OUR SERVICES
Drilling, controlled blasting, and rock removal—planned around the ground, access, nearby structures, and the work that follows.
The right method starts with the site. Compare the three core services below, then use a Site Review to confirm the sequence, equipment, and handoff.
Create the pattern the next operation depends on.
Drilling establishes hole location, depth, and spacing for rock work—whether it supports a planned blast, site preparation, infrastructure, or quarry production.
Move larger volumes of rock through a planned, site-specific shot.
Controlled blasting is evaluated when depth, volume, production needs, and surrounding conditions support a planned blast within the larger excavation sequence.
Remove ledge in localized, phased, or restricted work zones.
Hoe ramming uses mechanical removal where blasting does not fit the site’s access, approvals, sequence, or limited scope.
Capital Rock first evaluates what the rock is holding up, what surrounds the work, and what the site will allow. Those conditions shape the equipment, sequence, controls, and handoff.
How much rock must move and the geometry of the cut.
Working room, equipment position, and material movement.
Homes, utilities, traffic, or active work around the site.
Project requirements, coordination, and documentation that may apply.
Schedule, finished grade, material reuse, or load-out.
HOW THE METHOD IS CHOSEN
WHEN
Greater volume, depth or production demand.
WHY
The drill pattern prepares the planned shot.
Hole placement, depth and spacing feed the blast sequence and the downstream plan for moving and handling the rock.
WHEN
Localized, phased or approval-restricted work.
WHY
A planned blast may not fit the site.
Mechanical removal may suit these conditions.
WHEN
Access, working room, timing or nearby activity.
WHY
The constraints can shape the method and sequence.
Material movement also influences the approach. Unusual access or sequencing constraints may call for specialized review.

Common Questions
Practical answers for choosing a starting service, combining methods, and sending a review.
Start with the job, not the method. Capital Rock looks at the site first, then names drilling, controlled blasting, hoe ramming, or specialized work that fits.
Yes. Some jobs stay on one tool. Others combine drilling with a blast, or a ram with leftover drilling, depending on the site.
No. A review does not lock the job to blasting, ramming, or any other path.
Location, photos or plans, a rough sense of the rock, schedule, access, and what sits nearby.
Before the sequence is locked. Early enough that the method can still change with the site.
Yes. Partial plans and photos are enough to start. We will ask for what is missing.
That is the specialized path — when access, neighbors, or the sequence itself run the job.
We will name a likely path and what to send next. Nothing is committed until you decide.
Ready to get started?
Share the site location, approximate scope, access, schedule, and surrounding conditions. Capital Rock will review the information and identify the appropriate next step.
Requesting a review does not commit the project to a specific method.
