Deep Foundations for a Growing Tyler
Tyler is building — medical campuses, retail, industrial parks along I-20, and steady TxDOT work in the Tyler District. All of it starts with what's under the slab. Big Shot Drilling installs drilled shafts and piers, auger cast piles, and micropiles across Tyler, Longview, Jacksonville, Lindale, Whitehouse, and Kilgore — based just 35 minutes west in Henderson County.

East Texas Soil Is Our Home Field
From the iron-ore ridges south of Tyler to sandy Neches bottomland, drilling conditions in Smith County change fast — sometimes within one site. A local crew that has seen it before saves you change orders. And when groundwater or caving sand shows up, we can switch tools to ACIP piles instead of fighting a caving hole.
Also serving Athens and Dallas–Fort Worth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work for general contractors in Tyler?
Yes — most of our Tyler-area work is as a subcontractor to GCs and builders. We bid from your plans and geotech report and hold the schedule we commit to.
Can you handle TxDOT Tyler District projects?
Yes. We're a registered TxDOT vendor based inside the Tyler District, and we drill shafts for bridges, illumination, signals, and sign structures as a sub to primes.
What size projects do you take?
Everything from a handful of piers for a shop or sign to full commercial foundation packages and districtwide signal foundation contracts. No job in the Tyler area is too far or too small to price.
