Business
Dustless Pass-Through Drilling Service
Offer on-site, OSHA-compliant dust-extracted drilling for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC contractors. Create clean 1–2 inch penetrations in concrete and CMU for conduit sleeves, mini-splits, and low-voltage bundles using SDS-max bits in multiple diameters.
Retaining Wall Weep Hole Retrofits
Specialize in adding weep holes to existing masonry and concrete retaining walls to relieve hydrostatic pressure. Drill clean penetrations, install vents/filters, and upsell drainage fabric and gravel backfill services.
Anchor and Epoxy Dowel Installations
Provide precision drilling for structural retrofits, handrails, equipment pads, and balcony rails. Use appropriate bit diameters for anchor specs, vacuum-extract dust for better bond, and offer full-service epoxy injection and torque verification.
Boulder Fountain Drilling + Kit Sales
Mobile service that drills customer-supplied stones for bubbling fountains, then sells a turnkey kit: pump, basin, tubing, and lighting. Market to landscapers and homeowners seeking custom water features without expensive core drilling.
Signage and Awning Mount Prep
Partner with sign shops to handle heavy-duty hole drilling in concrete and masonry facades for sleeve anchors and pass-throughs. The thru-hole bit’s dust extraction keeps storefronts clean, reducing cleanup time and client disruption.
Creative
Perforated Concrete Light Screen
Precast or repurpose concrete slabs, then drill a staggered grid of 1 3/4-inch holes to create a privacy screen that throws patterned light. Use the thru-hole bit with dust extraction for clean, chip-free perforations. Add LED strips or colored glass inserts behind select holes for night-time glow.
Boulder Bubbling Fountain
Turn natural stones into water features by drilling vertically through landscape boulders to route pump tubing. The 18-inch working length reaches through thick rocks; the carbide tip handles tough aggregate. Pair with a hidden basin and recirculating pump for a modern garden focal point.
Concrete Lantern Cube
Cast thick-walled concrete cubes or use solid concrete blocks and drill a constellation of holes on all sides. Place a weatherproof LED inside to create a lantern effect. Mix hole sizes (use other diameters as needed) to form patterns, house numbers, or logos.
Self-Watering Planter Mods
Convert heavy concrete or cinder-block planters into self-watering units by drilling pass-throughs for fill tubes, overflow drains, and wicking chambers. The thru-hole design keeps dust down when working indoors or in garages.
Illuminated Path Pavers
Drill clean holes through thick pavers to seat puck lights or glass lenses, then run low-voltage wiring through the penetrations. The SDS-max setup maintains straight, plumb holes for consistent light placement across a walkway.
