Scanning for Concrete Coring & Cutting
Every core and saw-cut into structural concrete risks a post-tension cable or conduit. A pre-cut GPR scan clears the path so the blade never finds a surprise.
Leaks.ca is the educational leak detection hub and service-support division of Leak.ca, helping BC property owners understand leak risks and connect with professional detection services when needed.
Coring, cutting and drilling contractors need each penetration location scanned before they cut — mapping rebar, post-tension cables and conduit so the work is safe and the structure is protected.
What Coring & Cutting Need
Methods for Coring & Cutting
A scan before every core and saw-cut so the blade never finds a cable or conduit.
See inside a slab or wall — rebar, post-tension, conduit, voids — before any core or cut.
Map reinforcement and tensioned cables precisely so a penetration never strikes one.
Measure slab thickness and map structure non-destructively, without coring to check.
FAQ
On structural concrete, yes — especially post-tensioned slabs. A struck cable is a serious safety and structural event, and a cut conduit causes outages. A quick pre-core scan clears the location and is far cheaper than the consequences of a strike.
