Your project needs to get done, but there’s about 10 tons of solid rock between you and the next step. We can fix that and have your job prepped for the next stage before you know it. Our drilling and blasting teams are able to handle everything from residential landscaping to massive commercial projects. Call or message us and we will get things rolling for you.
We have rock breakers for our 200, 225, 245, and 350 size excavators these are great alternatives to blasting. Areas where a pre-blast survey is not feasible or slope stability is an issue, rock breaking can provide a cost-effective alternative.
General blasting jobs that are small in populated areas can run up costs with services of drills, mats, and the cost of nitro-based explosives during winter months. Combo that with the costs of a pre-blast survey and it can make rock removal not efficient. Often the best solution is to use an oversize machine with a breaker. This involves only one machine transported to the site and a one-man crew. Saving customers considerable money in the pre-construction phase.
With few new lots coming up for the title and many of the older homes on Vancouver Island and the lower mainland sitting on large lots; demolition and building is a popular choice.
At D&H we take care of every aspect of your demo. From disposal bins to remediation reports, we have the team to get it done right.

We work in every municipality and have working relationships with all of them. Our network and dialed-in approach allows us to help with permits and applications to get your project cleared.
