Scan-and-drill, same visit, every time.
Concrete scanning built around how trades actually work: per-location clearance in 15–30 minutes, marks your crew drills against immediately, standby re-scanning on congested floors, documentation your GC and engineer accept first pass — and account terms once we're your standing vendor.
Location count + slab type = firm quote in five minutes · Mon–Sat 8am–6pm PT
Why contractors keep us on speed dial
Schedule risk
A struck conduit stops the floor. A struck PT cable stops the project. Scanning is the cheapest schedule insurance on the job.
Liability flow-down
Damage clauses flow to whoever drilled. Our per-location documentation is the diligence record that protects your contract position.
Layout integrity
Obstructed points get marked offsets, not shrugs — your sleeve and anchor layout survives contact with the slab.
One vendor, every city
Same pricing, same report format, same techs across 47 BC cities. Multi-site contractors stop re-sourcing scanning per project.
How a coring scope runs with us
- 1
Send the layout
Core/anchor plan or even a marked-up photo — location count and slab type produce a firm quote the same call.
- 2
We scan ahead of the drill
Each point scanned in two directions; embeds identified and painted, clear windows marked, obstructed points offset on the spot.
- 3
Your crew drills immediately
No report-waiting period for clearance work. Congested floors get standby re-scanning as cores advance.
- 4
Documentation lands same day
Marked photos + depth tables per location, emailed before your crew loads the truck — the file the GC, engineer, and your insurer all want to exist.
Contractor questions, answered
Can you scan the same day we core?
That's the default workflow, not a premium. We scan each location (15–30 minutes including marks), your crew drills against the paint immediately, and for congested floors we stand by — re-scanning offsets in real time as the scope evolves. One mobilisation for both trades.
How do you price multi-location scopes?
Per visit, banded by location count: 1–5 locations typically $350–$500; 10–40 location TI scopes typically $500–$1,500; full-day standby by day rate. Repeat contractors get account terms — net invoicing, priority windows, and consistent techs who learn your buildings.
What documentation do we get for the GC / engineer?
Marked photographs per location, depth tables, slab type and PT determination, and scan imagery on request — the diligence record engineers condition coring permission on, and the file you produce if anything is ever questioned. WorkSafe-aligned, every visit.
What happens when a location isn't clear?
You get the nearest safe offset marked on the spot — keeping your layout intent — plus the reason (PT cable, conduit cluster, beam steel). We don't just say no; we say where instead. Final structural calls stay with the engineer of record where one is engaged.
Do you handle after-hours and occupied-building work?
Occupied buildings are routine — GPR is silent, radiation-free, and needs no evacuation, so business-hours scanning is normal. Scheduling runs Mon–Sat 8am–6pm PT; multi-floor programs are sequenced around your trades, not the other way around.
Which cities do you cover?
All 47 BC cities in our standing coverage — Metro Vancouver, Fraser Valley, Sea-to-Sky, Island, Okanagan, Kootenays, and the North — at identical pricing. If your projects move, your scanning vendor doesn't have to change.
