Our subsurface exploration equipment includes a wide variety of drill rigs, associated support vehicles, and experienced, qualified drilling personnel. All drilling personnel and equipment work directly out of our Chesapeake, Virginia location. We perform auger borings, water borings, swamp borings, standard penetration testing, vane shear testing, static cone penetrometer testing, undisturbed sampling, core drilling, piezometer installation, monitor well installation, slope indicator installation, and heave/settlement point installation.
In the local Tidewater area, drill rigs can normally be provided within a few days of the request. However, in emergencies, we have provided one or more drill rigs on site and in operation within a few hours of being requested.
