Core service

Horizontal Directional Drilling

State-of-the-art guidance systems and drill rigs handle anything from a 19mm water service under a lawn to a 500mm casing under a highway or waterway — distances up to 300m. The bore is steered in a shallow arc between two small pits, so roads, driveways and waterways stay intact.

Trenchless Pipe Bursting

Replace and upsize existing lines in place — the old pipe is broken outward as the new one is pulled through, with no open trench along the run.

HDPE Pipe Fusing

Certified technicians fuse monolithic high-density polyethylene on site — a continuous, jointless line with no buried fittings to fail.

Excavation

Entry and exit pits, tie-ins and supporting site work handled by experienced operators, so the crossing is ready to bore and ready to connect.

Fitting & Commissioning

Pipe fitting, tie-ins and commissioning of new utilities — the installed line is connected, tested and handed over in service.

How trenchless works

We go under, not through.

A drill rig steers a bore in a shallow arc between two small pits — pulling your pipe underneath roads, rivers and yards without tearing them open.

Cross-section of a horizontal directional drilling crossing A drill rig at an entry pit steers a bore in a shallow arc roughly six metres beneath a road and a river, out to an exit pit about 120 metres away, where the product pipe is attached and pulled back through the reamed hole.

01Pilot bore

Steer the arc

A tracked head is pushed from the entry and steered along a shallow curve, tracked to the surface the whole way.

02Ream

Open the hole

A reamer is pulled back through, enlarging the bore to comfortably clear the diameter of your pipe.

03Pullback

Pull the pipe

Your pipe is fixed at the exit and drawn back through the reamed hole in one continuous length.
