We provide a wide range of concrete scanning, utility locating, and drone mapping services to ensure the safety and efficiency of your construction projects.
Our concrete scanning services use advanced Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) technology to detect and map embedded objects within concrete structures. This non-destructive testing method provides accurate information about the location of rebar, post-tension cables, conduits, and voids, allowing for safe drilling, cutting, and coring operations.
Post-tension (PT) deck scanning is a specialized service that focuses on locating and mapping post-tension cables in concrete decks. These cables are critical structural elements, and damaging them during drilling or cutting can lead to catastrophic failures. Our PT deck scanning service ensures that you have accurate information about the location of these cables before any invasive work begins.
Our structural deck scanning service provides comprehensive information about the reinforcement in concrete decks, slabs, and floors. This service is essential for renovation projects, structural assessments, and any work that requires drilling, cutting, or coring through concrete structures. We use advanced GPR technology to create detailed maps of rebar, mesh, and other embedded objects.
Our concrete wall scanning service is designed to locate and map embedded objects within vertical concrete structures. This service is crucial for renovation projects, electrical and plumbing installations, and any work that requires drilling or cutting into concrete walls. We provide accurate information about the location of rebar, conduits, and other embedded objects to ensure safe and efficient operations.
Our utility locating services help identify and map underground utilities such as water, gas, electric, and communication lines. This service is essential for preventing costly and dangerous utility strikes during excavation, drilling, or construction activities. We use a combination of GPR technology and electromagnetic locators to provide accurate information about the location and depth of underground utilities.
Our drone mapping services provide aerial imagery and data collection for construction sites, allowing for accurate site planning, progress monitoring, and volumetric analysis. This service is valuable for large-scale projects, earthwork calculations, and site documentation. We use advanced drone technology and photogrammetry software to create detailed maps, 3D models, and orthomosaic images of your project site.

Find answers to common questions about our concrete scanning and imaging services.
GPR concrete scanning is highly accurate, typically providing results within 1/2 inch of the actual location of embedded objects. However, various factors can affect accuracy, including concrete density, moisture content, and the depth of embedded objects. Our technicians are trained to interpret GPR data with precision and will clearly mark all detected objects on the surface.
The depth penetration of GPR in concrete typically ranges from 12 to 24 inches, depending on the concrete density, moisture content, and the frequency of the GPR antenna. Higher frequency antennas provide better resolution but less depth penetration, while lower frequency antennas offer greater depth but less detail. Our technicians select the appropriate antenna based on your specific project requirements.
Concrete scanning can detect a wide range of embedded objects, including rebar, post-tension cables, conduits, pipes, voids, honeycombing, and other anomalies. GPR is particularly effective at detecting metallic objects, but it can also identify non-metallic objects based on the difference in density and dielectric properties between the object and the surrounding concrete.
The duration of a concrete scanning project depends on several factors, including the size of the area to be scanned, the complexity of the embedded objects, and the level of detail required. A small area (e.g., a few drill locations) might take only an hour or two, while a large area (e.g., an entire floor of a building) could take several days. We can provide a more accurate timeline during the consultation phase of your project.
To provide an accurate quote, we typically need information about the project location, type of structure (slab, wall, deck, etc.), approximate square footage to be scanned, project timeline, and specific requirements (what you're looking for or trying to avoid). Photos or drawings of the area are also helpful. The more details you can provide, the more precise our quote will be.
