Trenchless and Directional Drilling
Explained

Trenchless drilling allows utilities to be installed underground without open excavation. This approach reduces disruption, lowers total project costs, and shortens timelines compared to traditional trenching.

For projects under roads, buildings, or developed areas, trenchless drilling is often the only practical solution. Wattco applies this method with experience, precision, and respect for the surrounding environment.

Common Trenching Utilities Challenges When Building

  • Damaging roads, sidewalks, or landscaping that require costly restoration

  • Long project timelines caused by open trench excavation and surface repairs

  • High total project costs from demolition, backfill, and repaving

  • Limited access under existing structures or obstacles

  • Safety risks for traffic, pedestrians, and nearby properties

  • Aging infrastructure failures that require fast repair without major disruption
