• Healthcare facilities – Making controlled holes for sensitive equipment mounting and laboratory setups

Custom Solutions for Detroit Area Projects

Detroit’s mix of historic and modern buildings can be tricky and requires well-rounded drilling expertise that works with both old and contemporary construction.

Historic buildings — We use low-vibration drilling methods and specialized anchoring systems that work with century-old concrete without causing structural stress or cosmetic damage to original masonry.

New construction —  Our laser-guided positioning and computer-controlled depth settings ensure anchor placements meet current engineering specifications and building code requirements.

Detroit-specific work includes:

• Infrastructure updates – Modernizing aging systems with strategic anchor placement
• Industrial upgrades – Installing new equipment in existing manufacturing spaces
• Green energy projects – Creating secure mounting points for solar and renewable systems
