About Us

Hammer Down Drilling specializes in the pre-drilling of bedrock, hard pan and cobble for installing ground screws and helical foundations for solar fields. Pre-drilling allows an alternative way to install solar foundations in troublesome ground conditions where other foundations are not easily installed or are not cost effective. As solar construction continues to flourish we have recognized the need of drills and experienced drillers to meet the demands of pre-drilling for solar foundations. We have assembled a team of operators and managers with over 30 years of combined experience in various forms of rock drilling to fulfill this demand. In order to take full advantage of our team’s experience we have put our operators in new, top tier Furukawa drills. Our drills are self-contained and are efficient at pre-drilling foundations quickly.

Solar Rock Drilling

CORE VALUES

Hammer Down Drilling strongly believes in always doing the right thing even when no one is looking. We value our integrity and work hard as a team to safely complete projects in a timely manner while ensuring quality work.

OUR WORK

Hammer Down Drilling currently operates throughout the Eastern United States including Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, New York, Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina. We have successfully pre-drilled foundations across the United States allowing installation of solar fields in locations that would normally hinder installation.

committed to safety

Hammer Down Drilling is highly committed to the safety of our team and others working near our team.
Even our most experienced operators are fully trained by Furukawa to operate our rock drills in a safe
and efficient manner. Each day our operators perform an equipment checklist to ensure the equipment
is operating safely. If there are any safety concerns the operator will lock-out the equipment and notify
his supervisor and the piece of equipment will stay locked-out until all concerns are met. Our operators
are trained to always be aware of their surroundings. Before starting any work, they will inspect the
work area for any hazards and determine the safest way to perform their work while remaining aware of
their surroundings.
