Directional Drilling Services in Pomona, California

If you live or work in Pomona, you know how busy things can get. Between the historic neighborhoods, the busy commercial areas, and the traffic, the last thing anyone wants to see is a road torn up by construction crews. That is where we come in.

At Directional Boring California, we specialize in getting utilities from Point A to Point B without wrecking the surface. We use a method called Directional Drilling (often called Horizontal Directional Drilling or HDD). It is a way to install pipes, conduits, and cables underground without digging a massive trench.

We are a development and engineering company right here in the area. We hold both General A Engineering and General B Contractor licenses. This means we understand the big picture of your construction project, not just the digging part.

What Is Directional Drilling?

Think of it like threading a needle, but on a much larger scale and underground. Instead of bringing in excavators to dig a long, messy ditch across a parking lot or a street, we use a specialized drill rig.

Here is how it works simply:
1. Pilot Hole: We drill a small hole along a planned path.
2. Reaming: We make that hole bigger to fit the pipe you need.
3. Pullback: We pull the pipe or conduit back through the hole.

The best part? The surface stays mostly untouched. Your landscaping, the sidewalk, and the driveway remain safe.

Why Choose Directional Boring California?

Trust is everything in this business. You need a team that shows up on time, does the work safely, and sticks to the budget. We take a lot of pride in our background.

We are a Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE).

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

We bring that same level of military precision to every job site in Pomona and the greater Los Angeles area.

What We Can Install for You

Directional drilling is incredibly versatile. We work with homeowners, business owners, and city planners. Here are a few things we commonly install using this trenchless method:

• Fiber Optic Cables: Essential for high-speed internet.
• Electrical Conduits: Running power to a new garage or structure.
• Water Lines: Connecting utilities without digging up the garden.
• Gas Lines: Safe and precise installation.
• Sewer Lines: replacing or installing new waste lines.

Let's Talk About Cost

This is the question we get asked the most: "How much does it cost?"

To be honest, it is hard to give a flat price without seeing the job site because every project in Pomona is different. However, we believe in being open about what drives the price.

Here are the main factors that influence your quote:

1. Soil Conditions: Drilling through soft dirt is faster (and cheaper) than drilling through solid rock.
2. Distance and Depth: Longer and deeper bores require more time and materials.
3. Existing Utilities: If the ground is full of other pipes (water, gas, electric), we have to go slower and use more caution to navigate safely.
4. Location: A wide-open field is easier to work in than a tight urban alleyway.

While directional drilling might seem more technical than trenching, it often saves money in the long run. When you factor in the cost of repairing a torn-up concrete driveway or re-landscaping a yard, drilling is often the smarter financial choice.
