Cable percussion drilling and water well drilling
Cable percussion drilling and water well drilling
Cable percussion is the most commonly used technique for drilling and sampling soils where good-quality undisturbed samples are required. Cable percussion drilling can also be used to reach an underground water source.
Low headroom cable percussion rig
Low headroom cable percussion rig
The rig is designed to work efficiently in restricted access areas and confined spaces where traditional cable percussion drilling rigs cannot operate.
Window sampling
Window sampling
Window sampling helps engineers to understand soil composition, structure and contamination levels, making it indispensable for site investigations and environmental assessments.
Dynamic probing
Dynamic probing
We offer this technique, which involves driving a steel cone into the ground using a sliding hammer to measure the ground’s penetration rate. These results can be correlated with standard penetration tests (SPT).
Concrete coring
Concrete coring
We provide a nationwide concrete coring service, which is an efficient drilling technique that is used to extract cylindrical samples from concrete structures.
Our lead drillers and assistants have considerable experience of drilling in all types of terrain to deliver safe and high-quality drilling while providing a quick and professional service within required deadlines.
