Core Drilling
Core drilling creates a cylinder-shaped hole in an area of concrete, removing a “core” up to any depth. This method is utilized by plumbing, electrical, and mechanical contractors who need to run pipe through a floor or wall. It can also be used in the transportation or architecture fields to create holes in existing structures such as manholes or concrete slabs for pressure testing. Ashton can create a core diameter as small as 1/2” and as large as 54.” Additionally, larger holes are possible with specialized equipment.
