Horizontal Directional Drilling in Mount Vernon — what matters locally
Around Mount Vernon's 1955 building period, laterals were often laid to suit a site layout that has since changed. Where a re-route makes more sense than following the original path, drilling creates a new one with no trench between entry and exit.
When Mount Vernon properties need horizontal directional drilling
- New sewer, water, gas or conduit installation where no line exists
- 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 Knox County

Answers
Horizontal Directional Drilling in Mount Vernon — FAQs
Can you drill under a driveway or road in Mount Vernon?
Routinely. Entry and exit points are the only disturbed ground. For anything in a Mount Vernon right-of-way we arrange the permits as part of the job.
Is drilling right for my sewer lateral?
For most Mount Vernon homeowners, no. Bursting is faster and cheaper for replacing an existing line. Drilling makes sense when there is no usable line to follow, or when you need to cross something.
How much does directional drilling cost?
There is no standard rate. Ohio's glacial soils can carry cobbles that deflect a drill head, so ground conditions matter as much as length. We assess before quoting.
