Tips for Easier Concrete Nail Removal

1. If possible, remove the nails with a hammer and chisel. If this is not possible, use a pneumatic nail gun.

   2. If removing the nails with a hammer and chisel is not possible, use a pneumatic nail gun and a chisel angled at a 45-degree angle. Drive the nail gun at a very high speed, making sure to keep the chisel angled correctly.

   3. Remove the nails in the same direction as the head of the nail. If the head of the nail is embedded in the concrete, use a drill and auger to remove the nail.

   4. If the head of the nail is not embedded in the concrete, use a scraper to remove the nail.

   5. If the head of the nail is embedded in the concrete and the nail cannot be removed without damaging the concrete, use a drill and auger to remove the nail and then remove the embedded piece of concrete with a chisel.
