About MD&B

our expertise

Setting Earth Shattering Standards Since 1966
Maine Drilling & Blasting has earned our reputation as one of the safest, most experienced drilling and blasting companies in the Northeast. During the past 40+ years, we’ve performed over one million controlled blasts for highways, site development, quarries, houses lots, utilities and marine work.

Extensive Experience
We’ve drilled some of the most aesthetic presplit faces, helped plan and develop over 120 quarries, installed rock bolts over water, under stadium seating and 50 feet above highways, and mechanically broken hundreds of thousands of cubic yards of rock with our hoe rams. We have extensive experience in projects from wind farms to ski-slope development.

Specialty Services
Recognized as an industry leader in drilling and blasting services for the construction and quarry markets, we also offer a variety of specialty services throughout the Northeastern United States:

  • Rock Bolting
  • Hoe Ramming
  • Engineering
  • Public Relations
  • Pre-Blast Surveys
  • Packaged and Bulk Explosive Distribution

Leading Industry Technology

  • Engineering
    In 2002, we established an Engineering Department, which has since enabled our blasters and drillers to rely on the most advanced topographical information, computerized simulations, laser profiling of rock faces, and bore-tracking.  Fully staffed, this Department also provides project and customer support in the form of defining scopes, volume surveys and value-added engineering.

  • Bulk Program
    In 2004 we became the first contractor in the country to construct and operate its own bulk explosives blending and loading plant. This allows us to maintain excellent quality control, customize blend for various climates and jobs, and offer our customers the best product at the best prices.  In 2006, we took our bulk program modular improving the company's commitment to local market areas and quality customer service. In 2008 we developed a proprietary micropumper delivery system making bulk even more accessible for small construction projects.
