Services
Diamond Drilling
Diamond Drilling creates precise holes in concrete, blockwork, or tarmac using advanced rigs. Our service accommodates diameters from 6mm to 800mm, with stitch drilling for larger openings. Low-vibration techniques ensure minimal disruption, while wet or dry cutting meets client specifications. Operatives hold confined space qualifications for safety and efficiency.
Floor Sawing
Floor Sawing provides clean, precise cuts in concrete or asphalt up to 500mm deep. Our diesel or electric-powered saws operate with minimal fumes, supported by skilled operatives. Portable water and power supplies enable self-sufficient operations, ensuring accurate results for roads, runways, or floor slabs.
Robotic Demolition
Robotic Demolition uses Husqvarna DXR machines for confined spaces. Remote-controlled operation eliminates health and safety risks, with attachments for breaking, crushing, and lifting. The fumeless, quiet process suits internal and external projects, including stair climbing and doorway access.
Wire Sawing
Wire Sawing dismantles reinforced concrete structures like bridges using diamond wire. Sections are cut to specification with remote-controlled equipment, enabling flush cuts and dust-free operations. This method suits complex or large-scale demolition projects with precision requirements.
Fire Stopping
Fire Stopping installs passive fire protection measures to enhance building safety. Our certified operatives ensure compliance with regulations, using tested materials to seal gaps and prevent fire spread in commercial and industrial settings.
