Drilling in
Surrey, BC.
Family-run soil & environmental drilling — we bring the rig to Surrey. The owners quote it and drill it, and they answer the phone.

We know the ground in Surrey
Surrey runs from deltaic silts and sands in the low-lying south and Cloverdale — soft, saturated ground where liquefaction and settlement drive the design — up to firmer uplands in the north. Deep, undisturbed sampling and accurate groundwater readings matter here more than almost anywhere in the region.
We bring the rig into Surrey regularly for environmental and geotechnical work, and we know the delta ground: where you'll need casing, where the water table sits, and how to log it so it holds up in the report.
