Water pipe moling
Non-invasive pipe installation and replacement
Water pipe moling is a trenchless technology designed to install water mains pipes efficiently and with minimal disruption.
Also known as impact moling, this technique avoids the need for extensive excavation, making it ideal for properties where traditional trenching isn’t practical.
Using advanced equipment and skilled operators, we ensure a smooth process that saves time and protects your property.
Impact moling to lay pipes
Pipe moling uses a pneumatic machine to create a precise underground tunnel for pipework without the need for disruptive trenching.
Moling is an effective method for laying pipe in areas with existing landscaping, driveways, or obstructions.
At Balway, we utilise cutting-edge equipment to create pathways for water mains pipes while preserving property aesthetics.

Benefits of pipe moling
Moling means less damage to the ground, less disruption to you and even allows us to reroute your pipework to make any future access easier and more convenient.
Here are the three main reasons it’s our preferred method of underground pipe laying.
Moling is a trenchless technique which avoids the need for large trenches, preserving gardens, driveways, and other landscaping. It’s ideal for maintaining the aesthetics of residential and commercial properties while ensuring reliable water mains installation.
Impact moling is significantly faster and more efficient than traditional trenching methods. By reducing labour time and lowering overall costs, it offers a cost-effective solution for water mains installation or repair. The streamlined process also minimises delays and inconvenience to property owners.
Moling is ideal for areas where traditional excavation is difficult, such as beneath roads, driveways, or landscaped areas. This flexibility makes it a practical choice for properties with limited access or unique site requirements, ensuring successful pipe installation.

Can’t recommend Balway highly enough. Replaced our water main in a most professional and friendly manner. The job was challenging and took longer than anticipated, but they retained their sense of humour and ensured the job was completed to the highest level. We were so relieved that the job was done properly and to our fullest satisfaction.

Leaks, as well as the huge water bills associated with them, are a nightmare. Balway Ltd did an amazing job of replacing our old lead water supply pipe. They went above and beyond to make sure we were absolutely satisfied with the works that they carried out. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone regarding pipe replacement and repairs.
