The term “EXPLOSIVES” can conjure many misconceptions, negative perceptions or outright myths that have been based on wild exaggerations or from a preconceived notion.  Our work begins with a positive public perception, a site–specific drill plan, and an appropriate blast plan.  Through pre-blast surveys, we convey to the public our intentions, discuss any concerns, and explain what is to be expected.

Our blast technicians are highly trained and experienced through continuing certification programs, field experience, and product knowledge.  We specialize in controlled blasting techniques and have maintained a solid and proven track record of safety with hundreds of various blasting applications.  This has been accomplished by a strict adherence to Federal, State, and local laws as well as the safety of personnel, personal property, and the environmental impact.

Drilling and blasting remains the most economical form of rock removal.  Whether it is trench, mass, foundations, pre-splitting walls, elevator shafts, or any application you can think of, our drilling and blasting team can customize a plan for your specific needs.
