Atlanta's Best Choice For Directional Boring
We are Atlanta's first choice for directional boring and trenchless utilities installation. We are fully licensed and insured and have been doing business in the metro Atlanta area for almost 30 years. It has been our privilege to work with some great people, including those at The ComTran group, Ansco & Associates, Media One, Benton Georgia Inc., the Georgia State Prison System, Lockheed Martin, The State of Georgia, including various government facilities.
While we have performed extensive work on many large infrastructure projects, our specialty is in precision boring for the Plumbing, Electrical and Security fields. We strive to stay up to date with the latest in "green" and minimally intrusive trenchless technologies. This enables us to complete jobs requiring an extreme level of precision that many others have called impossible.
As a locally owned and operated family business, we take pride not just in our work, but also in our reputation and good name. Please take a moment to get to know us better by visiting the About Us page.
While we primarily focus on smaller directional bores involving water line replacement, power or gas line installation, and fiber-optic cable placement, we offer a wide range of services in the underground utility construction field. Whether you are a Builder, Developer, General Contractor, Plumber, Electrician or Security Technician, check out our Services page to see how TruCraft can help you save time and money on your next project.
What we do
Have a project? Need some help? Give us a call.
In this day and age, working in construction is complicated. Deadlines are tighter, competition is tougher, and prices seem to be falling through the basement! If you are a construction professional, none of this is news to you. If you are finding it to be a challenge to maintain profitability, we are here to help! Our method of trenchless construction saves you time and money; enabling you to lower your bid while still making ends meet. How? Well to answer that, let us show you how our trenchless system differs from conventional utility construction techniques.
Directional boring is the latest in trenchless construction technology. Unlike jack and bore, directional boring does not require excavating large pits. A directional boring machine is a self-contained drill rig that can be driven into place and set up with almost no major excavation required. Once underground, the directional drill head can be steered in any direction: up, down, left or right to your desired target and depth. Being steerable is a major advantage that directional boring has over pneumatic "missels," or rod bore attachments. Depending upon the size of the machine and the soil makeup, a bore path can be longer than 500 feet or as short as a simple road or driveway crossing.
TruCraft, Inc. specializes in small (6" wide or less) directional boring. We are able to achieve a high level of precision and accuracy, including the placement of sewer lines on a rate of fall. And while small diameter bores are our specialty, we are fully capable of performing bores in excess of 12".
Below are some examples of jobs we have completed in the past.
Low voltage power installation
On this job, we had to install a conduit for low voltage power. This was to light up a sign in a neighborhood. We had to drill under the road and dodge existing utilities with little margin for error. We were able to complete the job and leave a happy customer.
Waterline Installation
We often work with plumbers. On this job we had to install a waterline in a cramped area. Our smaller machine allowed us to do so. The yard we were working in was beautifully landscaped and hardscaped. So we built cribbing to keep our machine up and not cause any damage. The install went smoothly and we made sure to clean up!
Fiber Optic Conduit installation
On this job we had to complete a series of shots along the side of the road. This was complicated because of many pre existing utilities. We utilized Ground penetrating radar along with good old fashion hand digging to safely complete this job without any mishaps
