Well Drilling
Our well drilling division operates ten large rotary drill units and specialized equipment to construct water wells for residential, municipal, and industrial clients. We utilize advanced drilling techniques to ensure optimal water quality and system efficiency while complying with environmental regulations. Our expertise includes aquifer testing and installation of water treatment systems.
Dewatering Systems
We design and install dewatering systems for construction sites, including wells and pumping systems to lower groundwater tables. Our engineers handle projects from simple excavations to complex high-rise developments, providing both temporary and permanent solutions with depths exceeding 80 feet while maintaining system maintenance services.
Foundation Drilling
Our foundation drilling division uses derrick digger rigs and air rotary equipment to create shafts for light poles, communication towers, and building foundations. We drill holes up to 5 feet in diameter and 100 feet deep in rock formations, supporting structural integrity for commercial and infrastructure projects across the Carolinas.
Horizontal Directional Drilling
Using a Ditch Witch JT1220 rig, we install underground utilities up to 500 feet with minimal surface disruption. This method suits sewer lines, water mains, and environmental remediation projects under roads and waterways, combining precision engineering with environmental protection expertise.
Pump Installation
We install and service pumping systems for water distribution, wastewater treatment, and industrial applications. Our technicians handle complete systems including storage tanks, filtration units, and control mechanisms, providing both standalone installations and integrated support for construction and environmental projects.
