Common Questions & Answers
You have questions, we have answers!
How long does it take to start drilling a job?
We aim to keep our backlog no longer than 2 weeks, though depending on the time of year this can vary. Generally, the easier access the site is the faster we can mobilize. If we need to mobilize our barge to drill over water, that takes longer than a grassy field.
We also offer rush drilling services if needed.
How long does my report take to come?
We aim for a final report within 7 business days after completing drilling, but this can vary depending on the types of lab testing or analysis required. A simple house may take a few days, advanced lab testing requirements may take longer.
We can also do post-drilling updates if needed to help guide your decision making between drilling and a final report.
Communicate with your project manager your timeline needs and we will work with you to establish a drilling and reporting schedule to meet your needs.
What types of drill rigs do you have?
Our current fleet of drill rigs includes:
- Rubber tracked tight access rigs
- ATV articulating and non-articulating rigs
- A large truck rig
- Tank type (Morooka) rig
- Mobile barge (drilling over water)
- Trailerable rig on skids (allows for easy crane picks)
- Portable equipment
What is your service area?
Our home base is Jacksonville, Florida and the greater Jacksonville region is our primary work area, but we carry licenses in Georgia and South Carolina and regularly provide Geotechnical services throughout southeast Georgia and South Carolina and down through central Florida.
