Horizontal Directional Drilling Adelaide

Trenchless underground installations with reduced surface disruption.

AVD Drills provides Horizontal Directional Drilling solutions for telecommunications and underground infrastructure installations where traditional trenching may cause unnecessary disruption.

Bores are planned around known underground services, ground conditions and site constraints, so conduit can be installed beneath roads, driveways and established surfaces while traffic, access and landscaping stay largely intact.
