CAPABILITIES
Services That Set Us Apart
From pilot bore to pullback, Drill Tech delivers turnkey trenchless installation — and the conventional methods to back it up when the job calls for them.
01
Horizontal Directional Drilling
Trenchless installation of utilities under roads, rail, rivers, and developed areas — typical bores of 600 to 1,800 ft, with proven installs beyond 5,000 ft. Fixed price per linear foot.
02
Rock Boring
Our signature capability. Specialized rock motors, openers, and rebuilt high-thrust rigs that hold line and grade through solid granite up to 40,000 psi.
03
River & Wetland Crossings
Licensed Maryland marine contractor for crossings in protected waterways and sensitive habitats — including multi-thousand-foot bores deep beneath active rivers.
04
Jack & Bore / Auger Boring
Cased crossings under highways and railroads with American Augers boring machines — for owners and specs that require steel casing on line and grade.
05
Open Cut
Conventional trenching and utility installation where ground conditions and permits make it the right call — one crew, one accountable contractor.
06
Turnkey Project Support
Hydro-excavation and potholing, pipe fusion, drilling fluid management, and guidance engineering — everything required to take a crossing from design to commissioning.
