Core Drilling and Wall Chasing Services

Core Drilling: Unlocking Precision and Efficiency

Concrete coring and concrete chasing have evolved into specialised fields, revolutionising how we create openings in concrete walls and floors. At Connacht Core Drilling & Wall Chasing, we harness the power of these advanced techniques to make your projects smoother and more efficient than ever before.

What is Core Drilling?

Core drilling is the art of creating precise holes in concrete, reinforced concrete, stone, masonry, blockwork, and brick using diamond drill bits. This method offers unparalleled accuracy and control over hole measurements and depth. With its non-percussive rotary action, structural integrity is maintained throughout the drilling process.

Where Core Drilling Excels

Our core drills and diamond bits can cut holes ranging from 1/2" to unlimited diameters and depths when used in conjunction with a circle wire saw. This versatility enables us to drill holes level, plumb, or at various angles, whether above or below ground. Commonly, core drilling is used on walls, ceilings, roofs, bridges, tunnels, and road surfaces. It's also ideal for test sampling of concrete and asphalt.

Benefits Over Traditional Methods

Core drilling outperforms traditional methods in several ways. It expedites the routing of cables, conduit pipes, and wires through structures for renovations, demolition, or new construction. Unlike labour-intensive concrete cutting and chasing, core drilling is fast and efficient. It reduces downtime, manpower, and unnecessary costs.

The Tools We Use

Our diamond core drills are powered by electric, air, hydraulic, and hy-cycle electrical means. These lightweight and versatile instruments can operate in both vertical and horizontal directions, catering to a wide range of applications. The diamond cutting face enhances precision, enabling finer cuts with exact measurements.

Clean, Dust-Free Workspace

Our commitment to excellence extends to maintaining a clean workspace. Water controls ensure that dust is kept at bay, creating a dust-free environment that enhances safety and productivity.

At Connacht Core Drilling & Wall Chasing, we've mastered the art of core drilling, making it the ultimate solution for creating openings and routing cables with precision, speed, and efficiency. Say goodbye to the days of laborious wiring concealment and hello to a future where your projects are completed seamlessly, on time, and within budget.

Wall Chasing

At Connacht Core Drilling & Wall Chasing, we specialise in Wall Chasing, a crucial process for creating channels in concrete walls. These neat channels are vital for various construction, plumbing, and electrical installations, enabling the seamless placement of conduits, pipes, trunking, and more.

What is Wall and Floor Chasing?

Wall Chasing involves using abrasive or diamond blades to cut precise channels into various surfaces. This method ensures that conduits and pipes fit perfectly, maintaining the structural integrity of the wall.

Applications and Precision

Our professional workforce, armed with highly efficient tools, excels in providing precise wall chasing services. We customise each cut to the required widths and depths, accommodating all types of brickwork, blockwork, plastered and rendered surfaces, concrete, and screeds.

Versatile Solutions

Wall chasing services are indispensable for building contractors, electricians, and plumbers. We use hand-held electric grinders with diamond blades to cut two slots with utmost precision, followed by the removal of concrete using hammer drills or small breakers. The results are channels that meet precise width and depth requirements, perfect for various commercial, retail, and industrial applications, including factories, shops, offices, hotels, and more.

Minimising Disruption to Your Business

We understand that minimising disruption to your business is crucial. That's why we offer dust control facilities, helping us maintain a clean workspace and reducing disruption during the wall and floor chasing process. This means you can continue your operations with minimal interruption while we create precise, neat channels in concrete or masonry structures.
