Underground utility installations are tough when there’s already an existing road or driveway. Traditional cut-and-cover utility installation methods involve breaking up existing concrete, which causes major disruptions and added costs.
At Red Underground & Utility Services, we offer trenching and horizontal directional boring for Tyler, TX, and East Texas. We've mastered everything from navigating under roadways to trenching and shoring through solid rock or dirt.
Choose Red for a cheaper, more efficient way to handle your trenching needs.
Imagine a drilling technique that creates precise bore paths and removes soil non-destructively.
That’s precisely what horizontal directional drilling (HDD) does when it’s paired with hydro-vac technology.
By combining HDD's accuracy with hydro-vac's efficient excavation, we've created a solution that:
The key to successful HDD projects begins with strategic potholing. We make the challenge of blindly navigating through soil or rock a thing of the past.
Potholing eliminates the guesswork, so we can precisely locate existing utilities and assess the underground landscape before starting horizontal directional drilling.
This means no:
From soft soils to hard rock, horizontal boring is used in various soil conditions. This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of applications.
In urban areas, our underground boring contractors use horizontal excavating to install utilities under roads without disrupting traffic flow.
Directional boring provides precise control over the drilling path, ensuring the underground infrastructure is installed exactly where it’s needed.
We construct tunnels, shafts, and shore through rock or dirt. This capability is crucial for projects that require underground pathways.
