A clean hole starts before the bit.
We map what is inside the slab, set the hole where it clears, and core it round and true. No cracked edges, no cut rebar, no surprises for the next trade.
-
Scan-verified holes. We locate rebar, post-tension cables, and conduit first, then place the core where it clears them.
-
Water & slurry controlled. Wet coring with vacuum recovery keeps silica dust down and the floor clean for the next trade.
-
Right size, right spot. Cored to the diameter and the mark you give us, so the sleeve, pipe, or anchor drops straight in.

Common questions
What is concrete coring?+
Coring uses a hollow diamond barrel to cut a clean, round hole straight through concrete, block, or asphalt. It removes a cylindrical core and leaves a smooth-walled hole, rather than breaking the surrounding concrete the way a hammer drill does.
What do you core through?+
Slabs and floors, concrete and block walls, footings and foundations, elevated decks, and asphalt.
Do you scan before you core?+
Yes. We run GPR to locate rebar, post-tension cables, and conduit, then place the hole where it clears them. Cutting a post-tension cable is expensive and dangerous, and scanning first is how we avoid it.
How do you control water and dust?+
We wet core and recover the slurry with vacuum control, so silica dust stays down and we do not leave water running across a finished floor.
What size holes can you core?+
From small anchor and dowel holes up to large-diameter penetrations for waste lines and ducting. Tell us the diameter and the depth and we will confirm it on the quote.
How much does core drilling cost?+
It depends on the diameter, the depth, how many holes, and access to the location. Call or request a quote and we will give you a straight number for your job.
