POST HOLES & TREE HOLE DIGGING - DRILLING |
|
To put it mildly, Canyon Lake is a 'Bear' of an area in which to have to drill or dig post holes! We have drilled holes in many areas off fm 306 between New Braunfels and Canyon Lake, and the majority wear down our entire set of carbide tipped rock teeth in just one day. Normally the rock teeth last months. After post hole digging all across the Texas hill country near Canyon Lake, the earth is as varied as can be, and all of it is very hard and rocky. In fact, post hole drilling from one hole to the next, just a few feet away can be so different that it takes 5 minutes for one hole and 30 minutes for the next. But overall, the average for post hole digging and drilling in Canyon Lake in slower earth characteristics is about 2 to 4 holes per hour, and the average for faster earth characteristics is about 5 or 6 holes per hour. Depth of the hole plays a factor too. The deeper the hole, the longer it takes to drill. Planter hole digging near Canyon Lake is even more difficult in that it requires multiple hoes to be dug to plant a tree. Drilling post holes in rock is our specialty. when you can only dig down so far using a rock bar or other hand held digger, call us! We offer fast reliable and professional service. We have the most up to date technology to complete your post hole digging needs fast. From t-posts to trees, we have auger sizes to get the job done for you. When digging for post holes near Canyon Lake, the reason we do not use a jackhammer is that the jackhammer creates messy holes that are not well defined and thus it can be difficult to install the fence posts. Also the post holes and planter holes in Canyon Lake end up taking a lot more concrete because of the size and shape of the opening. In the hill country near Canyon Lake, we generally encounter hard packed caliche, dirt mixed with caliche, rock and dirt, and caliche and dirt. Our post hole drilling and digging augers can handle any combination of these types of earth. Roots are a little bit more difficult because the augers are specially designed for drilling rock and hard packed dirt, and are not as efficient with tree roots. Our system for post hole drilling and
planter hole digging in Canyon Lake is driven by the powerful twin opposing
hydraulic cylinders of the Belltec. They also allow us to apply the
entire weight of the tractor and rig directly to the auger in the form of
down pressure. Our rig weighs about 11,000 lbs. So, a lot of
weight is behind the auger and it literally breaks, crushes, grinds, and
demolishes rock and other impediments. Our post hole drilling / digging rig is
the most effective hole digging rig that exists unless you are willing to
pay the $1500 to $2000 per day price tag for a power company drilling rig.
