Underground Utility Contractor in Albany, GA

Blackstone Utilities is an underground utility contractor serving Albany, Georgia. The work covers fiber optic installation, power conduit, water main and sewer line installation and repair, storm sewer, excavation and trenching, directional drilling, hydro vacuum services and emergency utility repair. We plan and dispatch Albany work from our headquarters in Huntley, Illinois.

Albany is the largest city in Dougherty County, with an estimated 66,705 residents (2024 Census estimate) on about 55 square miles of land.

Plants, warehouses and other industrial sites

Processing plants, warehouses and other industrial sites have underground needs that differ from homes and offices. Wash-down areas need drains and pits; process water needs its own lines; large paved yards need storm systems; equipment needs conduit; and many of these structures need regular cleaning.

Hydro vacuum services handle much of the maintenance: emptying pits, sumps, trench drains and separators so they can be inspected and kept working, and removing material as the owner's requirements allow. Hydro excavation uses the same kind of truck to expose buried lines safely before new work.

When something needs repair or extension, the work follows the site's own rules and drawings: private lines are traced from records and confirmed in the field, tie-ins are timed around operations, and pavement is restored to carry the site's traffic. Long runs across yards may be trenched, while crossings of busy lanes may be drilled.

We also handle service line, lateral, storm and conduit work for homeowners and small businesses in Albany.

Notice before digging

Under the Georgia Underground Facility Protection Act, Georgia 811 must receive a locate request before excavation. Notice must be given two to eight business days ahead, counted from 7:00 a.m. on the next business day, and the ticket lasts 30 calendar days (O.C.G.A. Title 25, Chapter 9). Private plant lines are usually not marked by the one-call process.
