Using advanced Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and electromagnetic methods, we provide safe, accurate, and non-destructive results. Our concrete scanning services are trusted by builders, contractors, and property owners across NSW for slabs, walls, and structural inspections.

What is Concrete Scanning?

Concrete scanning is a non-destructive method used to locate hidden features within concrete structures before any work begins. By using Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and electromagnetic equipment, we can accurately detect reinforcement steel, post-tension cables, conduits, pipes, and voids. This process protects your project from costly damage, improves safety for workers, and ensures compliance with Australian construction standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Concrete Scanning?

Concrete scanning is a non-destructive testing method that uses Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) or X-ray technology to detect what’s inside a concrete slab or structure before drilling, cutting, or coring. It helps locate rebar, post-tension cables, conduits, and voids to prevent costly damage and safety risks on construction sites. Professional concrete scanning ensures your project is carried out efficiently, safely, and in compliance with Australian standards.
The cost of concrete scanning in Australia typically ranges from $250 to $600, depending on the project size, accessibility, and complexity. Small residential jobs may be on the lower end, while larger commercial or industrial projects can be higher. Investing in concrete scanning saves money in the long run by preventing accidental strikes to hidden services, structural damage, and project delays. For an exact quote, it’s best to contact a trusted concrete scanning specialist.
Concrete scanning with modern GPR equipment is highly accurate, generally locating objects within ±10 mm to 20 mm. Accuracy can vary based on slab thickness, material density, and site conditions, but in most cases it provides precise, reliable results. When performed by trained technicians, concrete scanning delivers a clear picture of what’s beneath the surface, helping ensure safe drilling, cutting, or excavation.
