Hole drilling is used when you need to install a utility pole or put in a fence. The process may sound simple, but there are many factors you must consider to complete it correctly the first time. Below are three issues to avoid, so you can tackle the hole drilling project properly from the start.

3 Potential Problems While Hole Drilling

1. Incorrect Tools

It’s incredibly satisfying to finally install a fence that you’ve been putting off on the to-do list. Don’t let this task linger longer by accidentally getting the wrong tools. Measure the fence poles, so you can rent the correct auger to allow easy insertion into the newly dug ground at the proper height.

2. Obstacles

Hole drilling requires first assessing the dirt. Know what’s beneath the area you’re drilling to avoid problems like wires, pipes, and aquifers. Learn about local soil types, so you can be prepared for big rocks or other rough terrain issues that may pop up. You could also benefit from having professionals handle the hole drilling, so you don’t have to worry about assessing and addressing obstacles.

3. Inaccuracy

Always make sure you’re going to create a hole in the locale where you need it. This will prevent you doing extra work that is unnecessary and help keep the project efficient and on-time. Creating a diagram complete with accurate measurements can aid in this process.
