Trenchless technology enabling Horizontal Drilling underground, with the ability to steer to avoid obstacles in the ground.
EPS provide underground utility installation that is fast, efficient and environmentally friendly. Our streamlined process require minimal space which avoids unnecessary disruption and inconvenience.
There is no need for extensive surface cutting or digging long trenches. ‘No-dig’ techniques are very adaptable to various soil conditions and protected locations.
This technique provides accurate utility installation, which also protects wildlife and any ecologically sensitive locations. It is an incredibly cost-effective method of replacing old utility systems or installing new utilities.
At Moling Solutions (EPS Trenchless Installations), we focus on providing trenchless methods for the installation, repair, and replacement of various utilities, such as water mains, gas lines, communication ducts, electrical cables, and more.
With more than 30 years of experience in the industry, our expert and customer-oriented team is dedicated to providing efficient and dependable services for all your utility requirements.
Our skilled engineers have vast experience in installing and maintaining utilities of all types, sizes, and materials. From water and gas lines to fibre optic cables, we've successfully laid miles of utility pipelines with minimal disruption to properties and landscapes, using advanced trenchless methods.
Our Services Include:
Impact Moling
Impact Moling is a trenchless method used to install pipes, cables, and ducts underground without the need for continuous trench digging. Instead, pits are dug at intervals, and a pneumatic mole is lowered into the first pit. The mole then tunnels through the soil to the destination pit, creating a narrow borehole large enough for the utility to be pulled through. The mole, a steel cylinder powered by compressed air, hammers through the ground, significantly reducing installation time, surface disruption, and costs.
Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD)
Directional Drilling is a method used to install utilities like water pipes, electric cables, and gas lines underground, reaching distances of up to 250 meters. Advanced equipment allows the drilling to navigate around obstacles or go deeper underground, eliminating the need for lengthy, disruptive trenches. This technique creates precise, clean boreholes through which utilities can be pulled, making the process quick, cost-efficient, and environmentally friendly, with minimal impact on the surface.
Our skilled engineers have vast experience in installing and maintaining a wide range of utilities, including water and gas lines, as well as fibre optic cables. We’ve successfully installed miles of utility pipelines and systems, using advanced trenchless methods to minimise disruption to properties and landscapes.
