Directional Drilling
Precise Underground Utility Installation With Less Surface Disruption
As part of our full-service site utilities and trenchless utility installation capabilities, we support utility crossings, infrastructure upgrades, water main installation, sanitary sewer installation, storm sewer installation, conduit installation, and other underground utility needs where trenchless methods are the right fit.
Complete Directional Drilling Services
Directional drilling, also known as horizontal directional drilling or HDD, allows underground utilities to be installed along a controlled path without opening a continuous trench across the entire route. This method can be especially useful when utilities need to pass beneath roads, sidewalks, driveways, landscaped areas, parking lots, wetlands, or other sensitive surface conditions.
Our directional drilling services include:
- Directional drilling for underground utility installation
- Utility crossings beneath roads, drives, sidewalks, and developed areas
- Water main and sanitary sewer force main applications
- Storm sewer and drainage-related utility support
- Electrical, communication, and conduit installation support
- Bore path planning, entry and exit pit coordination, and utility route planning
- Coordination with utility locating, potholing, utility trenching, backfill, and restoration work
We work closely with engineers, inspectors, owners, and project managers to help determine when directional drilling is the right approach for the site, soil conditions, utility type, and project schedule.
