In 1882, company founder, Mahlon Layne, combined hard work and ingenuity to devise better ways of drilling to coax water out of the arid lands of a community known as Old Swan Lake, near what is now Hurley, S.D. Mahlon’s neighbors quickly took notice and shortly thereafter, a company was born.
There are many different methods for installing drilled shafts, including: conventional auger drilling, slurry displaced drilled shafts, oscillation and reverse circulation, just to name a few.
