Bore Types & Capabilities
Directional boring solutions for every underground utility — from wind energy collection lines and oil & gas flow lines to water mains, sewer force mains, and multi-duct conduit bundles.
Electrical / Wind Energy
We install underground conduit for any electric project including wind energy collection systems using horizontal directional drilling — the safest, most cost-effective trenchless method for energizing remote sites. Our HDD crews drill through every ground condition, including solid rock, installing pipe beneath roadways, rivers, railroads, wetlands, and steep hillsides where open trenching isn't feasible. Directional Plus completes wind energy bores on schedule and within budget.
Gas & Oil
Directional boring is the preferred trenchless method for installing oil and natural gas lines underground — especially beneath wetlands and sensitive areas where trenching is prohibited. Following an engineered bore path, our HDD rigs install flow lines and casing with minimal surface disturbance and pinpoint accuracy. From oilfield flow lines to commercial gas service, Directional Plus delivers safe, compliant gas and oil pipeline installation.
Water Lines
Water line installation is one of the most common applications for directional boring. Directional Plus installs new water mains, flow lines, retention pond inlets, and irrigation lines with minimal disturbance to existing tree roots and landscaping — ideal for established properties where open trenching would cause costly surface damage. We also bore fresh water service lines to commercial and industrial buildings.
Sewer Lines
Failed sewer lines can damage property and disrupt service. Open-cut sewer replacement is expensive and destroys landscaping, driveways, and hardscape. Horizontal directional drilling installs replacement sewer lines underground while preserving the precise slope needed for gravity flow away from the structure. Our HDD equipment handles sewer line bores of any length and depth.
Multiple Conduits
Directional boring streamlines the installation of multiple utility conduits in a single bore. We drill a pilot hole along the planned path, then pull back reamers to enlarge the bore to the required diameter — repeating as needed — before pulling the bundled conduits through in one pass. The result: multiple underground lines installed with one surface entry and exit, minimal disruption, and lower total project cost.
