Directional Drilling Services in Artesia, California

Hi there! Welcome to Directional Boring California. If you are looking for a way to install utilities underground without tearing up your property, you have come to the right place. We are a development and engineering company right here in the area. We specialize in Directional Drilling and serve the Artesia community and the greater Los Angeles region.

We know that construction projects can feel overwhelming. Nobody wants to see their beautiful landscaping, driveway, or local roads destroyed just to run a pipe or a conduit. That is where we come in. We use trenchless technology to get the job done cleanly and efficiently.

What is Directional Drilling?

You might hear people call it Horizontal Directional Drilling (or HDD for short). Think of it as a minimally invasive surgery for the ground. Instead of digging a big, long trench across your property, we drill a precise path underground.

We start at one point and come out at another. The surface above stays mostly untouched. This is perfect for:

• Installing water lines.
• Running electrical conduits.
• Laying fiber optic cables.
• Gas line installations.
• Sewer replacements.

One thing we love about this service is how much time and mess it saves. You don’t have to repave a parking lot or replant a garden when the job is done.

Who We Are: Trusted and Certified

When you hire a contractor, you want to know they are reliable. We take that seriously. We are licensed as a General A Engineering Contractor and a General B Contractor in California. This means we are legally cleared to handle big, complex engineering projects as well as general building tasks.

But there is more to us than just licenses. We are proud to be a Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE). Our background in the service taught us discipline, integrity, and how to get a mission done right.

To give you extra peace of mind, we hold several other certifications:

• SDVOSB (Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business)
• PDBE (Port of Long Beach/Disadvantaged Business Enterprise)
• SB-Micro (Small Business Micro)
• SB-PW (Small Business Public Works)

We mention these because they show that we are vetted, verified, and ready to work. Whether you are a homeowner in Artesia or a project manager for a city job in Los Angeles, you can trust us to be professional.

How the Process Works

If you have never seen directional drilling in action, it is actually pretty cool. Here is a simple breakdown of how we handle a project in Artesia:

1. Planning: We don't just start drilling. We look at the plans. We locate existing utilities so we don't hit anything. Safety is our top priority.
2. Pilot Hole: We drill a small hole first. We steer the drill bit underground to follow the exact path we need.
3. Reaming: Once the pilot hole reaches the end, we swap the drill bit for a tool called a reamer. We pull this back through the hole to make it wide enough for your pipe.
4. Pullback: Finally, we pull the pipe or conduit through the tunnel.

It is smooth, fast, and keeps the disruption to a minimum.

What Does It Cost?

This is the question everyone asks. "How much will it cost?" The honest answer is that it varies. Every job site in Artesia or Los Angeles is a little different. However, here are the main things that influence the price:

• Soil Conditions: Drilling through soft dirt is easier and cheaper than drilling through solid rock.
• Distance: Longer bores take more time and materials.
• Diameter: A wide sewer pipe needs a bigger tunnel than a thin fiber optic cable.
• Location Obstacles: Navigating around other utilities or under busy roads can add complexity.

We believe in being upfront. We will look at your specific needs and give you a clear idea of what to expect.
