There are three cutting-edge techniques for replacing water mains, one of which is trenching.
At ADI Leak Detection in Maidenhead, we specialize in the installation and replacement of long-distance water mains.
Our arsenal includes Horizontal Directional Drilling & Moling, each with their own set of advantages and disadvantages when it comes to pipe replacement or installation.
The choice of technique depends on various factors and challenges unique to each job.
We carefully consider the length of the pipe that needs replacing, the type of soil it is embedded in, the cost of remedial works, and the level of access to the site.
Introducing the revolutionary technique of Horizontal Directional Drilling, or HDD, the cutting-edge method to effortlessly install or replace underground water main pipes. Our team of skilled engineers begins by conducting a thorough assessment of the area utilizing state-of-the-art ground penetrating radar technology. With careful planning, we chart a path underground that skillfully avoids any obstacles.
Next, a small pilot hole is drilled, while our trusty sonde keeps a watchful eye on the progress of the drill head. Ensuring it remains on track, we guarantee it's heading in the right direction and at the perfect depth. Once the drill reaches its final destination, we attach the brand-new mains water pipe. But that's not all! We then work our magic in reverse, expertly pulling the new water pipe back through the pilot hole.
Prepare to be amazed, because this groundbreaking method is not only ideal for replacing water mains, but it's also perfect for those lengthy pipes exceeding 20 meters. And here's the cherry on top: it's a dream come true for already landscaped areas, as the process causes minimal disruption to the land. With our exceptional efficiency, we've even managed to fit up to an incredible 100 meters of new water pipe in just a single day! Get ready to embrace the future of underground water main installation with HDD.
Moling, my friend, is the absolute best way to lay down some fresh water pipes or replace those that are less than 25 meters long. Let me break it down for you. First, our talented engineers will dig an entry hole and an exit hole in the ground, going down to the perfect depth. Then, here's where the magic happens. We bring out this awesome machine called an impact mole, which is powered by a pneumatic drill. This bad boy will plow its way through the earth, creating a clear path from the entry to the exit hole.
But wait, there's more! Once our trusty mole reaches the exit hole, we attach the brand spanking new water mains pipe to it and gently pull it back through the pathway it just created. It's like watching a well-choreographed dance, I tell you. And here's the best part - because we only need to dig two holes for this process, your property can go back to looking exactly how it was before. In fact, most of the time, you won't even notice any work was done. No need to tear up your whole yard with trenches for these pipes, my friend. We've got a less disruptive method right here.
Trenching is a highly disruptive process for fitting a new water mains pipe. It involves using machinery to dig a long narrow trench the entire length of the new pipe that needs to be fitted. As you can imagine this can be a time consuming, messy process and the destruction left behind can be high. This process is best suited for areas that have yet to be landscaped, such as new build properties that are unfinished and are able to be out of action for a longer period of time.
