Horizontal Directional Drilling

Trenchless Technology for Modern Infrastructure

Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) is a trenchless method of installing underground utilities such as pipes, conduits, and cables in a shallow arc along a prescribed bore path by using a surface-launched drilling rig with minimal impact on the surrounding area.

Joseph Engineering's HDD services provide a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional open-cut trenching. Our experienced operators and modern equipment allow us to complete installations under roads, driveways, landscaping, and other obstacles without the need for extensive excavation.
