Short bores that carry water, sewer, power or conduit under roads, driveways and walks, leaving the surface unbroken.
Cutting a road is costly, slow and often forbidden. Cutting a driveway means patching concrete that will never match. A short bore avoids both, carrying a line underneath in a day without breaking the surface.
We use compact directional drills and boring machines to pass under roads, drives, sidewalks and parking lots. Entry and exit pits sit on either side of the crossing. For road crossings, we work with the road authority on depth, casing and traffic control, and we restore the pits cleanly.
A bore must stay well below the road base so it does not weaken the surface. We set the depth to local rules and monitor the path as we go.
Some crossings need a steel or plastic casing around the line. Others use a sleeve installed ahead of time so future lines can pass without digging.
Road crossings need permits and traffic control. We handle the paperwork and the cones so the crossing is legal and safe.
When a driveway or parking lot is about to be paved, installing empty sleeves first saves cutting later. A few extra pipes at a crossing cost little and give you options for years.

Usually yes. Boring avoids breaking the concrete or asphalt and saves restoration.
Many are completed in a day, once locating and permits are done.
Yes, if the road is public. The road authority sets depth and conditions.
We adjust the method or use a rock bit. We tell you what to expect before we start.
Yes. It is inexpensive insurance for future lines.
