What Makes Boring in Marietta Different

Set the marketing aside. Marietta means Cobb County clay-and-granite with harder rock nearby — here is what shapes the bore.

Square-Town Historic Core

Marietta Square's brick streets and century-old storefronts sit over equally old utilities. New services go under the historic surface, never through it.

Red Clay Over Granite

Marietta sits on Cobb County Piedmont ground — red clay over granite, with the hard rock of the Kennesaw uplands nearby. We match tooling to clay-and-rock that changes across a single job.

Cobb's Contractor Hub

From the Battery corridor south to the Square, Marietta work is dense with GCs and trades — bore crews slot in as subs on live commercial sequences.

Permits & Locates Are Not Optional

City of Marietta for city right-of-way, Cobb County for county roads, and GDOT for the US-41/Cobb Parkway and Loop corridors. Georgia 811 locates are free and required by law before digging — we file the ticket and run our own GPR sweep on top of it.

How a Bore Actually Works

Six steps, in the order they happen on site.

1. Locate First

811 ticket plus our own GPR sweep — utilities marked before anything spins.

2. Plan the Path

Entry and exit pits, depth, and clearance from what is already down there.

3. Pilot Bore

A steerable head, tracked from the surface, corrected as it advances.

4. Ream

The pilot hole is enlarged to the diameter the product pipe needs.

5. Pullback

Conduit or pipe is pulled through in one continuous run.

6. Restore

Pits backfilled and compacted, surface restored — two pits, not an open cut across the site.

Who Is Actually Doing the Work

Boring Bros is run by brothers Aaron and Levi Cohen — you will usually be talking to an owner, not a call centre. Every crew on your job is a licensed, insured contractor (Boring Bros LLC, Florida Doc. L21000515203; certificate of insurance on request).

Recent Work From Our Crews

The kind of jobs Marietta contractors call us for — bore-and-trench work backing up generator installers, electricians, low-voltage crews and general contractors.

Underground conduit run for an EV charging installation

EV Charger Conduit

Underground conduit and pad infrastructure for EV charging installs, bored from the panel to the stall so the site is charge-ready without tearing up the lot.

Standby generator install with directionally bored gas and electric lines

Standby Generator Hookups

Meter-to-generator gas lines and panel-to-pad electrical conduit for generator installers — 35 to 150 ft bored under finished driveways so the unit gets set the same week.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes – most of our Marietta volume is subcontract work for generator installers, electrical and low-voltage contractors, and general contractors. We provide our certificate of insurance and licensing up front, coordinate with your PM on scheduling, and the bore shows up when the rest of your job needs it to.

Footage and product (pipe or conduit type and diameter), entry and exit constraints, and any utility prints or a site plan if you have them. With that we can usually turn a real number around the same day. No prints? Send the address and what you are installing and we will locate first.

In the public right-of-way, generally yes – City of Marietta for city right-of-way, Cobb County for county roads, and GDOT for the US-41/Cobb Parkway and Loop corridors. We can pull the permit or work under yours, and work entirely on private property often needs none. We will tell you which applies.

Cost is driven by footage, diameter, depth, soil or rock, and site access – not a flat per-foot number anyone can honestly quote sight-unseen. We are set up to be the affordable option, and contractors who send plans and footage typically get a same-day number. Quotes are free.

We run multiple crews, so a small shot and a larger commercial run can happen in the same week. Typical residential-scale bores are done in a day; road crossings and long runs are scheduled around permitting, which is usually the long pole – not the drilling.

Always. Georgia 811 is free and required by state law at least two full business days before digging. We pull the ticket and still run our own GPR sweep on top of it.
