Utility Installation Questions

Burial depth requirements vary by utility type and local codes. Water lines typically require 18-36" depth depending on frost line. Electrical conduit usually requires 18-24" depth. We ensure all installations meet local code requirements.

We handle the excavation, trenching, and pipe/conduit installation. For water lines, we can complete the entire installation. For electrical work, we install the conduit and coordinate with licensed electricians for the wiring.

We work carefully to minimize landscape disturbance. Trenching creates a narrow excavation that we backfill and compact properly. While some surface restoration may be needed, we keep the affected area as small as possible.
