• Big pipe bores-we're talking up to 28" diameter
• Wireline locating tools that keep the project on point
• Mud reclaimers and smart drilling solutions

Whether you're boring under rivers or highways, navigating mountains, or dropping grade bores for power, water, sewer, or telecom-we do the cool, complex, high-stakes bores others avoid.

• Running badass rigs like Ditch Witch, Vermeer, American Auger
• Reading profiles like a boss and following through with high-precision bores
• Mastering TK, DCI, and magnetic locating tools
• Keeping the schedule tight, the worksite safe, and the client happy

Your Toolbox (aka What You Bring)

• 3+ years on HDD equipment or support gear (skid steers, vac trucks, crane trucks, etc.)
• Proven experience drilling in mixed soils & using the right mud mix
• Valid Class A CDL (tanker endorsement = bonus points)
• AT Drilling & walk-over locating know-how (grade bores = big win!)
