Core drilling
Clean, accurate penetrations through slabs, walls and footings. Wet cored and slurry controlled, so the hole is the only thing we leave behind.
Holes where you need them
Core drilling cuts a clean circular hole through concrete without cracking or spalling the slab around it. It is the right method anywhere a jackhammer would do damage you would have to make good later.
We drill through floor slabs, walls, footings, blockwork and suspended slabs, vertically, horizontally and on an angle.
What we get called for
- Plumbing penetrations for waste, stormwater and supply
- Electrical and data conduit through slabs and walls
- HVAC and ducting penetrations
- Balustrade and handrail post holes
- Chemical anchor and starter bar holes
- Air-conditioning pipe runs through external walls
- Test cores for slab thickness and sampling
- Dowel holes for slab joins
Unfortunately we cannot help with demolition, spoil removal, GPR scanning or service locating. We will happily cut to a locator's marks.
What we need to know
Three things get a drilling job priced accurately over the phone.
- How thick. Slab or wall depth decides the rig and the time.
- How many, and what size. Hole count and diameter drive the quote more than anything else.
- Access and power. Whether we can get the truck close, and what is available on site.
If there is reinforcement, post-tensioning or services in the slab, have it located and marked before we arrive. We will drill to the marks.
