DIAMOND DRILLING
Efficient and non-vibratory method of forming holes
A form of core drilling which uses a drill with a diamond drill bit to create precisely measured holes. It is ideal for creating openings in a range of materials including tarmac, brick work and reinforced concrete.
HYDRAULIC BURSTING
Minimal Percussive Noise
Helps minimise breaking of reinforced concrete. Can be used to split concrete or rock formations into smaller pieces so they are more manageable and creates less noise pollution and vibration.
DIAMOND TRACK AND WALL SAWING
Fast and Highly Accurate
The most versatile, efficient and precise method for creating openings in reinforced concrete and masonry structures. Perfect for creating:
- Door and Window Openings
- Lift Shaft Openings
- Vent Openings
- Staircase Removal
- Demolition Lines
WALL AND FLOOR CHASING
Fast, cost effective and dust-free.
An effective technique that is used for trimming neat channels in masonry or concrete structures (chases). This method results in clean and accurate channels for pipework and cables.
DIAMOND FLOOR SAWING
Inexpensive, quick, efficient and dust free.
The most effective way to cut through horizontal reinforced concrete, asphalt and granite surfaces. It uses a large spinning, diamond-tipped circular blade to create clean cuts and straight lines through hard surfaces.
ROBOTIC DEMOLITION
Safe and Controlled
Remote controlled demolition robots provide a fast and safe form of demolition. Compact, agile and powerful, with a wide range of attachments which can be utilised such as hammers, crunching jaws and digging buckets. Ideal for removal of strong rooms, staircases and to form holes in walls and floors.
CONCRETE SAMPLING & TESTING
Inspection and analysis of hardened concrete samples at UKAS Accredited Concrete Testing Laboratory. Testing is carried out to British and European Standards, and includes:
- Carbonation depth
- High Alumina cement identification
- Cement content
- Concrete strength
