Do you have a concrete problem, but you aren’t sure of an appropriate solution? Give KC Coring and Cutting a call. We will visit your job site and give you a recommendation on how to fix it.




Sometimes, your problem can be fixed with concrete core drilling. Here are some applications for concrete coring.





    We can help cut the necessary openings for plumbing

Are you adding a bathroom to your basement? Do you need to install or access pipes underneath concrete slabs or behind concrete walls? An expert at concrete core drilling can help you with this project. Don’t try to do this job yourself!





    We can help your HVAC company install new ductwork.



Concrete core drillers are sometimes needed to install new heating and cooling systems, especially when new ductwork is needed. We also help homeowners with sprinkler systems.





    Your electrician may need our help!



Concrete core drilling is sometimes necessary for adding conduit for a new wiring project.





    We can help with your landscaping project.


Landscapers also need our help with concrete core drilling when they are installing fountains or creating a patio.





    We can help with any concrete coring project!



Some of our concrete coring jobs don’t fall within the preceding four easy categories. Concrete coring equipment can drill large or small holes to any depth that are a quarter-inch to 66 inches in diameter. A circular wire saw can also be used to drill any size or depth holes, as well as create access to both sides. We can even drill holes under water.




So whether you are working on a construction or renovation project, a technician trained in concrete coring can create a precisely-cut hole to your specifications.




 

How do you choose a company to complete this work?

 

First, find a company that has a lot of experience with this type of work. When you are drilling holes through concrete, you’ve got to get it right the first time. Work with a company that has a proven track record and one that has an in-depth understanding of building construction.




 

Second, check the company’s safety record. You don’t know what may be underneath the surface of the concrete slab you are coring through (or cutting!). Make sure you hire a company that uses the latest technology to take a peek inside the surface.




 

Next, work with a company that has a good relationship with other crews. You don’t want your electricians or plumbers waiting around for the concrete cutting company to show up at the job site. You want to hire a company that will complete the work on time and as expected.




Finally, reach out to a company that specializes in this type of work. Expert concrete cutters use the best equipment that is well-maintained. After all, their livelihood depends on it.
