Directional Drilling Services in Vernon, California

Hi there. Thanks for stopping by to learn more about what we do. If you are looking for a way to install underground utilities without tearing up the streets or sidewalks, you have come to the right place.

At Directional Boring California, we specialize in Directional Drilling and Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD). We serve the greater Los Angeles area, but we have a special appreciation for working in Vernon, California. We know Vernon is the industrial heartbeat of the region. It’s busy. Trucks are moving constantly. Businesses need to stay open. That is exactly why our trenchless methods are the perfect fit for this city.

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

What is Directional Drilling?

You might hear people call it directional boring or HDD. Essentially, it is a way to install pipes, conduits, or cables underground without digging a big, messy trench.

Think of it like threading a needle, but the needle is moving underground.

We drill a small pilot hole from point A to point B. We can go under:
Roads and highways
Railroad tracks
Parking lots
Existing buildings
* Landscaping and rivers

Once the hole is drilled, we pull your pipe or conduit back through it. On the surface, life goes on as usual. Traffic keeps moving. Your business keeps running.

Why HDD is Perfect for Vernon

Vernon is unique. It is packed with warehouses, factories, and logistics centers. We know that in Vernon, blocking a driveway or a street for open-trench digging can cause a logistical nightmare.

With Horizontal Directional Drilling in Vernon, we minimize disruption. We set up our equipment at the entry and exit points, and the rest of the work happens beneath the surface. You won’t have to repave an entire parking lot just to run a new fiber optic line or water pipe.

Who We Are: Trust and Service

We take a lot of pride in our background. Directional Boring California is a Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE).

To us, this is more than just a certification. It represents our commitment to service, discipline, and getting the job done right the first time. We bring that military-grade focus to every engineering project.

In addition to being a DVBE, we also hold several other certifications that might be important for your project requirements:
SDVOSB (Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business)
PDBE (Port of Long Beach/LA recognition)
SB-Micro (Small Business Micro)
SB-PW (Small Business Public Works)

When you hire us, you are hiring a team that is verified, licensed, and ready to work.

Factors That Affect the Cost

One of the most common questions we get is, "How much does it cost?"

We wish we could give a single flat number, but every job is a little different. Here are a few things that determine the price of Directional Drilling:

1. Soil Conditions: Drilling through soft dirt is faster and cheaper 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 spot in Vernon requires different planning than an open field.
4. Existing Utilities: We have to navigate around gas lines, water pipes, and electrical cables already in the ground. Safety is our top priority.

However, we believe in being upfront. We will look at your project and give you a clear, honest estimate. No hidden surprises.
