Horizontal Directional Drilling in Lafayette — what matters locally
In Lafayette's older streets, directional drilling earns its place where the original route is unusable — a line collapsed beyond bursting, or a lateral that was laid somewhere it should never have been.
It is also the method for crossings: under a mature tree that must stay, a historic walkway, or a road the city will not let you open.
When Lafayette properties need horizontal directional drilling
- Crossing under a road, driveway, parking lot or waterway
- Re-routing a line away from an unusable original path
- Protecting mature trees, historic paving or new hardscape
- Installing several utilities on one bore path
- Commercial and municipal work across Allen County

Answers
Horizontal Directional Drilling in Lafayette — FAQs
Can you drill under a driveway or road in Lafayette?
Yes, that is one of its core uses. Bores routinely pass beneath driveways, parking lots, roads and waterways with no surface disturbance between entry and exit. Work in a public right-of-way needs municipal permits and often traffic control, which we handle.
Is drilling right for my sewer lateral?
Usually not, and we would rather say so. Gravity sewers need consistent fall to the main, and holding precise grade over a long steered bore is demanding. For replacing an existing Lafayette lateral, pipe bursting follows the original grade and normally costs less.
How much does directional drilling cost?
It is quoted per project rather than from a price list. Bore length, diameter, depth, soil conditions, utility congestion and site access all move the number substantially. We survey the Lafayette site before quoting — anyone pricing a bore sight unseen is guessing.
