What is Concrete Coring?
Concrete coring is a precise drilling method that removes cylindrical samples (cores) from concrete, asphalt, or masonry using diamond-tipped drill bits. Unlike percussive methods, coring is non-destructive, reducing vibration and preserving surrounding materials. It’s the go-to solution for projects requiring clean, accurate, and safe openings.
✔ Smooth & clean openings
✔ Range of diameters (from 1 inch up to 60+ inches)
✔ Depths of over 100 feet possible
✔ Horizontal, vertical, and angled coring

Common Applications of Concrete Coring
Structural Modifications
Need to alter load-bearing elements? Coring allows for precise alterations while maintaining surrounding structural integrity.
Utility Installations
Create pathways for plumbing, HVAC, electrical wiring, or telecom cabling through floors, walls, or ceilings—quickly and cleanly.
Core Sample Collection & Material Testing
Extract cores for lab testing and quality assurance to meet engineering specs, assess aging infrastructure, or verify compliance.
Retrofitting & Renovation Projects
Coring is essential for integrating new systems or utilities into existing structures during renovations or upgrades.
Advanced Core Drilling Capabilities
Core Drilling in Occupied or Sensitive Spaces
Using low-noise, low-vibration tools and advanced dust collection, we ensure a clean and safe environment even in active facilities like hospitals, schools, or offices.
Angled Core Drilling for Complex Access Points
Special rigs and adjustable mounts allow for angled drilling through ceilings, walls, and awkward surfaces—perfect for tight or irregular locations.
Real-Time Dust & Debris Control
Our system includes HEPA filters and water-cooled drills to keep dust levels safe and compliant with OSHA standards, especially in occupied environments.
Scan Before You Core – Concrete Hazard Detection
Before drilling, Connor Concrete uses Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and digital X-ray scanning to locate rebar, post-tension cables, and utilities hidden inside concrete. This ensures maximum safety and avoids costly project delays.
Don’t risk hitting embedded hazards—scan before you core.
Do I Need Permits or Inspections for Core Drilling?
Yes, in some cases.
Core drilling in load-bearing structures, public infrastructure, or occupied buildings may require approval from building inspectors or local authorities. Our team helps you navigate permit requirements to ensure full compliance.
