FAQs About Our Concrete Scanning Services
Concrete scanning is used to locate hidden objects and assess the structure of concrete before any drilling, cutting, or coring work. It helps protect structural integrity, prevents damage to embedded utilities, and ensures the safety of workers on site.
GPR sends high-frequency electromagnetic signals into concrete. When these signals encounter different materials—such as rebar, pipes, or voids—they bounce back to the surface. This reflection is captured and processed to create a real-time image of what lies beneath the concrete surface.
Yes. Scanning before any cutting or drilling reduces the risk of striking hidden utilities or damaging structural components. It ensures the work is safer, more accurate, and avoids costly repairs or delays.
The duration of a scan depends on the size and complexity of the area. Small sections can often be scanned in under an hour, while larger or more complex surfaces may take several hours. Our team provides a clear time estimate before starting any project.
Concrete scanning is highly effective at identifying most common embedded objects, including rebar, post-tension cables, pipes, and voids. However, some materials or extremely dense areas may require additional investigation or complementary detection methods to ensure complete accuracy.
