Blasting

Overview

Construction, contracting and building is hard work and sometimes requires rock clearing experts. When building highways, rocks must be dislodged. In many parts of the SouthEast, utilities such as water or gas pipelines require the excavation of rock which lie just below the surface of the ground. At McMahan Drilling & Blasting, Inc., we provide the expert blasting services to help your construction succeed.

Objectives

The object of nearly all blasting operations is to break the rock sufficiently so that it can be removed. While it is physically possible to break rock using equipment such as rock saws and jackhammers, such methods are impractical, time-consuming, and expensive when dealing with significant amounts of rock. McMahan Drilling & Blasting, Inc. provides expertise in controlled blasting operations that make construction demolition safe and timely, even in the closest quarters.
