Horizontal Directional Drilling in Shaker Heights — what matters locally
In Shaker Heights'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 Shaker Heights properties need horizontal directional drilling
- New sewer, water, gas or conduit installation where no line exists
- Crossing under a road, driveway, parking lot or waterway
- Protecting mature trees, historic paving or new hardscape
- Installing several utilities on one bore path
- Commercial and municipal work across Cuyahoga County

Answers
Horizontal Directional Drilling in Shaker Heights — FAQs
Can you drill under a driveway or road in Shaker Heights?
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 Shaker Heights lateral, pipe bursting follows the original grade and normally costs less.
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.
