Charter Oak’s Vermeer D23x30DR S3 horizontal directional drill at work on a jobsite

Charter Oak is an experienced provider of horizontal directional drilling (HDD), a trenchless technique for connecting underground pipes, wires, cables, and ducts.

Our highly trained operators use specialized HDD equipment to bore a precise path underground, avoiding other utilities in the area. Pipes or cables can then be routed through that pathway, and the pipe is pulled back to the drill machine.

Horizontal directional drilling is the least intrusive way to place conduit, fiber, and electrical distribution cables, as it minimizes damage to existing infrastructure and the environment. Because there is minimal disruption on the surface, this method is a great choice for sensitive ecosystems, high-traffic roads, and landscaped areas. It minimizes the need to close roads, re-route traffic, and restore the work area back to its former condition, so your project can be completed more efficiently and more cost-effectively.
