The Problems Installing Utilities by Open-Cut Trenching

Selecting trenching methods for replacing or laying utilities like Water, Gas or Electricity, can cause significant disruption for residents and businesses.

Trenches in public areas can result in road closures, accidents, longer project times (which can mean a lack of utilities for individuals for longer periods), and inconvenience to pedestrians and commuters.

At EPS Trenchless Installations, we prioritise these considerations to deliver reliable, sustainable solutions that meet the needs of modern infrastructure projects. We use trenchless technologies like Horizontal Directional Drilling which minimises impact on daily life and the environment.

Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) has directional control that makes the system useful to the buried services and utility industries.

Modern utility projects rely heavily on horizontal directional drilling (HDD) for its unmatched precision in laying utility lines.

By utilising trenchless technology, the utility industry can achieve efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly installations essential for modern infrastructure demands. It has become the go-to choice for utility companies looking to modernise their operations and minimise disruptions.

Why Trenchless Technology can Benefit Utility Installation

Reduced Disruption

Horizontal directional drilling avoids surface disruption by navigating around obstacles and placing utility lines exactly where needed. Since the surface remains largely intact, there is minimal impact on traffic flow and public life.

Efficient Installation

When correctly planned, the installation and using the right equipment make it possible to install networks from small to large diameters over short to long distances safely and with minimal disruption to the surroundings.

Faster Project Completion

Projects can be completed quicker due to the streamlined process, which does not require extensive road closures or detours.
