When it comes to evaluating the quality and condition of your concrete structures, STRUCTinspect UK's concrete core sampling service has you covered. Using advanced diamond coring equipment, we extract cylindrical concrete samples from any part of the structure, including walls, floors, columns, beams, or bridges. Our skilled technicians ensure the coring process is conducted safely and efficiently, causing minimal damage to the surrounding concrete.

These core samples are then sent to a UKAS-accredited laboratory for a range of tests to determine the concrete's strength, composition, density, permeability, carbonation, chloride content, and other properties. The tests can identify cracks, voids, defects, deterioration, or contamination in the concrete and assess its performance and durability under various environmental conditions.

​

We provide a comprehensive report detailing the test results, along with recommendations for any necessary remedial actions or improvements. This report helps you evaluate the structural integrity and safety of your concrete structures and ensures compliance with relevant standards and regulations. Our standard turnaround time for the report is within five working days, but we can expedite the service if needed.

Our concrete core sampling service is suitable for various applications, including:

✔ Quality control and assurance for new construction projects
✔ Investigation and diagnosis of existing concrete structures
✔ Evaluation and verification of concrete repairs or modifications
✔ Assessment and monitoring of concrete deterioration or damage
✔ Determination and comparison of design and actual concrete properties

Whether you need to test a single core or numerous samples, we offer a reliable and cost-effective solution. We look forward to assisting you.
