GPR - Concrete Scanning
Contact



Core-vette can quickly locate rebar, post-tension cables, electrical conduit, and any other metallic and non-metallic items inside a concrete slab. Drilling  or cutting through walls or slabs can be very costly and dangerous if you don’t know what lies beneath the surface. Unlike X-ray our equipment is not harmful to other people working in the area. There is no need for evacuation of any areas above or below. Scanning can be completed  during normal business hours which helps to keep costs  lower than alternative means of locating objects. We can often scan an area and core or cut it in the same trip which can help to further reduce costs.
