Moling Silverstone

Trenchless technology provides an environmental and cost-effective solution to your underground project.

Impact Moling Silverstone

Impact Moling is a way of installing new pipes, cables and ducts under the ground without the need to dig continuous trenches. Instead, pits are dug at intervals in the ground and the mole is lowered inside.

The mole then tunnels through the earth, from the first pit through to the destination pit leaving a clear narrow tunnel large enough for the required utility to be pulled through. 

The mole in reality is a steel pneumatic cylinder, with compressed air that hammers through the soil creating a bore hole for the new pipe to be laid. This massively reduces installation time, disturbance to the surface and the cost.

Water mains replacement

If you need to replace a watermains at your property, save time and money by taking advantage of trenchless technology to install your new Watermains pipe. 

Our state-of-the-art Moling equipment will bore a new and accurate channel for a new water pipe work to be installed, without the need to dig up large areas of gardens and driveways.

This means the new watermain pipe can be installed efficiently with minimal disruption to you and your property.  

Replacing a Watermains begins at the stop tap located at the boundary of your property and continues up to the connection inside your house.

Replacing the entire length of the connection pipe provides a single water supply replacement that is seamless. Therefore, it is far less prone to splits, cracks and leaks and has no risk of lead contamination.
