Trenching, conduit and pad work for the underground power service that feeds your home, shop or building, ready for the utility and your electrician.
Overhead lines are on the way out for a good reason. Buried service survives storms, keeps views clear and removes the risk of limbs and ice taking the power out. Making the switch, or starting new with underground service, calls for good trenching and careful conduit work long before anyone energizes a wire.
We trench the route from the utility connection point to the building, install the conduit the utility and your electrician specify, set pull boxes and stub the conduit up at both ends. Final connections to the utility system are made by the utility, and wiring inside and at the meter is done by a qualified electrician. Our job is to deliver a trench and conduit that passes inspection the first time.
The power company defines the route, depth and materials for its side, and the electrician covers the wiring. We coordinate with both so the trench is ready when each of them arrives.
Conduit needs a minimum cover and gentle sweeps so cable can be pulled later. Tight bends and low spots cause pulling problems and water traps, so we plan the layout before cutting.
Plastic warning tape above the conduit protects the line from the next person to dig. We add it, and record the route so you know where the line runs.
A quick call between us and your electrician avoids delays. We confirm the conduit size, the number of runs and where the stub-ups go, so the wire pull is routine.
