The Basics of Piercing Drilling

What Is Piercing Drilling?

Piercing drilling is an approach to drilling holes for utility lines that only involves minimal excavation. It’s beneficial since there’s no need to destroy the surrounding landscape or disrupt nearby traffic. Plus, it’s a technique that gives contractors a way to install utility lines without having to worry about streams, buildings, paved parking lots, or other above-ground obstructions.

How Is It Done?

The piercing process we use at Complete Trenchless for services like trenchless pipe lining in Bellevue, WA involves the use of pneumatic tools. A compact hole is then created. Powered by compressor hoses, the piercing tool our trained technicians use will be sized to match the preferred diameter of the hole. There will be an entry pit and exit point so the piercing tool can be properly inserted and the hole can be effectively created. A piping conduit is also installed along the newly created hole.

Why Consider Piercing Drilling?

Piercing drilling is commonly used in situations involving last-mile pipe laying installations. It can also be useful for installations that will go from the street to a designated house. This is a drilling solution that can be used to install fiber, gas, and water lines. Electrical lines can be installed with this method as well.
