Season by season: A look at directional boring
June 4, 2024Trenchless drilling is growing in popularity and it’s being used in many different ways.
Whether you need a pipeline installed or communications lines laid, trenchless drilling is an increasingly popular option.
The question is, why? There are many reasons. Here are a few:
- It is secure. Trenchless technology allows for less excavation – meaning it avoids accidents and landslides. It also limits the chances of finding an “unknown” issue or problem, whether that is a rock, harmful chemicals or electrical wires.
- It’s affordable. Sure, you might pay a little more upfront, but once you invest in the technology, it pays off quickly. And it is easy to save money on replacing landscaping or hardscaping – like you’d have to do if you did regular trenching or excavation for most projects.
- Little environmental impact. One of the biggest advantages to trenchless drilling is it has minimal impact on the environment – both ecologically and socially. Nearby businesses and residents are almost unaffected, and it can help preserve habitats.
- It’s precise. Compared to open cut excavation, trenchless technology is incredibly precise and targeted – so you don’t have to worry about pipe installation, maintenance and repairs.
The bottom line is, if you need a drilling procedure done, consulting with different boring contractors can be beneficial so you can get a sense of what will happen – and how trenchless drilling can be a benefit.
Trenchless technology can be precise and safer – while causing considerably less disruption to sensitive or busy areas.
It’s growing in popularity for these reasons and more. It is revolutionizing trench building and will only continue to grow in popularity.
