Precision Horizontal Directional Drilling

Cinterra specializes in Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD), a trenchless solution for installing underground infrastructure. With eight full-time crews and drill rigs ranging from 10,000 lbs. to 40,000 lbs., we support the installation of power conduits, gas lines, telecommunications networks and water and sewer systems.
