Holes drilled straight, clean and to depth
Post holes, pier holes and footings drilled by machine save you a weekend of hand digging and, more importantly, give you consistent holes. Consistency is the point. A fence line where every hole is the same diameter and the same depth sets straight and stays straight. A pole barn where the footings are all to spec carries load the way the plan says it will.
We auger for fence lines, deck footings, pier and footing holes, pole barn footings, and sign and light posts. Rural properties in the western half of our area keep this work steady, because acreage means fence line and pole barns.
Indiana clay is what makes hand digging miserable and machine augering worth it. Clay comes out in a plug rather than a scoop, it is heavier than people expect, and it turns to concrete in a dry August. A machine does not care. What a machine does care about is what is buried, which is why utility locates come before the auger comes off the trailer.
Before we mobilize we confirm the hole count, the diameter and the depth, because those three numbers are what the job is. Then we call in locates, lay out and mark every hole with you so there is no disagreement about placement once the ground is open, drill to depth, and either rake the spoil out or haul it off, whichever you prefer.
