Frequently Asked Questions About Utility Extensions
What utilities can you extend?
We handle underground extensions for water, sewer, septic, storm, gas, and electrical lines. Our team manages the entire process from excavation and trenching to backfill and site restoration.
Are permits required for utility extensions?
Yes, most utility extensions require permits, especially if they cross public land or existing utility lines. We handle all necessary permitting and inspections to ensure compliance with local regulations.
How deep do you dig for utility lines?
The required depth depends on the utility type and local building codes. Typically, water lines are buried at 36 inches, and sewer lines are trenched 3–10 feet deep, while electrical lines are buried to 42 inches and gas lines are buried up to 30 inches, or according to code for safety and protection.
Do you handle the site restoration after utility trenching?
Yes, we perform full site restoration after the utility extension is complete. This includes backfilling, compacting the soil, and restoring landscaping where necessary. This will be a separate scope itemized on our quote and is optional.
Can you extend utilities for both residential and commercial projects?
Absolutely. We provide utility extension services for homes, businesses, new developments, and public infrastructure projects.
What happens if you encounter existing utilities during excavation?
We perform detailed site evaluations and call 811 before digging to locate all existing utilities. If unexpected lines are found, we follow strict safety protocols to avoid damage and adjust the plan accordingly.
