Drilling Down

Drilling

Our advanced drilling equipment removes cylindrical cores of material to create uniform holes for pipes, conduits, or other utilities. In some cases, it can also collect samples for soil testing and analysis.

Shaping Connecticut’s Landscape

Blasting

We use the latest technology to plan and execute safe, efficient, and highly controlled rock and material removal. In many situations, we’re able to use blasted material as fill, minimizing waste and protecting budgets.

Reusing Material Saves You Money

Rock Processing

Our teams will process the rock after blasting, so it can be used on site or removed and recycled. We use rockwheels, crushers, and jackhammers to break down rock masses into manageable materials.

Aggregate Made to Suit

Aggregate Manufacturing

Sweeney’s crews take the material we unearth and crush it to spec, saving you from costly aggregate purchases. We screen and filter the resulting aggregate and classify it according to its size and makeup.

Drill, Blast, Build

Boom. Done.

We Work Differently


We rely on the latest tech to achieve the best outcomes — before we blast, while we drill, and after we’ve wrapped up. Our machinery and modeling capabilities empower us to take on Connecticut’s most challenging jobs.


Over the years, we’ve also gained a deep understanding of state and local regulations. The Sweeney team sets parameters for vibrations and monitors all blasting operations to ensure compliance.
