Expert Directional Drilling Services in Lakewood, California

Here at Directional Boring California, we understand that construction projects can be stressful. Whether you are a homeowner needing a new utility line or a commercial developer working on a large infrastructure project, the thought of digging trenches often brings up images of mess, mud, and disrupted traffic.

But it doesn't have to be that way.

We specialize in Directional Drilling in Lakewood and the greater Los Angeles area. You might hear this called Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) or simply "boring." No matter what you call it, the result is the same: we install underground pipes and conduits without tearing up the surface.

What is Directional Drilling?

Imagine you need to run a water line under your driveway. In the old days, you would have to jackhammer that concrete, dig a trench, lay the pipe, and then pay someone to pour new concrete. That takes a long time and looks messy.

With directional drilling, we take a different approach. We use a specialized drill rig to bore a path underground. It’s almost like threading a needle beneath the surface. We start at one point, drill underneath the obstacle (like a road, a sidewalk, or a beautiful garden), and pop out at the destination.

Once the pilot hole is drilled, we pull the pipe back through. The surface remains untouched. Your driveway stays intact. The traffic keeps moving.

Why Choose Us?

There are plenty of contractors out there, but we bring something different to the table. We are a development and engineering company licensed as a General A Engineering Contractor and a General B Contractor in California. This means we handle the big, complex engineering jobs, but we also understand the general building side of things.

We are also incredibly proud of our background. We are a Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE).

When you hire a veteran-owned business, you aren't just ticking a box. You are hiring a team that understands discipline, precision, and the importance of completing the mission. We show up when we say we will. We stick to the plan. We respect your property.

In addition to being a DVBE, we hold several other certifications that demonstrate our reliability and standing in the community:
SDVOSB (Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business)
PDBE (Port of Long Beach/Los Angeles SBE)
SB-Micro (Small Business Micro)
SB-PW (Small Business Public Works)

We mention these not to brag, but to let you know that we are vetted, certified, and serious about what we do.

The Benefits of Going Trenchless in Lakewood

Lakewood is a beautiful community. The streets are lined with mature trees and well-kept landscaping. Traditional excavation can damage root systems and ruin lawns that took years to grow.

Here is why our neighbors in Lakewood prefer our trenchless method:

• Less disruption: We don’t block whole streets or destroy sidewalks.
• Speed: Often, drilling is much faster than digging and refilling trenches.
• Cost-effective: When you factor in the cost of repairing concrete or landscaping, drilling often saves money.
• Cleaner sites: There is much less dirt to haul away.

What Factors Influence the Cost?

We believe in being transparent. While we can’t give you an exact quote without seeing your project, we can tell you what changes the price.

1. Soil Conditions: Drilling through soft dirt is easier than drilling through solid rock.
2. Distance and Diameter: Longer bores and wider pipes require bigger equipment and more time.
3. Location: Working in a tight urban spot in Los Angeles might require different logistics than an open field.
4. Utilities: We always scan for existing gas, water, and power lines. navigating around a crowded underground creates a more complex job.
