Subsurface Drilling
We maintain a serviced fleet of limited access drilling equipment.
Many modern activities and practices have an impact upon the environment that is not immediately visible. Contaminants in the air and water are sometimes more readily apparent, while soil contamination may be harder to detect. Unfortunately, soil contamination can put both the environment and human health at risk. As a result, organizations turn to soil drilling and sampling in order to understand the full impact of their operations and make informed decisions about risk management.
Drilling and sampling projects allow for the acquisition of samples that reasonably represent subsurface conditions on a property or the site of a project in development. The type and frequency of sampling will depend on the purpose of the investigation as well as the type of material that turns up.

Soil Sampling and Drilling
we assist in sampling and the design of remediation plans according to your needs.
Generally speaking, soil sampling will be conducted during a Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessment and is performed to ascertain whether subsurface contamination is present and if it might potentially spread to neighbouring properties.
Samples will be collected, handled, stored, and analyzed according to local standards.
Soil sampling may include:
- Soil sampling and analysis
- Soil vapour investigation
- Waste sampling and analysis (includes sludge, sediment, ash, and fly ash)
- Supporting environmental site assessment
- Drilling
- Assistance in developing remediation plans and sampling/monitoring during the remediation process
We offer a free no obligation consultation on our projects.
Our drilling services are available for all your subsurface needs.
Our team of specialists are focused entirely on providing the most effective, safest, and highest quality service to our clients. Each project is unique, requiring an individualized approach. We carefully assess the particulars of the project to provide you with a solution that meets your specific needs. Whatever the size or scope of your project, we are here to assist you.
