Trenchless moling is a great way to install new pipes  and cables with the least amount of disruption. 

It’s ideal if you need new water pipes or EV charger cables installed at your property in Basingstoke.

Trenchless moling is more affordable than traditional ‘open cut’ trenching methods. That’s because it takes less time to complete and because it generates fewer spoils and uses fewer reinstatement materials. 

It involves using a ‘mole’, a steel cylinder, which works with pulsed compressed to hammer against the soil in front of it. This displaces the soil to create a bore for the new pipes to be pulled through.

If you need water pipe replacements or electrical wires for EV chargers, DJ Pipeworks offers this technique throughout Basingstoke and the surrounding locations. 

Here at DJ Pipeworks we typically use a 45mm Grundomat displacement mole, which is powered by a 7bar air compressor.

Small excavations are carried out at regulated depths of between 750mm-1300mm. The maximum distance between holes can be up to 15 metres per launch pit.

We also carry out leak detections for customers in a range of locations. Our experts can find even the most hidden leaks using the latest and best equipment. Whatever issues you’re having with your water system this winter, we can solve it as soon as possible.
