Precision Diamond Drilling for Stormwater Management in Darlington | TSL Projects Case Study

Darlington
TSL Projects

Project Brief


We partnered once again with TSL Projects in Darlington to provide expert diamond drilling solutions for a challenging job. 

They needed a precise 750mm opening in an existing manhole to accommodate a new stormwater drainage system. This required extreme accuracy while keeping disruption to the surrounding infrastructure and environment to a minimum. 

The Challenge


Creating a large, precise hole in a manhole presents several difficulties. 

The structural integrity of the manhole must be maintained, and the work needs to be done quickly and efficiently to reduce downtime and the impact on the surrounding area.

Traditional methods often involve noisy, disruptive processes that can create dust and debris.

The Process

DP Diamond Drilling employed a core drilling technique using a diamond blade specifically chosen for its ability to cut through reinforced concrete with minimal vibration. 

This method allowed our expert operators to create a perfectly circular 750mm opening with exceptional accuracy.

The diamond core drilling technique used by DP Diamond Drilling ensured a clean and precise cut, a critical factor in maintaining the proper functioning of the stormwater drainage system. 

This level of accuracy is essential for ensuring the efficient flow of water and preventing any potential blockages or leaks.

Benefits of Diamond Drilling


Diamond drilling is renowned for its speed and efficiency. This significantly reduced the project time and labor costs for TSL, allowing them to complete the installation quickly and with minimal disruption to their operations.  

Compared to traditional methods, diamond drilling produces less noise, vibration, and dust.

This made it the ideal solution for this project, as it minimised disruption to the surrounding environment and ensured a safe and clean working space.
