Ground Penetrating Radar
Ground Penetrating Radar is the safest non-destructive way to survey an area before construction modifications begin. GPR eliminates the guesswork and determines if an area can be safely modified. This helps avoid costly mistakes, minimizes downtime, and costs for damaged equipment, and prevents accidents.

Diamond’s GPR Systems Can:
-
Scan walls, floors, and soil in many different conditions.
-
Successfully locate and accurately plot buried utilities including water lines, electrical lines, post-tension cables, gas lines, in-floor tubing, and voids in the concrete or soil.
-
Find anomalies in or around buildings.
-
Be deployed quickly and effectively in the most confined areas.
-
Be used in almost any setting due to the low impact of the scan signal which is 1% of a cell phone’s output.
