Mistakes happen in construction<\/strong>\u2014especially when things are moving fast. One of the most common (and costly) oversights is failing to install the necessary sleeves, conduits, or openings before concrete is poured.<\/span> <\/em>When that happens, core drilling<\/strong> becomes the only solution to correct the issue without compromising the integrity of the structure.<\/p>\n For engineers, project managers, and site supervisors, this can mean unexpected delays, added costs, and coordination challenges. But how do you know if you need a core driller? And what mistakes most often lead to this situation?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n In this guide, we\u2019ll explore the common reasons why core drilling is needed, highlight real-world mistakes that create the need for it, and help you determine when hiring a professional core drilling company is the best move for your project.<\/p>\n

The general contractor had two options:<\/p>\n The project team called in Texas ROC Contracting<\/strong>, who assessed the situation and performed precise core drilling<\/strong> to create the necessary penetrations without compromising the structural integrity<\/strong> of the slab. The team used specialized wet core drilling techniques to minimize dust and prevent overheating, completing the work within a single day<\/strong> to keep the project on schedule.<\/p>\n If the project team had conducted a pre-pour sleeve verification walkthrough<\/strong>, this mistake could have been caught and corrected before the concrete was poured.<\/strong> By integrating BIM software<\/strong> and on-site inspections<\/strong>, they could have ensured all necessary openings were accounted for, preventing the need for reactive core drilling.<\/p>\n \u2705 Always double-check sleeve placements before pouring concrete<\/strong> [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” theme_builder_area=”post_content” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Mistakes happen, and core drilling is often the best solution when they do. However, by implementing these strategies\u2014better planning, coordination, and proactive problem-solving\u2014engineers and contractors can significantly reduce the need for reactive drilling, saving time and money.<\/p>\n For those moments when core drilling is unavoidable, Texas ROC Contracting<\/strong> is here to provide precise, professional, and efficient solutions.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” locked=”off” collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”5138c454-be54-4233-bd3b-f8e6a8747976″ custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16.1″ _module_preset=”73121f80-a3ef-4484-8763-c3f18e3c56d2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_heading title=”Don\u2019t Let One Small Oversight Turn Into a Big Problem\u2014Call Texas ROC Contracting Today!” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”ba4a6336-701f-47b8-bf5c-09da0ce28016″ title_level=”h3″ title_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” title_text_color=”#111111″ title_font_size=”32px” title_line_height=”1.3em” custom_margin=”||10px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ title_font_size_tablet=”22px” title_font_size_phone=”17px” title_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_heading][et_pb_button button_text=”Contact Us Today” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”1bffc0fc-42a0-49d1-bd9a-ae3ade2d7206″ custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”14px” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” button_bg_color=”#002768″ button_border_width=”0px” button_border_radius=”100px” button_font=”IBM Plex Sans|700|||||||” custom_padding=”12px|24px|12px|24px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover_enabled=”off|desktop” custom_padding__hover=”|28px||20px|true|false” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16.1″ _module_preset=”73121f80-a3ef-4484-8763-c3f18e3c56d2″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_text quote_border_color=”#be0a2f” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”2c55a9c4-feed-423b-9edb-ae0b5b365cac” text_font=”IBM Plex Sans|IBM Plex Sans_weight|||||||” text_text_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.64)” text_font_size=”16px” text_line_height=”1.75em” link_font=”|IBM Plex Sans_weight|||||||” link_text_color=”#002768″ quote_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” quote_text_color=”#111111″ header_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” header_text_color=”#111111″ header_font_size=”72px” header_line_height=”1.15em” header_2_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#111111″ header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” header_3_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” header_3_text_color=”#111111″ header_3_font_size=”32px” header_3_line_height=”1.3em” header_4_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” header_4_text_color=”#111111″ header_4_font_size=”24px” header_4_line_height=”1.4em” header_5_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” header_5_text_color=”#111111″ header_5_font_size=”18px” header_5_line_height=”1.4em” header_6_font=”IBM Plex Sans Condensed|IBM Plex Sans Condensed_weight|||||||” header_6_text_color=”#111111″ header_6_line_height=”1.5em” custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ text_font_size_tablet=”15px” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_font_size_tablet=”40px” header_font_size_phone=”24px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_2_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_2_font_size_phone=”20px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_font_size_tablet=”22px” header_3_font_size_phone=”17px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_4_font_size_tablet=”18px” header_4_font_size_phone=”15px” header_4_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” header_5_font_size_tablet=”15px” header_5_font_size_phone=”14px” header_5_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” header_6_font_size_tablet=”13px” header_6_font_size_phone=”13px” header_6_font_size_last_edited=”on|desktop” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Mistakes happen, but delays and costly fixes don\u2019t have to.
