Remuera-based Leak Solutions uses directional drilling for efficient underground utility installation with minimal disruption
Installing new utilities doesn’t have to mean tearing up driveways or causing unnecessary disruptions. Leak Solutions specialises in directional drilling, a trenchless method that efficiently installs water lines, electrical conduits, and fibre optic cables while preserving your property. This precise approach eliminates the need for large holes, keeping driveways, gardens, and landscapes intact.
With advanced guided drilling technology, we carefully plan and execute each installation, ensuring pinpoint accuracy while avoiding existing underground infrastructure. We also utilise slant drilling and directional bore drilling techniques to provide flexible solutions for complex projects. Whether upgrading telecommunications in a busy area or connecting a water line to a detached garage, our efficient and non-invasive method keeps projects on track with minimal surface impact.
