Services
Trenching
Our trenching services create precise underground channels for utilities, pipes, and conduits. We use specialized equipment like chain trenchers to dig narrow, deep trenches while maintaining soil integrity. Projects range from 10-foot residential installations to 10,000-foot industrial projects, with equipment selection based on soil composition and depth requirements.
Dry Utility Boring
This service installs underground conduits for electrical, communication, and utility lines without open trenching. We employ horizontal boring equipment to create pathways beneath obstacles while maintaining surface structures. Applications include APS/SRP electrical installations, CenturyLink/Cox fiber optics, and South West Gas pipeline projects across Arizona.
Excavation
Our excavation services prepare sites for construction using excavators and backhoes. We handle large-scale earth removal for commercial developments and smaller residential projects. The work includes grading, foundation digging, and utility trenching while adhering to blue stake underground utility markings to prevent damage to existing infrastructure.
Sewer Repipe
This service replaces aging sewer lines using trenchless technology and traditional excavation methods. We install new pipes for residential and commercial properties while minimizing landscape disruption. The process includes locating existing utilities, removing damaged pipes, and installing durable replacement systems with proper compaction and backfill.
Tight Access Drilling
Specialized drilling for restricted areas using compact equipment like mini excavators and skid steers. Ideal for urban settings, backyard installations, and existing infrastructure zones. We maintain precision in confined spaces while ensuring safety compliance and minimal property disturbance during utility installations or repairs.
