Services Include:
Solid Stem & Hollow Stem Auger Drilling
With augers five feet in length and six inches in diameter, our technique is a fast and effective way to retrieve soil samples and install monitoring wells in areas where no sloughing is present. Our solid stem augers are ideal for geotechnical drilling in consolidated soils. Our hollow stem augers are ideal for unconsolidated soils, wet conditions and monitoring well installations.
Soil Sampling (Split Spoon and Shelby Tubes)
Our two-foot long by 1-1/8” diameter SPT split spoon samplers are ideal for geotechnical drilling, and our three-foot long by three-inch diameter split spoon sampler is frequently used in environmental drilling. We also offer Shelby tube samplers, which are two-feet long by three inches in diameter and made from stainless steel.
Grouting
We offer several different types of grouting units, some mounted on track units for hard to access locations and units mounted on trailers. All units are equipped with mixing hoppers and hose reels which makes them a far superior option than the typical tremie pipe and Moyno™ pump grouting units.
Monitoring Well Installations, Abandonment and Repair
We supply all types of consumables for monitoring well installations and decommissioning. We offer varied sizes of PVC pipe and an assortment of end and top caps. Whether flush-mount or stick-up wells, we have everything you need. With extensive well repair experience, we can easily remove and replace damaged flush-mount road boxes efficiently and cost effectively.
