Underground Electrical & Power

Generator and EV Charger Trenching

Trenches, conduit and pads for standby generators, EV chargers, hot tubs and outbuildings, so your electrician can finish the job quickly.

More homes now need power in places the original wiring never reached: a detached garage, a charger post at the end of a drive, a backup generator on the far side of the house, a workshop, a pool or a hot tub. Getting power there means trenching.

We dig the route from the panel area to the new equipment, install conduit and pull boxes, pour or set a pad for a generator or charger and stub up conduit where your electrician needs it. We keep the trench clear of other utilities, mark the route and restore the surface, so the electrician arrives to a finished path.

Plan with your electrician

The panel location, conductor size and distance determine the conduit size and number of runs. We build what the electrician specifies and avoid guesswork.

Pads and posts

Generators and chargers need a level pad or a post set in concrete. We build them to the manufacturer and electrician requirements so equipment sits properly.

Under drives and walks

Boring under a driveway or patio saves concrete and cleanup. We choose between boring and cutting on each job.

Plan for the next device

An EV charger today may become two chargers tomorrow. Adding a spare conduit while the trench is open costs very little compared with digging again.

Questions

Generator and EV Trenching FAQ

Do you install the generator or charger?

We prepare the trench, conduit and pad. Equipment setting and wiring are done by your electrician or the dealer.

How far can power run from the house?

Distance affects wire size and conduit. Your electrician sizes the system, and we build the route.

Can I bury conduit myself?

Homeowners sometimes do, but depth, bedding and inspection rules apply. A professional trench helps the work pass the first time.

Will the trench damage my lawn?

It will disturb it, and we restore it. Boring can reduce the damage where it fits.

Should I add a spare conduit?

Usually yes. It is a small addition that saves a future excavation.
