UTILITY WORK

Utility work is an important part of many excavation and property improvement projects. Water, sewer, gas, electric, communication lines, drainage systems, and other utilities can run beneath the ground, often where their exact location isn't visible.

Broad Excavating combines proper planning, professional locating equipment, experience, and careful excavation to work safely around existing utilities and prepare for new installations or improvements. We give every project the attention it requires.

KNOWING WHAT'S BELOW BEFORE WE DIG

Knowing what’s underground before digging is essential to completing a project safely, efficiently, and without costly surprises.

Striking an improperly located utility line can cause service interruptions, water main breaks, property damage, or dangerous situations. This could not only be an expensive mistake, but it can quickly turn into an emergency situation. Hiring the right team can make all the difference.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Have questions about your excavation project? Here are answers to some of the questions we hear most often.

Before excavation begins, underground utilities are properly identified and located. Broad Excavating uses professional hi-tech locating equipment that few companies have access to. Proper planning, locating, and an experienced operator are important parts of preparing for any excavation project.
Yes. Working around existing utilities is a common but very important part of excavation and utility work. Our experience, equipment, and locating capabilities allow us to identify potential conflicts and plan excavation accordingly. The specific approach depends on the type, location, depth, and condition of the existing utility. Even when a utility is properly located and carefully uncovered, the condition of the existing line can be an additional factor.
Broad Excavating provides excavation and trenching associated with many utility projects. Depending on the specific utility and project requirements, we can coordinate with the utility provider to provide this service.
If an unexpected or previously unidentified utility is encountered, excavation would typically stop in that area until the utility can be properly identified, and the appropriate next steps determined. We take the time to identify an unknown line, which can help prevent unnecessary damage, service interruptions, and potentially hazardous situations.
Absolutely. Every property and project is unlike the last. When it comes to underground utility requirements can vary based on the property's layout, existing infrastructure, and the type of work being planned. Broad Excavating can help evaluate the excavation and utility work involved, identify potential challenges, and determine what services may be needed to properly prepare the site. For projects requiring specialized engineering, permitting, or utility-provider work, we can also help identify what additional approvals may be required.
