Project Ideas

Business

Micro-Coring for Cables & Irrigation

Offer a mobile service to drill precise 7/8" pass-throughs up to 31" in concrete, block, and stone for low-voltage wiring, camera lines, and drip tubing—an agile alternative to large coring rigs in tight spaces.


Retrofit Epoxy Anchor Installations

Provide drilled-and-epoxied anchors for pergolas, handrails, gates, and equipment pads in existing slabs. Use specification-driven hole depths, dust extraction, and ICC-approved adhesives; include pull/torque testing.


On-Site Boulder Fountain Drilling

Specialize in drilling landscape rocks for water features. Core vertical channels and spillways, install plumbing and basins, and package pumps, lighting, and maintenance plans for a turnkey offering.


Retaining Wall Drainage Retrofits

Relieve hydrostatic pressure by drilling weep holes and installing filtered sleeves in existing masonry walls. Provide inspection, before/after moisture readings, and preventative maintenance scheduling.


Rebar-Resistant Penetration Subcontractor

Partner with electricians, HVAC, and GC teams to add small-diameter penetrations in rebar-heavy concrete. Use scanning, dust control, and the 4-cutter head’s rebar-strike tolerance to minimize downtime and patching.

Creative

Boulder Fountain Core & Spillway

Drill a vertical 7/8" channel up to 31" deep through a landscape boulder for pump tubing, then add angled cross-holes for spillways. Plumb with 1/2–3/4" tubing and create a self-contained recirculating feature with hidden basin and lighting.


Hidden LED Conduits in Concrete Steps

Bore long, clean runs through concrete stairs or garden walls to route low-voltage cables for step lights and handrail LEDs. Hide penetrations at risers/returns and pull cable using a fish tape for a seamless, illuminated walkway.


Stone-and-Concrete Lantern Column

Stack pavers or split stone and drill 7/8" light tunnels that accept frosted glass or acrylic tubes. Run wiring internally, insert LED modules, and cap with a stone top to create sculptural outdoor lanterns.


Dowel-Jointed Stone Bench/Sculpture

Create aligned 7/8" holes in adjacent boulders or slabs to accept epoxied steel rods, forming a stable stone bench or abstract sculpture. The deep holes allow strong hidden connections without visible brackets.


Planter Weep Holes and Irrigation Sleeves

Retrofit thick concrete planters and retaining walls with 7/8" drain/weep holes and sleeves for drip lines. Add filter fabric and small PVC inserts to improve drainage and plant health while concealing irrigation.
