Every bore starts with Texas 811 — then rig, mud program, and pullback matched to your ground.

Our process

Our Process

811 locates before steel enters the ground — every job, every time.

Consult & Site Assessment

We review plans, bore path, access, existing utilities, and owner goals — residential repair or engineered crossing.

811 Utility Locate

Texas dig law compliance: ticket, wait period, verify marks, pothole at conflicts before steel or bit enters ground.

Bore Plan & Engineering

Alignment, profile, soil expectations, permit needs, and crossing agreements for roads, rails, or waterways.

Mobilize Equipment

Right rig for length and diameter — mini-HDD for tight urban shots, larger spreads for long pulls and reams.

Pilot Hole & Drilling

Steerable pilot, survey checks, reaming passes as required for product pipe or casing diameter.

Pipe Pullback / Installation

HDPE fusion, steel casing, conduit bundles, or carrier pipe installed per spec with pullback monitoring.

Inspection & Testing

Alignment records, mandrel or pressure tests where spec requires, as-built for owners and inspectors.

Site Restoration

Minimal surface disturbance philosophy — compact entry/exit pits, restore hardscape and landscape per scope.

What Happens After You Call

Dispatch reviews urgency — emergency line strikes and utility failures jump the queue when safe. Standard quotes schedule a consult or plan review, confirm locates, then mobilize the spread matched to diameter and length.

Homeowners: expect clear talk on access, landscaping protection, and city tap coordination. GCs and municipalities: expect alignment with your inspector, traffic control, and as-built requirements.
