Commercial Site Utility Installation in Nashville and Middle Tennessee
Site & Subdivision Utilities

Commercial Site Utility Installation

Underground water, sewer, storm, fire and electrical systems for stores, offices, warehouses and industrial buildings.

A commercial building depends on a dense set of buried systems: domestic water, a fire line, sewer, storm drainage, electrical service and communications. They all enter the site, often through the same corner, and they have to cross each other without conflict.

We install commercial site utilities to the civil and MEP drawings: water and fire lines with vaults and valves, sewer with manholes and grease interceptors, storm drainage with inlets and detention structures, and conduit for power and communications. We coordinate with the general contractor, the utilities and the inspectors, and we work to the project schedule so the building crew can pour slabs and set footings on time.

Crossings are the hard part

With six systems in the same area, crossings and clearances are constant. We pothole, check elevations on the plans and raise conflicts early.

Stub-outs for the building

The plumber and electrician need clean stub-outs at the right locations and elevations. We build to the drawings and verify before backfilling.

Sequence with other trades

Underground work comes before slabs, paving and landscaping. We schedule ahead so those trades are not waiting on us or digging up our work.

Keeping the site open

A site on an existing property still has to function while new lines are installed. We plan traffic, access and shutdown windows with the owner so business is disrupted as little as possible.
