Core drilling is a process used to create precise, circular openings in concrete structures. It is typically needed for installing utility lines, such as plumbing, electrical wiring, and HVAC systems, or for creating spaces for windows and doors. The drilling is done using a specialized machine with a diamond-tipped drill bit, which ensures clean and accurate cuts without damaging the surrounding concrete.

The process begins by marking the exact spot where the opening is needed. Then, the core drill is positioned, and steady pressure is applied to cut through the concrete. Water is often used during the drilling to keep the drill bit cool and minimize dust. Once the drilling is complete, the core (the solid piece of concrete removed) is extracted, leaving a smooth, professional-grade opening.
Core drilling is valued for its precision and efficiency, making it ideal for both residential and commercial projects. Whether for small-scale needs or large-scale construction, the technique ensures the integrity of the structure is maintained.
