Utah Core Drilling Services

Core Drilling in Utah

Diamond-tipped core drilling from 1″ to 52″+ diameter, any depth. Clean, precise holes in concrete, masonry, and asphalt — licensed, insured, and trusted since 1997.

What Is Core Drilling?

Core drilling uses a hollow diamond-tipped cylindrical bit to create precise circular openings in concrete, reinforced concrete, masonry block, and asphalt. Unlike chipping or breaking, core drilling produces clean edges with minimal vibration, dust, and disruption — ideal for occupied buildings and finished spaces.

Diameter Range

1″ to ″ diameter. Standard sizes available same-day; large-diameter cores scheduled quickly.

Any Depth

Extension barrels allow drilling to any required depth — through walls, floors, foundations, and grade beams.

Rebar-Safe

Diamond bits cut cleanly through rebar without damaging surrounding concrete structure.

Any Angle

Horizontal, vertical, or angled cores drilled with track-mounted or handheld rigs as the job requires.
