Directional drilling is a trenchless method of underground pipe installation. Horizontal boring machines drill a pilot hole that is able to enter and exit at predetermined locations and even change direction. The underground tunnel follows an arc line from the entry point, down under the special crossing area, and then resurfaces on the opposite side. Using advanced technology and highly trained technicians, a drill head guides the drilling pipe electronically to ensure the angle, depth, and exit point adheres to carefully designed engineering plans. This allows for completely underground installation without the mess or expense of trenching!
