What is Tunneling?

Tunneling is a type of excavation that digs under your property and creates a tunnel. It is used in a variety of situations and is often required when your home or building has foundation or plumbing issues but the source of the problem is difficult to access. Instead of disturbing the surface of the residential or commercial property, tunneling digs below where the damage is occurring. This ensures that there is no unnecessary disruption to your landscaping, driveway, or other elements of your property. By minimizing surface damage, tunneling provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for hard-to-reach repairs.

 

Property owners in the Dallas-Fort Worth area often face foundational issues and utility problems due to shifting soil, expansive clay, and weather fluctuations. Black Beard Foundation Repair offers tunneling as an effective solution, providing experts with direct access to compromised areas without affecting the structure of your home. This process is crucial for maintaining the integrity of your property and protecting your house or bulding for the long term.

5-Step Process

Our Foundation Tunneling Service Process

When Should You Consider Tunneling?

Foundation Issues

Tunneling provides contractors access under your home or commercial building to assess or repair any foundation issues, such as foundation cracks or shifting, without excavating your entire property.

Plumbing Work

Tunneling can provide access to broken, deteriorating, or leaking pipes for repair or replacement. This is especially useful when pipes are located under a concrete slab or in other areas that are difficult to reach with traditional excavation methods.

Utility Line Work

Installing or replacing utility lines is a common tunneling project. Gas lines, water lines, and electrical conduits are examples of utilities that may need to be installed under or around your home.

Drainage Repair

Poor drainage and flooding are common problems that may be fixed using tunneling to access and repair the drainage system without uprooting or damaging surface features like your driveway, patio, or garden.

Property Preservation

For projects that require preserving landscaping, patios, sidewalks, or other important features, tunneling is an ideal solution. Work can be performed without disturbing or removing surface features.
