Welcome :-)

Hi There! We'd like to introduce ourselves.

Whether you're new to directional drilling / boring or seasoned using this approach for service utility installations, we're here in Fort Worth, Texas to help.

One of the most common questions I get is, "We've never done this before." That's fine. We have. We'll help you through the project and make sure you and your client are successful.

Some of the utilities we install for contractors are: Water, gas, communications, electrical, conduit, irrigation... (Plumbers, electricians, irrigators, network I.T. folks...)

The best way to get a quote is either to call, or send us a text.

Ideally, we would have a Google satellite image with the proposed bore path/excavation path "red-lined" on the image. Or the physical address with a description of the bore path, i.e. "From mailbox to left of front door..."

So, what are you waiting for? You've got nothing to lose.

Send me a text, or give me a call.

Thanks,

Jeff Longspaugh - Get It Dug

Directional Drilling & Boring

Directional drilling offers numerous advantages for utility installations, including minimal surface disruption, reduced environmental impact, and significant cost savings. This advanced technique allows for precise underground utility placement beneath sensitive areas like roads, rivers, and urban landscapes without extensive excavation.

Precision Hand-Digging Service

Suitable for clear utility mapping: In areas with well-documented underground utilities, hand-digging can be a viable option for small-scale projects, and can provide un-matched precision when creating access holes for drilling equipment.

Underground Line Location/Tracing (GPR-S)

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) offers several key benefits for subsurface imaging and detection, like:

- Non-destructive testing: GPR scans below the surface without disturbing the site, preserving existing structures and reducing risks associated with exploratory activities

- Accurate subsurface mapping: GPR provides detailed maps of underground utilities, waterlines, voids, and other structures, reducing guesswork in site planning.

Vacuum Excavation

Vacuum excavation offers numerous benefits for construction and utility projects:

Minimizes damage to underground utilities: The non-invasive technique significantly reduces the risk of damaging existing infrastructure
Enhances safety: By reducing the risk of utility strikes and minimizing heavy machinery on-site, it creates a safer work environment
Environmentally friendly: It causes less disruption to topsoil, reduces dust emissions, and allows for cleaner work sites

Conduit Installation & Repair

Conduit installation involves strategically placing protective tubes or channels to route and safeguard electrical wiring, cables, and other utilities through walls, ceilings, floors, and underground areas.

Repair typically focuses on:

Replacing damaged sections
Addressing bends or compressions
Ensuring continued protection of internal wiring

Jackhammer & Concrete Removal

Jackhammering and concrete removal offer several key benefits in construction and renovation projects:

Increased efficiency: Jackhammers significantly speed up demolition work, reducing project duration and labor costs compared to manual methods.
Precision and control: Modern jackhammers allow for focused demolition in specific areas, minimizing collateral damage.
Versatility: Jackhammers can handle various tasks like concrete demolition, asphalt removal, and trenching
Structural repairs & upgrades

Foundation Tunneling Service

Foundation tunneling service offers several key benefits for both residential and commercial properties:

Minimal disruption: It allows repairs without disturbing interior spaces, preserving flooring and finishes
Accessibility: Tunneling provides access to otherwise hard-to-reach areas under the foundation for comprehensive repairs.
Cost-effective: While initially labor-intensive, it often proves more economical by avoiding interior demolition and restoration costs.
Versatility: Suitable for various tasks including plumbing repairs, structural support installation, and flood protection measures.
Continuous occupancy: Residents or businesses can typically remain on-site during repairs, minimizing inconvenience.
Plumbing access: Tunneling allows for easy detection and repair of underground plumbing issues.
