With underground boring services, there is no need for extensive digging or trenching, resulting in minimal disruption to the environment and a more cost-effective solution.

FIBER:

Help your business get online or get fiber direct to your home with our fiber installation services. Fiber is the preferred structured cabling because it can run further and at faster speeds than typical cable.

Fiber cables are installed to the home in the same way that telephone and Internet wires are installed, but can be installed in the ground, underwater, or in the air. Fiber installation is a much faster method of installation compared to above ground work, because there is no need for extensive digging. 

There is also no need for additional equipment such as cranes and excavators that are used in traditional methods. This significantly speeds up the process and means that users can take advantage of their new infrastructure sooner without the disruption to your neighborhood.With VIKOR’s turn-key services and our experienced technicians, we are able to help build your network from beginning to end.

Once installed, we can also maintain and upgrade your system as needed. Our services include aerial and directional underground boring

Frequently Asked Questions

How does directional boring work?

Horizontal directional drilling is a means by which underground utilities are installed in both urban and rural areas. Drilling has a much smaller impact on grass, sidewalk, asphalt, and concrete on the surface than other utility installation methods such as trenching or plowing. A boring machine drills underneath the surface from a small entry pit up to a predetermined exit pit. From there, a conduit is attached to the drill head for pull back to the entry pit. With the utilization of a backreamer, one or several pipes can be pulled the length of the drill shot.

How far can directional drilling reach?

On average, our directional drilling machines can go up to 500-600 feet.

What are the uses for directional boring?

Directional boring, also sometimes referred to as horizontal boring, is used for a lot of different projects. Adding in new sewer lines, utility and underground fiber installations, and more. It can be used to avoid geological issues, move through bedrock, and even be used for offshore drilling.

How much does directional boring cost?

Directional boring costs differ depending on several factors. First, is the area's new development or existing infrastructure. Second, is the material of what is in the ground. Is the area lush soil, clay, or bedrock? Finally, it can also depend on the number of utilities buried. Feel free to contact us for a quote.
