What We Do
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD)
Both traditional HDD and HDD Rock Drilling Services
HDD is a trench-less method used to install underground infrastructure without disturbing the surface above. It involves drilling a bore path beneath the ground horizontally, allowing for the installation of utilities, such as pipelines, cables, or conduits, with minimal disruption to the environment. HDD utilizes specialized equipment to navigate beneath obstacles like roads, rivers, and buildings, making it a versatile and efficient technique for various construction projects.

HydroVacuum Excavation
HydroVacuum Excavation is a non-destructive digging method that uses pressurized water and a vacuum system to remove soil, exposing underground utilities or structures without causing damage. It involves injecting high-pressure water into the ground to loosen soil, which is then simultaneously removed by a powerful vacuum, allowing for precise excavation. This technique is preferred for its accuracy, safety, and minimal environmental impact in sensitive areas where traditional digging methods may pose risks.
-
We use a pressurized water and a vacuum system to safely remove soil and expose underground utilities or structures.
-
High-pressure water loosens the soil while a vacuum removes it, allowing for precise and non-destructive excavation.
-
Accurate and safe with minimal environmental impact, especially in areas where traditional digging might pose risks to existing infrastructure.
