Small bores, big relief

An Orlando homeowner with a new pool, a builder finishing a Lake Nona lot, a plumber replacing a service under a driveway in College Park: all of them need a short bore, 40 to 200 feet and a few feet down. The compact directional rig sets up in the drive, the pits are the size of a doormat, the bore is steered and tracked so it misses the irrigation and the existing services, and the yard looks untouched that evening.

Typical Orange County bores

Water, gas or sewer services from the main to the house under the drive and the walk.
Power to a pool pump, a summer kitchen, a dock, a gate or a casita.
Fiber and low-voltage drops; conduit between buildings on a small commercial lot.
Irrigation and lighting sleeves under pavers and patios.
A failed service under the driveway replaced without breaking the concrete.

Sand and water on a lot

Orlando lots are sand with water a few feet down and, in the lakefront neighborhoods, roots everywhere. The drilling fluid handles the water and the locator keeps the bore under the roots and above the services. The crew potholes at the pits before the pilot hole starts.

Other drilling and boring services in Orange County

Directional Drilling Orange County

Horizontal directional drilling (HDD): a steered bore between two small pits that puts conduit, pipe and cable under roads, driveways, parking lots and landscaping with no open trench.

Horizontal Drilling Orange County

Horizontal drilling for any line that has to cross something it cannot cut through: a street, a slab, a canal, a stand of trees. Entry pit, exit pit, nothing opened in between.

Underground Drilling Orange County

Underground drilling for new utilities where the surface is spoken for: tracked, steered bores placed under whatever is already built on top.

Fiber Optic Cable Drilling Orange County

Fiber duct and drop conduit installed by directional drill for carriers, co-ops, campuses and developments: long shots along the right-of-way, short shots to the building.

Electrical Conduit Drilling Orange County

PVC and HDPE electrical conduit bored under pavement for primary feeds, secondary services, site lighting and EV charging circuits.

Underground Conduit Drilling Orange County

Single ducts and multi-duct bundles pulled through one reamed bore: communications, power, controls and spares placed together under the obstacle.

Structured Cable Drilling Orange County

Conduit between buildings for structured cabling, campus networks, security and controls, bored under courtyards, drives and parking rather than cut across them.

Utility Drilling Orange County

Utility drilling for water, sewer, gas, power and telecom owners: permitted road crossings, mains under live streets, services to the meter.

Communications Drilling Orange County

Communications conduit and cable placed by directional drill: telecom, cable TV, cell-site backhaul and private networks, under roads and lots.

Missile Boring Orange County

Missile boring (pneumatic piercing) drives a steel mole through the soil for short, straight, shallow runs under a driveway or sidewalk: the quickest way to sleeve a lawn or a walk.

Auger Boring and Drilling Orange County

Cased auger bores for road, highway and railroad crossings and for gravity sewer that has to hold an exact grade: a straight steel casing jacked from a pit.

Sewer, Water and Drain Lines Orange County

New water services and mains, sewer force mains and laterals, and storm drains installed under roads, driveways and yards without trenching them open.

Questions about directional boring in Orange County

How long does a residential bore take in Orlando?+

Usually one day, pits and restoration included.

Will you find my sprinkler lines?+

811 does not mark private lines; the crew walks the lot with you, locates what it can, bores below the irrigation and potholes at the pits.

Under a pool deck?+

Yes; it is one of the most common reasons to bore. The deck stays whole and the pits go in the beds on either side.

Is boring cheaper than a trench?+

Across open grass, a trench can be. Once the line crosses a drive, pavers, a deck or mature landscaping, the bore wins once restoration is counted.

Free estimate?+

Yes. Call (855) 520-2670 now or send the run through the form; reply within 24 hours.
