Services
Core Drilling
Our hydraulic core drilling service creates precise openings in concrete for utility installations. With over 40 years of experience, we handle projects requiring plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and communication conduit access. Our diamond bit drillers ensure clean, accurate cuts while maintaining structural integrity, supported by custom equipment designed for challenging applications.
Asphalt Sawing
We provide specialized asphalt sawing solutions for road maintenance and repair projects. Our expertise includes precise cutting for pothole repairs, road expansions, and utility installations. Using purpose-built equipment, we ensure clean edges and minimal disruption to traffic flow while maintaining safety standards for municipal and commercial clients.
Wall Sawing
Our wall sawing service creates accurate openings in concrete structures for windows, doors, and utility access. Using track-mounted circular saws, we achieve precise cuts in both new construction and existing buildings. This method ensures structural stability while minimizing dust and debris through water-cooled cutting techniques.
Bridge Cutting
We specialize in bridge cutting operations requiring precision and safety. Our team handles complex projects involving arched beams, pier caps, and bridge bases. Using specialized safety tools and techniques, we perform upgrades and modifications while maintaining traffic flow and structural integrity for municipal infrastructure projects.
X-Ray & GPR Scanning
Our non-destructive testing service uses x-ray and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) to map subsurface structures. This technology identifies rebar, conduits, and voids before cutting or drilling operations. By revealing hidden obstacles, we prevent damage to infrastructure and ensure worker safety during concrete modification projects.

Excellent service! Professionalism to the core! The expert cut my curb to expand my driveway which was done in a seamless manner. He was able to match the texture of the newly added concrete to the existing concrete. Thanks Ace cutting and Coring ! I will definitely use them for further concrete work in near future!
