SERVICE OVERVIEW
If your project requires precision, diamond concrete coring (often called concrete drilling) then look no further than Xradar, across Canada.
Diamond Concrete Coring (often called Concrete Drilling) is used when a precise circular penetration is needed at any angle. This regularly accommodates plumbing, electrical or HVAC in a concrete structure.
Xradar Concrete Coring is setting the standard for clean and efficient concrete coring and drilling, with a no-hit success rate that’s one of the highest in the industry.
Common Applications for Concrete Coring
Our concrete coring services are essential for a wide range of structural and diagnostic applications across commercial and industrial projects. We frequently partner with contractors and engineers for:
Utility & MEP Installations: We create precise, clean pathways through existing concrete slabs and walls to accommodate plumbing lines, floor drains, HVAC ductwork, and electrical or telecommunications conduits.
Core Sampling & Material Testing: Beyond creating functional openings, we expertly extract intact concrete cores. These high-quality samples allow structural engineers to accurately test compressive strength, assess chloride ingress, and evaluate the overall integrity of the concrete.
Stitch Drilling for Custom Openings: When a project requires large or irregularly shaped openings where traditional concrete saws cannot safely operate or fit, our technicians utilize stitch drilling. By creating a series of overlapping core holes, we enable controlled, precise concrete removal in any environment.
Seismic Upgrades & Structural Retrofitting: Precision is critical when reinforcing older structures. Concrete coring provides the exact hole specifications needed for installing anchor bolts, dowels, and other vital structural reinforcements without compromising or micro-fracturing the surrounding concrete.
Benefits
Xradar regularly cores safely & cleanly in the following areas
Train control rooms
Large Internet Service Provider backup server rooms
High end retail stores & malls
Federal & provincial courthouses
The Xradar Coring teams take pride in being clean and efficient, ensuring that the client’s space is returned to its original state. Using dust free, low noise output, and low disruption methods, the coring team leaves nothing more than a perfectly cut core hole beside the original scanned workings. The team then send a daily digital report clearly summarizing work complete.
Trained to read Xradar concrete scans
The team only core locations that were previously scanned by Xradar Concrete Scanning technicians to ensure the highest level of concrete imaging is available to the Coring Team before penetrating a structure.
Technicians are experienced with slab scanning and cutting in the most difficult buildings; ranging from provincial courthouses, server rooms of major ISPs, and Train stations.
