A longtime customer in Country Club of the South, GA, needed a water line replaced between the street and the house. Davis & Sons Plumbing used directional boring to install the new line without digging a continuous trench across the yard. After the work was complete, the crew restored the sod and pine straw so carefully that the customer did not realize the replacement had already been finished.
| Field | Entry |
|---|---|
| Location | Country Club of the South, GA |
| Property type | Residential property |
| Core issue | Water line between the street and house needed replacement while preserving the yard’s established sod and landscaping |
| Service provided | Directional boring and water line replacement |
| Route | Street to the house |
| Outcome | Water line replaced with directional boring and yard restored |
The customer needed the water line between the street and the house replaced. The challenge was completing that route while minimizing disturbance to the established sod and the landscaped bed near the house.
Near the street, the crew cut out a square section of sod and placed it on a tarp. Near the house, the crew pulled the pine straw away from the bed and dug a second hole.
Directional boring allowed the crew to replace the water line without digging a continuous trench between the street and the house. Working from two access points minimized disturbance to the established sod and the landscaped bed, making it easier to restore the property after installation.
The crew directionally bored between the opening near the street and the opening next to the house. After boring the route, the crew pulled the replacement water line back through it.

After installing the line, the crew raked the pine straw back into place near the house. The square of sod was returned to its original location, tamped down, and watered.
After the work was finished, the customer called because they believed the crew had not arrived yet. The crew explained that the water line replacement was already complete. The customer’s reaction showed how little visible disruption the work left behind.
Davis & Sons Plumbing replaced the water line from the street to the house using directional boring and restored the two access areas. The project was completed without digging a continuous trench across the yard.
