Business

Mobile Dustless Coring Service

Offer on-site through-hole coring for homeowners and small contractors (mini-split linesets, dryer vents, sump pump discharges, hose bibs). Use a HEPA vac shroud for dust control, stock multiple diameters, and leverage the two-piece bit to swap sizes quickly. Flat-rate per hole plus material sleeves and sealing.


Weekend Core Kit Rentals

Creative

Perforated Breeze-Block Screen

Design a decorative privacy wall by coring precise patterns into standard concrete blocks or pavers. Use different core diameters to create a gradient of openings for light and airflow, then stack and mortar the blocks into a semi-transparent screen for patios or garden rooms.


Backlit Porthole Wall

Core clean circular openings in a masonry wall and insert frosted acrylic or glass tubes. Add LED strips or puck lights inside the cavities to create a row of glowing portholes for ambient outdoor lighting along pathways or terraces.


Planter Irrigation Manifold

Build oversized concrete planters, then core holes to route drip tubing or copper pipe through the walls and base. Integrate a hidden manifold so each planter has a neat inlet, overflow, and drain for automated watering and winterizing.


Outdoor Kitchen Utility Pass-Through

Core precise holes through a masonry countertop/backsplash and adjacent wall to route water, gas, and electrical conduits for a DIY grill station or sink. Use multiple diameters for supply, drain, and vent lines, finishing with escutcheons for a pro look.


Rain Chain Plinth

Cast a concrete pedestal and core a centered vertical channel to guide a rain chain or downspout extension. Add side cores near the base for drainage outlets and integrate decorative pebble or glass inlays in the top for a sculptural water feature.
