TRENCHLESS & DIRECTIONAL BORING DIVISION

Missile Boring in DuPage County.

A pneumatic piercing tool drives a small bore under your driveway, walk, or patio so a short utility run crosses without trenching the whole length. You keep the slab and the lawn — we work from two small pits, not an open cut.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Every visit, every time.

Bores under driveways & walks

The mole crosses under concrete and asphalt — no saw-cut, no patch seam.

Under mature landscaping

Pass beneath established lawns and beds so the planting stays intact.

Short utility crossings

Conduit, water lines, and gas sleeves pulled through on a single short run.

Launch + receiving pits only

We dig one small entry pit and one exit pit — the run between stays buried.

Line-and-grade check

We confirm direction and depth on every bore before we pull the line through.

HOW IT WORKS

Our process — 4 steps.

  1. Locate & plan the bore

    811 utility locate first, then we set the bore path, line, and grade.

  2. Itemized estimate

    Free, within 48 hours. You see the run, the pits, and the restoration.

  3. Drive the bore

    The mole drives across; we pull the line or sleeve through behind it.

  4. Restore + walkthrough

    We backfill the launch and receiving pits, then walk it with a photo log.

WHY SUNSET FOR MISSILE BORING

Three reasons it's worth the call.

No torn-up driveway

We bore under the slab instead of cutting through it — minimal surface disruption.

Locate before we dig

Every bore starts with an 811 locate — we know what is down there first.

One crew, one contact

Same crew start to finish, family-run since 2000, licensed and insured, EN·ES.

HOW PRICING WORKS

No hidden math.

Pricing on DuPage properties typically depends on three things:

Run length, depth & ground
Linear feet of the bore or trench, the required depth, and the soil, rock, and water-table conditions that decide which method fits.
Pipe diameter & material
Conduit or pipe size, the material (PVC, HDPE, clay), how many runs go in, and whether joints are fused or coupled.
Site access, locating & restoration
Entry and exit pit access around driveways and landscaping, utility locating (811) and potholing before we dig, and surface restoration after.
