About Us
Founded in 1981 by Linda Davis, Davis Quality Engineering began in Santa Fe Springs, California. After a brief partnership, Linda and Jim Davis incorporated as Davis Quality Engineering, Inc., and in 1987, relocated to an expanded facility in Brea, California, renaming it Davis Laboratories, Inc. The company has since grown its NDT and Radiography services, serving clients across California, Nevada, and parts of Utah and Arizona.
Our Services
Davis Laboratories offers comprehensive Nondestructive Testing services both in-house and in the field. Methods currently employed are :
Concrete X-Ray
Evaluation of concrete and masonry (walls and decks) to locate rebar, conduit and tension cables prior to core drilling or saw cutting. Concrete thicknesses of up to 18″ can be routinely handled, with thicker sections possible under certain circumstances.
Concrete Penetrating Radar
Fast and reliable way of mapping out metallic inclusions in walls and slabs up to 18” thick, also possible to detect energized 50/60 hertz electrical conduit.
Concrete Coring and Cutting
We are here to provide you with the best concrete cutters and core drillers in the industry. Combining our nondestructive testing prior to coring/cutting services allows you to save time and money by scheduling with our company to complete your work.
Radiography Inspection
In-house and field portable x-ray and gamma ray service (including Cobalt 60 for thicker materials).
Magnetic Particle
In-house and field using dry powder, wet fluorescent and contrast methods employing horizontal bench, prod & coil and yoke equipment.
