Horizontal Directional Drilling Services

Horizontal directional drilling (HDD or trenchless drilling) helps technicians to avoid underground or surface obstacles, and has become the preferred method for installing utilities and pipelines. Anta Plumbing can drill underneath driveways, patios, river crossings and roadways, and has been contracted by the City of Toronto on many occasions to help with drilling conduits for electrical and gas lines. Horizontal directional drilling services are helpful for the installation of various utility lines, including:

• electrical conduit
• fiber optic cabling for telecommunications
• oil and gas pipelines
• sewerage pipelines

Horizontal directional drilling offers many benefits:

• No job is too big or too small.
• No need to pump water out of trenches.
• No lost time resulting from weather conditions.
• Reduced surface disruption and above-ground construction damage.
• Reduced pollution and noise.

Our technicians attend continued training and certification to further their skills and we only use the latest air drilling equipment and techniques.

Benefits of Horizontal Directional Drilling Service

Horizontal directional drilling services offer several benefits to property owners and the city. It allows installation of infrastructure across parks, roads, and waterways, where alternative types of drilling are impossible. Probably the most important benefit of horizontal direct drilling is that allows for utility installation without large scale trench digging.

In horizontal directional drilling installations, an entrance and exit hole are dug. Using a directional bore machine, a bore head is driven into the ground at a set angle. Directional drilling machines use drilling fluid to assist with the process. It lubricates the machinery and provides other benefits, such as prolonging machine life, speeding up production and more.
