Ottawa is Canada’s capital city, and the fourth largest urban region in Canada with a population of 1.4 million. It is regularly ranked as the best place to live in Canada, and people are increasingly becoming aware of its beauty and diversity. It has caught the eye of Xradar as a location with huge potential to grow the business.

Existing senior Xradar team members will be located in Ottawa to provide the same Enhanced Concrete Imaging services that are available from other Xradar offices across Canada.

The immediate area being serviced from this Ottawa division will be the Greater Ottawa-Gatineau region. This new Ottawa office now provides Xradar the ability to service all customers within Ontario in a timely manner, including satellite locations between Toronto and Ottawa.

A reminder – what is Xradar?

Xradar is the Engineering Standard for Concrete Imaging! Our Xradar method for concrete imaging reduces scanning errors to less than 1% compared to the 25% typical for the wider GPR industry.

Xradar can distinguish conduits and PT cables from rebar, including those hidden behind rebar. It produces consistent results on either structural concrete surfaces or concrete slab on grade.

The ability to develop such a product stems from extensive industry experience (30+ years), alongside comprehensive training, state of the art equipment, and desire to always achieve perfection.

The quality is nicely summarised by the accuracy of Xradar reporting. If you’d like to know more about the reports available to you, please read this article.

    The Importance of Detecting Post-Tension Cables Before Drilling

    When it comes to concrete construction, few hazards carry as much risk as post-tension (PT) cables. These high-strength steel tendons are designed to reinforce and stabilize slabs, and they are tensioned with tens of thousands of pounds of force. Striking one while drilling or coring is a costly mistake.
