You’re not looking to tear up your driveway or rip out mature landscaping just to run a new water line. That’s the problem with traditional excavation—it costs you twice. Once for the installation, and again to fix everything we destroyed getting the job done.
Trenchless directional drilling in Levittown, NY changes that. We bore underground using precision equipment that creates a small entry and exit point. Everything in between—your driveway, walkway, garden beds, even that tree you planted ten years ago—stays untouched.
You get the utility installation you need without the headache of restoration work. No hauling in topsoil. No re-seeding grass. No waiting weeks for contractors to patch asphalt. The job gets done faster, costs less overall, and your property looks the same when we leave as it did when we arrived.
Allied All City has been handling underground utility work in Nassau County since 1983. We’re a family-owned operation, which means when you call, you’re talking to people who actually care about the outcome—not a call center three states away.
We don’t subcontract the work. Our crew shows up with the equipment, does the job, and answers your questions on-site. We’re licensed and insured throughout Nassau and Suffolk counties, and we’ve been in good standing with local plumbing departments and consumer affairs for over 40 years.
Levittown’s older neighborhoods mean tight lots, mature trees, and underground obstacles you can’t always predict. We’ve worked here long enough to know what to expect—and how to handle it when plans need adjusting.
First, we locate existing utilities using detection equipment. You don’t want surprises underground, and neither do we. Once we map out what’s already there, we mark entry and exit points based on where your new line needs to run.
Next, we use a horizontal directional drilling rig to bore a pilot hole underground. The drill head follows a predetermined path and depth, guided by locating technology. This lets us steer around obstacles, curve under driveways, or go beneath areas where digging isn’t an option.
After the pilot hole is complete, we pull the new utility line—whether it’s water, gas, or electrical conduit—back through the bored path. The line gets installed at the right depth and grade without disturbing the surface. We clean up the small entry and exit points, test the line, and you’re done. Most residential jobs wrap up in a day.

This method works for water line directional drilling in Levittown, NY, trenchless gas line installation, electrical conduit, and even fiber optic or cable lines. If it needs to run underground and you want to avoid tearing up your property, we can likely handle it with directional drilling.
Levittown’s soil conditions vary—some areas have dense clay, others have rock closer to the surface. Traditional digging in rocky soil means jackhammers, time, and labor costs that add up fast. Directional drilling equipment bores through rock and clay without the same level of disruption or expense.
You also deal with fewer permits compared to open-cut excavation, especially if the installation crosses under a road or public right-of-way. Less permitting means less waiting and fewer bureaucratic delays. The process is quieter, faster, and doesn’t block off streets or driveways for extended periods.
Because the installation is more precise, the lines often last longer. There’s less settling, fewer weak points, and better protection from surface activity. You’re not just avoiding a mess today—you’re getting a more durable installation overall.
Yes. That’s exactly what trenchless directional drilling is designed for.
We bore underneath your driveway using a drill that stays completely underground. You’ll see a small entry point on one side and an exit point on the other, but the driveway itself doesn’t get touched. No sawing through asphalt. No patching. No waiting for a paving crew to come back and fix what got torn up.
This is especially useful in Levittown where driveways are often older and any cut means you’re looking at a repair that may not match the original surface. With directional drilling, your driveway stays intact and the water line gets installed at the proper depth and grade. The whole process typically takes a day, and you can use your driveway the same day we finish.
Upfront, directional drilling can cost slightly more than open-cut trenching. But when you factor in what you’re not paying for, it almost always comes out cheaper overall.
With traditional excavation, you’re paying for the digging, the installation, and then all the restoration work—new sod, topsoil, driveway repair, re-grading, sometimes even tree removal. You might also lose time if the work shuts down access to your property or disrupts your business. Directional drilling skips all of that. The installation is faster, there’s no restoration work, and you’re back to normal the same day.
The exact cost depends on the length of the run, soil conditions, and what type of line you’re installing. We offer free consultations where we assess your property and give you a clear number. No surprises, no upselling—just a straightforward estimate based on what the job actually requires.
We handle water lines, gas lines, electrical conduit, sewer laterals, and communication lines like fiber optic or cable. If it runs underground and needs to get from point A to point B without disturbing what’s on the surface, directional drilling can handle it.
Water line directional drilling in Levittown, NY is one of the most common requests we get—especially when the existing line runs under a driveway or landscaped area. Trenchless gas line installation is another frequent job, particularly for properties adding a gas connection for the first time or replacing old steel lines.
The method works for both residential and commercial properties. We’ve installed lines under parking lots, across lawns, beneath roadways, and through areas where digging would mean cutting through tree roots or disrupting drainage systems. As long as the soil conditions allow for boring and there’s a clear path, we can make it work.
Most residential jobs in Levittown finish in one day. That includes locating existing utilities, setting up the drill, boring the path, pulling the new line through, and cleaning up.
Larger commercial projects or longer runs might take two days, but you’re still looking at a fraction of the time traditional excavation would require. Open-cut trenching means digging, shoring, installing, backfilling, compacting, and then scheduling restoration work that might not happen for days or weeks. Directional drilling compresses all of that into a single, streamlined process.
The timeline also depends on soil conditions and whether we hit rock or unexpected obstacles. Levittown’s underground can be unpredictable, but our equipment is built to handle variations without major delays. We give you a realistic timeframe during the consultation, and we stick to it unless something truly unusual comes up.
Yes. In fact, rocky soil is one of the situations where directional drilling really proves its value.
Traditional excavation in rocky soil means breaking through with heavy equipment, jackhammers, or even blasting in extreme cases. It’s slow, loud, expensive, and tears up everything in the path. Directional drilling equipment is designed to bore through rock using a hardened drill head and steady, controlled pressure. It’s not fast, but it’s far more efficient than digging.
Levittown has pockets of dense soil and rock, especially in older sections where the ground has been compacted for decades. We’ve worked in these conditions enough to know what equipment to bring and how to adjust the drilling angle or speed based on what we’re encountering underground. Rocky soil doesn’t stop the job—it just requires the right approach and the right crew.
It depends on what you’re installing and where the line runs, but trenchless methods typically require fewer permits than open-cut excavation.
If the installation stays entirely on your property and doesn’t cross public right-of-way, you may only need a standard plumbing or utility permit. If the line crosses under a road or sidewalk, you’ll likely need approval from the town or county. Directional drilling makes that process easier because there’s no road closure, no traffic disruption, and no need to coordinate with multiple departments for extended access.
We handle permit coordination as part of the job. We know what Levittown and Nassau County require, and we make sure everything is filed and approved before we start. You’re not left figuring out paperwork or waiting on approvals—we take care of it so the job moves forward without delays.
