Locating Post Tension Cables - Lake George, NY

National Tenant Improvement, Inc. was working on a project in a Coach outlet store that was being renovated in Lake George, NY. Part of the renovation required relocating bathrooms, which also meant installing new plumbing lines. Before drilling through the floor they had to locate post tension cables to ensure not hitting them. The project manager searched for companies that would be able to perform the job, and his search found Ground Penetrating Radar Systems, LLC. to be one of the only companies in the Upstate, NY area that could perform the work.

Jim Bell of the Upstate, NY office, which focuses on the Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Ithaca, Binghamton and Albany markets mobilized to the site and was able to quickly detect and lay out the cables running through the areas that the drilling would occur. Jim and GPR were able to complete this project in real time and with none of the radiation concerns that come with using x-ray to locate tensioned cables or rebar.
