Rock Trenching

Rule Construction offers rock trenching for water and sewer installations as an alternative to blasting.  Rock Trenching is one of the most efficient excavation methods when digging through the hardest of ground. With its low speed and high torque, it can take on any challenge while maintaining the utmost quality work.

This type of trencher can cut ground that is too hard to cut with a bucket-type excavator, and cuts narrow and deep trenches.

In addition, you get the benefit of re-using the trench spoil for granular backfill.

Our rock trencher has the capability of trenching solid rock 3 feet wide by 12 feet deep.  When rock is encountered in a residential area, the safest and most economical way to excavate the rock is with our rock trencher.
