Use this Diamond Driller contract with confidence
Practical checks to help an employer choose the right starting point and prepare the information the document needs.
When to use this contract
Deliver precisely positioned cores and openings, coordinate controlled water, slurry and work areas, and deliver undamaged surrounding structure and services.
Workplace context: Construction sites, project offices, client sites and approved work locations.
What makes this role different
Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering service and reinforcement detection. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering water and electrical controls. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering silica and slurry. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering rig anchoring and core handling. Follow the Employer's documented arrangements covering site rules.
Not a fit / obtain specialist advice
Recheck the role or obtain appropriate advice if the work would exceed these maintained authority boundaries: The driller may operate within cleared locations and specified dimensions. Tendon or reinforcement cutting, relocation, changed diameter and uncertain services require structural or site approval. Obtain approval before committing expenditure, changing contractual commitments or making regulated or staffing decisions outside the assigned role.
What to prepare before you issue it
the core sizes, orientations, structures and rigs covered
the sites, travel, shutdown and out-of-hours work expected
the drilling, rigging, access and electrical competence required
the scanning, structural-clearance and permit process
the rigs, bits, anchors, PPE and slurry equipment provided
the authority for relocation, diameter and reinforcement changes
Day-to-day operating brief
What Diamond Driller work looks like in practice
A diamond driller forms precise cores and cuts in concrete or masonry using water-cooled specialist equipment. The contract should cover scanning, structural clearance, water and slurry management, electrical safety and securing cores or cut sections.
Responsibilities reflected in the contract
Set out core locations and dimensions from approved information.
Verify scan, service, tendon and permit clearance before drilling.
Anchor and operate diamond-drilling rigs within equipment competence.
Control water, slurry, electricity, noise and work-area access.
Secure and recover cores according to orientation, weight and location.
Record depth, obstruction, reinforcement, completion and any changed condition.
A realistic working scenario
A core location is clear on the drawing but scanning suggests a tendon. The driller stops, marks the finding and seeks structural confirmation rather than reducing diameter or moving the hole without approval.
Outputs to agree
precisely positioned cores and openings
controlled water, slurry and work areas
undamaged surrounding structure and services
Records and evidence
Core schedule and set-out.
Scan and permit evidence.
Rig, electrical and water check.
Depth, obstruction and completion record.
Work records.

Reporting relationship
Typically reports to Line Manager or Department Manager. Confirm the employer's actual reporting structure in the builder.
Authority and escalation
The driller may operate within cleared locations and specified dimensions. Tendon or reinforcement cutting, relocation, changed diameter and uncertain services require structural or site approval.
Obtain approval before committing expenditure, changing contractual commitments or making regulated or staffing decisions outside the assigned role.

Timeline, reminders and audit
Each workflow keeps the case history, source context, reminders, documents and completion summary together.
Not without checking the design and receiving an authorised revised location that preserves structure, clearances and support.
How should a falling core be controlled?
The drilling method should include retention, exclusion and recovery appropriate to the orientation and weight before work starts.
Can a Diamond Driller reduce core diameter onsite?
Not without design and interface review followed by an authorised revised instruction; a smaller opening may still fail the installation requirement.
Who approves drilling through a post-tensioned area?
The responsible structural authority must assess tendon information and scan findings and issue specific clearance before any core work begins.
How should overhead cores be retained?
The method should define weight, restraint, exclusion, final breakthrough, lowering and recovery before drilling starts, using equipment suited to the load.
May the rig be fixed with a different anchor?
Only where the rig manufacturer, substrate and approved setup allow it and the employee is trained for that anchoring arrangement.
What happens when water containment fails?
Stop drilling, protect electrical and occupied areas, restore containment and report any escape or damage before restarting.
What should a completed core record contain?
Identify location, diameter, depth, angle, scan and permit evidence, rig setup, obstructions, services or reinforcement, core recovery and completion status.
