Why Choose Domiark Construction for Core Drilling in Calgary

In today’s world of high-performance buildings and complex infrastructure, precision isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Nowhere is that more evident than in concrete coring, a specialized technique that allows builders to cut clean, accurate holes through concrete walls, slabs, and floors without compromising structural integrity. At Domiark Construction, we understand that precise coring is the backbone of efficient, safe, and modern construction projects across Canada. Here’s a breakdown of why it matters—and how we do it right.

What Is Concrete Coring?

Concrete coring is a drilling method used to remove cylindrical sections of concrete, typically with the help of advanced, diamond-tipped core drill bits. It’s an essential process in both new construction and renovation projects, allowing for the creation of clean, round openings in concrete surfaces.

These holes can range from just a few millimetres to several feet in diameter, depending on the specific project requirements.

Where Is Core Drilling Typically Used?

Our team at Domiark Construction handles concrete coring for a wide variety of applications, including:

Utility Access – Running plumbing, electrical, and HVAC lines through concrete.
Ductwork Installations – Cutting smooth, accurate paths for ventilation systems.
Anchor Placement – Creating secure anchor points for structural support or equipment.
Retrofitting and Renovation – Modifying existing structures without demolishing entire slabs or walls.

Each use case demands pinpoint accuracy to ensure that the hole does its job—without weakening the overall structure.

Why Precision Matters—Especially in Load-Bearing Structures

When it comes to drilling into load-bearing walls, beams, or slabs, there is zero room for error. A misplaced hole or uneven edge can cause cracks, weaken support systems, or create long-term structural vulnerabilities.

Precision coring ensures:

Load distribution remains unchanged
Structural safety is preserved
Follow-up installations (like pipes or rebar) fit seamlessly

At Domiark, we use state-of-the-art coring equipment and trained professionals to guarantee accuracy down to the millimetre.

Diamond Coring: Clean, Quiet, and Professional

One of the standout techniques we use is diamond core drilling—and it comes with several distinct advantages:

✅ Dust Control

Diamond drilling produces minimal dust, helping maintain a clean worksite and improving air quality for workers and occupants—especially crucial in active commercial or residential environments.

✅ Low Noise Levels

Compared to traditional hammer or impact drilling, diamond coring is significantly quieter. This makes it ideal for hospitals, schools, or occupied buildings where disruption must be kept to a minimum.

✅ Clean, Professional Finish

Diamond bits deliver smooth, burr-free holes, reducing the need for extra finishing and ensuring a precise fit for pipes, conduits, or anchors.
