How to Prevent Random Cracks in Concrete
How does the saying go? “ice cream melts and concrete cracks”. A common problem faced by most concrete contractors is the uncontrolled and random cracking of concrete. This unsightly phenomenon..
Learn MoreCompleted by a team of experts with extensive experience in the construction industry, we guarantee fast and efficient core drilling services for all your project requirements at any given worksite.
LEAVE CORE DRILLING TO THE EXPERTS
All worksites are left clean & tidy ready for the next phase of construction. Thanks to our full range of diamond wall bits, our concrete core drilling services can manage any of your technical requirements.
No concrete is too tough for our core drilling services, as we can even drill through steel-reinforced concrete.
We offer a range of standard core sizes, and other sizes may be available upon request.
Core drilling is generally needed to create openings through existing concrete or brick structures for the following:
Plumbing piping
Electrical conduits and cables
Reinforcements — starter bars, hold down bolts, storage units
Home extensions
Commercial fit outs
Most Suitable Core Drilling Technique
We understand every workspace is different, whether it’s residential housing, confined areas of apartment living, commercial fit-outs/repurposing, or noise-sensitive spaces such as hospitals, healthcare facilities or schools, we employ the most suitable techniques and tools that’s suited to your project.
Using the best core drilling equipment from major brands such as Husqvarna and Stihl, we are capable of drilling holes from 12 - 800mm in diameter to any depth through walls & floors, into any existing concrete, brick and stone structures.
Safety Is Our Priority
Operating the latest in Diamond Core Drilling equipment, our qualified and experienced teamwork to the highest standards of safety to deliver rock-solid results that meet all your project needs.
We continually invest in the latest drill rigs and safety training. We are active members of the Concrete Sawing and Drilling Association of Australia, and we are committed to providing a safe work environment and delivering nothing short of high-quality workmanship.
Timeliness and Accountability
In order to achieve absolute precision, we use the latest in Diamond Core Drilling Technology and GPR Scanning equipment to provide smarter, more precise core drilling & concrete cutting services to meet strict deadlines.
We make sure you know exactly what lies within your concrete before cutting and drilling. Once the job is done, all work sites are left clean & tidy ready for the next phase of construction, eliminating delays.

We Practice Safety
A site induction is conducted upon arrival before any work is started. A safety evaluation of the risk of the job — site evaluation, first aid kit, ventilation, fans, work heights and relevant tickets — are checked.
With attention to details, we plan and organise every project so that everything runs smoothly, making sure sites are left clean, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries.
We Invest In Safe Equipment
Safety does not end with just the operators, it extends to the equipment being used. All equipment is kept in exceptional condition, regularly maintained & repaired, and is thoroughly inspected and tested before being used on site. Our safe practices allow us to recommend the right tool for the job, reducing the risk of accidents and injuries.
Better To GPR Scan Than Be Sorry
To ensure worksite safety, the concrete to be cut or cored should always be inspected and scanned before drilling begins.
With our GPR concrete scanning equipment, we can locate live electrical conduits and structural steel, before we begin cutting. It is the most cost-effective and non-destructive method to ensure you avoid a costly mistake while maintaining worksite safety.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
At Diamond Cut Concrete we use the latest in diamond core drilling technology to effectively create holes in existing concrete, brick and stone structures to make openings for plumbing, electrical conduits, cabling and HVAC installations.
The main difference between conventional drilling equipment and diamond core technology is for the fact that the drill bits use diamond beads. It is a far more effective and efficient method for coring concrete, while improving worksite safety conditions.
Concrete core drilling costs will vary depending on the project requirements such as the depth, diameter and material but cored. Speak to Diamond Cut Concrete today for a tailored solution that’s suited to your project’s timeline and budget.
