Missile Boring in Augusta: what gets installed
Missile boring (pneumatic piercing) drives a steel mole through the soil for short, straight, shallow runs under a driveway or sidewalk: the quickest way to sleeve a lawn or a walk.
Augusta sits on the Fall Line: Piedmont rock on the hill, Coastal Plain sand toward the river, and the Savannah River, the canal and Fort Eisenhower as the crossings that matter. GDOT District 2 and Augusta Utilities permit most of the work.
How a bore in Augusta is done
A bore in Augusta is planned backward from the product: the bend the pipe can take, the cover the permit requires under the road or the water, and the ground along the path set the entry angle and the length. One or more reaming passes open the pilot hole; the pipe or conduit comes back on the last pass behind a swivel so it does not twist.
Hiring a missile boring contractor in Augusta
A good boring contractor in Augusta returns the call, walks the site, writes a firm number, and leaves the pits so you cannot find them a week later. That is the standard Davis Underground Solutions, Inc. works to across Georgia, with metro Atlanta as home range and the rest of the state a quoted drive away.
