Specialists in Subsurface Imaging and Concrete Services

NATIONWIDE CONCRETE IMAGING & CORING

Xradar™ provides industry-leading ground penetrating radar (GPR) services across Canada, primarily offering unmatched accuracy in concrete scanning, coring, and cutting. Using proprietary technology and advanced methods, our technicians deliver the clarity of X-ray with the safety and speed of GPR. Whether detecting voids, mapping corrosion, or confirming a clear area for drilling, we give engineers and contractors the confidence to build, maintain, cut, and core concrete structures safely.

WHY BUSINESSES CHOOSE XRADAR

A guarantee that gives you assurance

At Xradar™, every concrete scanning project is backed by our accuracy guarantee – a promise that sets us apart from any other concrete scanning company in Canada. We work with you to reduce risk, avoid costly damage, and ensure your project stays on schedule. Here’s what makes our approach different.

Measurable Accuracy

Using advanced ground penetrating radar (GPR) and proprietary scanning methods, Xradar reduces concrete scanning errors to under 0.03%. That means when you scan before you core or cut, you can move forward with certainty and avoid costly rework or damage.

Certified by Xradar Academy™

Every Xradar™ technician completes our in-house Xradar Academy certification. This ensures consistent quality, technical expertise, and safe scanning practices across all our locations.

Consistency Across Canada

From local renovations to national infrastructure projects, we maintain unified service standards across all offices. You’ll get the same dependable results from Vancouver to Halifax – every scan and every report follow consistent policies and procedures.

Reliability in an Unregulated Industry

In an industry without formal regulation, Xradar sets its own benchmark. Our leading technicians are geophysics and engineering professionals, ensuring every scan meets professional and technical expectations before you commit to cutting or coring concrete.

Innovation That’s Always Moving Forward

We develop our own software, hardware, and testing environments to continuously improve performance. This hands-on innovation keeps our scanning and reporting at the forefront of safety and accuracy.

Employee-Owned, Client-Focused

As an employee-owned company, we take pride in delivering precise, transparent work. Our reputation is built into every scan and every customer interaction.

EXPLORE OUR SERVICES

Xradar™ provides a complete range of concrete scanning and coring services for construction, engineering, and concrete inspection projects.

Concrete Scanning

Locate and map the position of post-tension cables, voids, rebar and electrical conduits, and anything else embedded in concrete.

Concrete Coring

Clean, dust-free, efficient, and precise diamond core drilling, typically for plumbing, electrical, or HVAC needs. We boast one of the industry’s highest no-hit success rates.

Concrete Cutting

Precise and safe concrete cutting, including slab-on-grade and topping slab cutting. Commonly required for structural modifications, remodeling a space, installing utilities, or laying decorative tile.

Concrete Corrosion Mapping

Detect and map the existence and extent of corrosion before it becomes structural damage. Enable targeted repairs, supporting preventative maintenance and asset management.

Concrete Delamination Detection

Detect and map delamination in concrete slabs to inform repair decisions, helping to avoid safety hazards, costly repairs, or full slab replacement.

Void & Crack Detection

Locate and map voids and cracks non-destructively, enabling precise repairs and efficient maintenance of your concrete structure.

Pre-Design Concrete Scanning

Scan a space prior to design for conflict-free core hole positioning. Provide architects, designers, and engineers pre-pour layouts of PT, conduits, rebar, and more.

Pre-Pour Documentation

Capture accurate in-slab conditions before pouring concrete. Explore remotely with Site-Walk™. View formwork, conduits, rebar, PT cables & all other embedded objects.

Building Information Modelling (BIM)

View a true-to-site digital model that enables smarter design, efficient construction, and reliable asset management. Reduce risk and improve project outcomes.

Structural Investigation

Learn integral details of your concrete structure in order to work out carrying capacity. Receive a report on concrete thickness, reinforcement cover, spacing & diameter, foundation locations & more.

Visual Inspection

Detect deterioration, identify potential failures early, and inform decisions on existing infrastructure. Help ensure the long-term integrity of buildings, bridges, tunnels, tanks, reservoirs, and industrial assets.

Indoor Utility Locating

Locate utilities inside building structures above, within, and below concrete slabs safely, accurately, and without guesswork.

More FAQs & Resources
  • This very much depends on the specifics of the area needing scanning – the size, the depth, the access points, the contents of that slab, and your motivation for scanning in the first place. A scan could take anywhere between 30 minutes and a few hours, depending on the situation. Larger or multi-slab projects may take longer, but we’ll always estimate timelines before work begins.

  • Yes – a huge advantage of GPR over X-ray. Our technicians are also trained and equipped for live construction environments, with in-depth knowledge of your projects. We coordinate with your safety officers and comply with all site-specific requirements.

  • We provide both scanning and cutting/coring services. Our scanning always comes first to ensure safe drilling; then our coring/cutting teams (who are trained to read Xradar scans) execute using the scan data.
