Daylighting buried utilities

Safely expose gas, electric, fiber, water, and sewer lines to verify their exact location and depth before any adjacent digging or trenching begins.

Cut precise vertical test holes to confirm utility positions for surveys, engineering, and directional-drilling bore paths without risking a strike.

Slot trenching

Dig narrow, clean-walled trenches for conduit, cable, and small-diameter pipe with minimal surface disruption and less restoration than open-cut methods.

Utility pole and sign installation

Excavate holes for poles, posts, and foundations in congested corridors where mechanical augers could hit unmarked lines.
