Concrete Scanning in Oxfordshire
Oxfordshire mixes some of the country's most sensitive heritage fabric with modern science campuses and fast-growing new-build estates. RebarScan provides non-destructive concrete scanning across the county so works on all of it, from a Grade II listed college building to a new car park frame in Bicester, can proceed without striking what is hidden inside.

Few counties pack as much structural variety into one area. Oxford's centre couples listed and historic buildings with early and post-war reinforced concrete frames, often heavily serviced after decades of M&E retrofit. Out at Harwell and Culham the building stock is industrial and scientific, with thick slabs and demanding tolerances. Around Didcot, Bicester and the A34 corridor the emphasis shifts to recent commercial and residential frames. Each of these calls for a clear picture of the concrete before anyone cuts into it.
Scanning gives that picture from the surface. The same survey that protects a fragile heritage element in the city also clears fixing points in a new distribution unit off the A34, because in every case the goal is the same: know what is inside before the drill goes in.

Frequently asked questions
- Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire for concrete scanning?
- Yes. We attend sites across the county, from Oxford city centre and the university estate to Didcot, Bicester, Banbury and the market towns. Coverage is focused on Oxfordshire so we can respond quickly across the area.
- Can you scan heritage and listed structures in Oxford?
- Yes. Non-destructive scanning suits listed and heritage fabric well because nothing is broken out to carry it out. It is widely used on Oxford's older buildings and early concrete frames during sensitive refurbishment and M&E retrofit.
- How quickly can you attend a site in Oxfordshire?
- Because our coverage is concentrated on Oxfordshire we can usually arrange attendance at short notice for drilling clearance work. Tell us the location and urgency and we will confirm the soonest available visit.
