What is Jack and Bore?
Jack and Bore is a trenchless method used to install underground pipes without disturbing the surface above. Ideal for crossing roads, railways, and environmentally sensitive areas, this technique involves jacking a casing pipe horizontally through the soil while an auger removes the material from within. The result? A clean, efficient pipe installation that avoids open excavation.
