Frequently Asked Questions
Concrete scanning is a non-destructive process that identifies hidden components like rebar, pipes, electrical conduits, and voids within concrete structures. It provides the insight needed for safe and precise cutting, drilling, or coring.
Scanning prevents accidental damage to structural reinforcements and embedded utilities, reduces safety hazards for workers, and helps avoid costly repairs and project delays caused by unseen obstacles.
We use advanced technology such as Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and electromagnetic sensors to detect materials within concrete. The equipment produces detailed maps of hidden objects without causing any damage.
Concrete scanning should be done before drilling, cutting, coring, or any structural modification to ensure hidden elements are identified and the project remains safe and compliant.
Builders, contractors, engineers, renovators, utility companies, and property owners—all projects involving concrete with potential hidden elements—benefit from scanning services.
While concrete scanning is highly effective for locating rebar, post-tension cables, pipes, and voids, very dense or unusual materials may require supplementary inspection methods for complete detection.
Yes. The process is completely non-invasive, leaving the concrete intact. Our trained operators follow strict safety protocols to protect both the site and personnel.
Modern scanning technology delivers highly accurate results, often within millimetres, allowing precise planning for drilling, cutting, and coring with confidence.
Scan duration depends on the size and complexity of the area. Small surfaces can often be scanned in under an hour, while larger or more detailed areas may take several hours. A time estimate is provided before starting.
Reports from the scan provide a clear layout of hidden objects, guiding safe drilling, cutting, or renovations. They help prevent costly mistakes, reduce risks, and support efficient project planning.
