Concrete Scanning Services
Precise, Safe & Non destructive GPR testing
Know what's inside and below concrete with MPL
Locate Hazards in Concrete
MPL's concrete scanning services allow our partners to safely core or drill through walls, floors, and concrete slabs while avoiding damaging renovations and new construction projects. At MPL, our technicians utilize Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for quick and accurate locating to know exactly what is within and under concrete structures, such as walls, columns, ceiling or floors. If you're looking for concrete scanning companies, MPL is here to provide you with reliable and accurate services.
Not knowing what is inside concrete structures can lead to costly delays, mistakes & safety hazards on most job sites.
Many dangers can lurk within concrete structures, from rebar to water pipes, electrical conduits, and more. By using transmitted waves and their reflected signals, an MPL project manager can analyze the subsurface to detect embedded objects. If you're looking to mitigate risks and keep your entire job site safe from hidden dangers and unknowns, consider concrete scanning GPR, for your project.

Concrete Scanning FAQs
How do I know if I need a concrete scan?
If your project requires the sawing, cutting, coring, or drilling into or through any existing concrete during construction, you will need our concrete scanning services to ensure the work is safe.
How much does a concrete scan cost?
The cost of a scan varies based on the size of area to be scanned and the job site location.
Can it identify the difference between rebar, post tension cables, electrical conduits and other embedded materials?
While the scanning technology does not clarify what type of object is being found, we can identify scanned objects by looking at all available data to determine the type of reinforcing steel or electrical conduit present in the structure.
How precise is the scan?
At MPL, we pride ourselves on delivering accurate and reliable results for our clients. MPL's typical accuracy is +/- ¼" to the center of the object in concrete. We can also pinpoint the depth of every object we locate with an accuracy of +/- 10-15%.
Are there any health risks associated with the ground penetrating radar?
There are no health concerns with our project managers, any nearby workers, or the public in the building where the work is taking place.
