Scope of Our Underground Construction Services
The key to the success of Capri Engineering Pipeline Construction is our versatility. Whether the project is for the residential, commercial, or public sector, we’re geared to provide the perfect solution. Our professional services include:
- Utility Tunneling
Real skill is needed in the design and construction of trenchless tunneling, which we excavate by hand in some cases or mechanically without disturbing the ground surface.
These utility tunnels, also known as utility corridors, are vitally important in preventing sewage exposure, disruptions in water supply, and elimination of electricity cable interference. They carry essentials such as electricity, steam, water supply pipes, and sewer pipes and need to be accessible, secure, and sustainable.
- Pipeline Installation
Capri Engineering in San Mateo offers a dedicated team of highly skilled and qualified pipeline constructors. We design and install seamless systems that will provide an unobstructed flow of all the essential utilities to your home, office, or commercial property and eliminate blockages and leaks.
- Underground Tunnel Repair
Once installed, tunnels and pipelines can be affected by age, ground movement, and other external factors, so regular maintenance is essential. We use the latest techniques, such as hydro-demolition, dry shotcrete confinement, ground anchoring, and state-of-the-art equipment to address and repair any issues that may arise.
- Potholing
Also known as test holing, we use this technique, which involves digging small holes using air or hydro vacuum, to locate underground utilities and cables that may have shifted and been damaged. We do this without affecting the surrounding infrastructure and save you a fortune in terms of time and potential repair costs.
- Directional Boring
Our horizontal directional drilling services use the latest technology to install power, fiber optics, gas, water, or sewer lines under man-made obstacles like roadways and sidewalks. We achieve this while minimizing the impact on traffic, landscapes, or property and prioritizing the safety of the property, our clients, and employees.
- Joint Trench Coordination
With a range of service providers utilizing the pipeline to provide telecommunications, gas, electricity, water, and sewer lines to your property, we have the knowledge and local presence to coordinate them all, saving time, space, and money to ensure the best possible utility solution.
- Experienced Crew
At Capri Engineering, we know San Mateo like the back of our hand, having been the area’s leading underground construction specialists for almost two decades. When it comes to local knowledge and expertise, backed up by regular OSHA-authorized safety training, we’re unmatched!

This infrastructure includes:
- Tunnels

How Do I Prepare for Underground Construction Services?
Preparation for underground construction services depends on the scale of the project. In general, as the property owner, you need to:
- Clear the site of any barriers or obstructions that will impede construction, such as debris, rocks, or tree roots.
- Mark out the boundaries.
- Secure the property to ensure safety during construction.
- Ensure that the property is easily accessible to the construction team.
Other steps to take include mapping existing utilities, ground compacting, and termite control, but you can leave these to our experts.
