ABOUT US

During 2006, A&A Drilling was  formed by Andy Jones and Tony Rigg

after working together for a number of years with another local drilling company.  

To date, we have each gained over 25 years of  drilling experience with

continuous tube sampling, super heavy weight (63.5kg hammer) dynamic probing undertaken within a wide

range of site investigations.

In total, up to the end of 2015, we have 

successfully completed over 2500

continuous tube and dynamic probe sites.

We are proud of our health and safety record

with no days lost for injuries to ourselves, staff 

or fellow workers.

Insurance cover…  Public liabilities.up to £5,000,000…covered by our insurance

company.  

Although we are based in the North East of England, we have taken our track-mounted  drilling rigs on many sites through-out the

United Kingdom: 

From London and the Home Counties, to 

Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and 

Northamptonshire.   Our main works are within or around London or Milton Keynes.  However we are frequently in Wales,and before now we have traveled up north to Scotland.

We have worked in many brownfield residential developments for housing and flats including

searching for potential chalk mining or subsidence, desiccation of clay ground near

trees and determining the extent of

historical limestone or ironstone wells or mine workings.Other works have included 

road, rail and chemical sites 

again working through-out England and Wales.

Our continuous tube soil samples can be used 

by our clients for a range of laboratory index 

testing including natural moisture contents,

Atterberg limits, soil suction, particle size

distribution and sulphate and pH.
