody heard a thing
thermic lance- melt right through it
