Culvert & Driveway Boring
Under the Driveway, Without Touching the Driveway
Need a pipe, wire, or conduit on the other side of a driveway, road, or sidewalk? We bore underneath it. No saw-cutting, no cold patch that never quite matches.
What we install
- Driveway crossings
- Road crossings
- Culvert installations
- Sidewalk and patio crossings
Why not just dig a trench?
A trench means digging up your lawn, backfilling, hauling topsoil, reseeding, and months of waiting for grass to grow back — plus cutting through anything in the path. We bore underneath instead: two small holes, done in a day, and usually right in the same price range once you add up what the trench really costs. And where a deeper trench costs more, a deeper bore doesn't.

Will boring crack or settle my driveway?
No. The drill runs well below the surface at a depth matched to the crossing, so the driveway above is never disturbed.
How does it work without digging?
A small pit on each side of the driveway. The drill steers underneath, we pull the pipe or conduit back through, and we close up the pits. Crossings are done in a day or less.
What does it cost?
Short crossings are some of the simplest work we do, and boring usually beats saw-cutting, excavation, and a new asphalt patch on price. Free estimates, no obligation.
Other lines we bury
Tell us where the line goes.
Free estimates, no obligation. We usually schedule within 3 days of MISS DIG marking, and most jobs are done in a day or less. Ground work in Michigan stops when the ground freezes, so if this is on your list for the year, the schedule fills front to back.
