What is moling, and will it work on my property in Tonbridge?

Moling is trenchless pipe-laying. A pneumatic mole is driven through the ground between two small pits and the new water pipe follows it, so there is no open trench across the garden. It suits most Tonbridge properties, though very stony or heavily rooted ground can rule it out. We assess that before quoting, not after.

Can you replace an old lead or leaking pipe without wrecking the drive?

That is exactly what moling is for. In most cases the drive, path or lawn between the two pits is untouched because the pipe travels underneath it. Where a run genuinely cannot be moled we will say so and price the alternative honestly.

Do you cover the villages around Tonbridge too?

Yes. Hildenborough, Hadlow, East Peckham and the surrounding TN villages are all within our patch, for moling, mains work, new connections and drainage alike.
