What Is Underground Directional Boring?

Underground directional boring is a way to get utilities from one point to another without destroying the existing ground or obstacles that are in between the two points. There are different types of machines and systems to achieving this goal but the outcome is always the same. Directional drilling goes above and beyond traditional trenching; connecting utilities and services in places that trenching could not. Common uses are getting services under roads, waterways, drains, and construction areas that have already been sodded.

Here are some of the jobs we have done . .

One advantage of underground directional boring is going under roads, sidewalks, or existing land that does not need to be disturbed. Underground directional drilling normally has a smaller construction footprint; meaning a lot less of the existing ground is disturbed. There is still damage that is done as with all construction equipment, but proper planning and patience can keep it to a minimum.

For the most part, underground directional boring will only disturb the location the machine is set up at and any place that utilities need to be connected.

Underground directional boring is also used to provide utilities underground in areas that are normally too treacherous to run a trencher or excavator on.
