Pilot Tube Microtunnelling is a laser guided drilling method used in displaceable soils when line and grade needs to be precise such as for gravity sewer and drainage. Auger Thrust Boring is an unguided drilling method where generally a casing pipe is installed and the carrier pipe installed inside on brackets.
This is an ideal method beneath railways and where space permits. We are horizontal boring contractors specialising in the installation of underground utilities in Perth, Western Australia. We have a track record of completing projects to a high standard in difficult working conditions and strive to offer a high quality service that meets our customer's needs.

Pilot Tube Microtunnelling also known as Guided Auger Boring is the process of installing service pipes underground using a pipe jacking technique in combination with a laser guided theodolite which guides the pipe to the target shaft, this method is extremely precise with deviations from target less than +/- 20mm over 70 metres.
Auger Boring is a technique for the bored installation of a casing pipe, the product pipe is then installed within the casing pipe on brackets. Typically an unguided method of boring with limited steering capabilities, we have developed a method of Auger Boring to line and grade.
Auger boring is a popular option for installing utilities under railways, highways and buildings where settlement is a concern as the process retains the soil within the casing, which reduces the likelihood of ground settlement from excavation.One of the oldest trenchless technology methods, Unguided Auger Boring is the first method Leon learnt when starting his career 25 years ago.
