Auger Drilled Well Points
Some of the team have been working in Southampton this week. We were called in to remedy work carried out by a previous contractor where a solid base had not been laid for a 7 meter deep tank. Without a base the chamber was unstable and rising.
The tank and surrounding ground need to be cleared of water before we can enter the chamber and lay a solid concrete base. The team used an auger to drill 20 well points to just below the tank base. Pipework was then installed and surface level pumps used to suck the ground water away from the tank. Once the water has been cleared we can then enter the chamber and complete the job.
