Founded in 1974, A-Core Concrete Cutting( A-Core) began with humble roots, operating from the back of a yellow station wagon known as‘ Old Yeller’. CEO, Jake Rodgers, shares some highlights of the company’ s history:“ A-Core was created by my grandparents here in Murray, Utah, as a way to support the family.

Initially, this growth was entirely organic. Then, over the last decade, we have made several strategic acquisitions to complement our existing operations. This phase commenced with the expansion into New Mexico in 2015.
“ Our core business remains concrete cutting, including wall sawing, flat sawing,
core drilling, wire sawing, and curb sawing. Alongside these services, we also have a specialized demolition division. Within this sector, we do everything from a full demolition of a bridge to creating a trench within a building. Additionally, we have a highway division that builds and reconstructs highways; this includes sawing and sealing as well as highway grinding and grooving, our A-Core imaging division utilizes groundpenetrating radar and concrete x-ray. In Utah, we also have a concrete pouring operation which we started five years ago.”
