What Sets KR Engineering Apart?
Here are some key reasons why Edmonton contractors, architects, and project managers choose KR Engineering for their concrete scanning needs:
- Advanced GPR Technology

Their scanning team is trained not only in operating GPR equipment but also in interpreting the results correctly. A GPR device is only as good as the person reading it, and KR Engineering’s team ensures that your scans are understood and communicated effectively.
- Detailed Reporting
After scanning, you receive a comprehensive report that includes high-resolution images, marked-up site photos, and clear indications of safe and unsafe zones. This documentation is invaluable for both project planning and regulatory compliance.
