Why Choose HDD
|
|
|
 |
 |

Henniker Directional Drilling was formed as a sister company to
Contoocook Artesian Well Co., Inc., a
third-generation family business in Henniker, New Hampshire, that has been drilling through the state's
rocky soils for 65 years.
To form the company, Rick Patenaude, owner of the well drilling business, partnered with Jeff Martin, who
worked at Ingersoll Rand for 13 years managing drilling rig maintenance teams. The partners saw that
HDD would be needed more often as New England's industry and housing markets have expanded so has the need
for efficient utility installation.

Our TR-14 Mini Directional Drill has been designed for the installation
of underground utilities such as gas lines, electric lines, fiber optic lines, cable TV and sewer
