Underground Utility Contractor in Appleton, WI

Manufacturing buildings

Manufacturing buildings of every kind, depend on underground utilities that grow with their processes: water and fire services, process and sanitary drains, storm collection for roofs and yards, and conduit for heavy equipment. When a line is added, moved or replaced, the plant usually has to keep running.

Planning such work involves:

Drawings and rules

The plant's utility drawings and site procedures, because private plant lines are not marked by the one-call process.

Confirmation

Existing lines exposed with hydro excavation at every tie-in and crossing.

Timing

Tie-ins scheduled for shutdowns or slow periods, with temporary arrangements where needed.

Access

Yards and drives kept open, with crossings drilled where trucks must keep moving.

Maintenance

Pits, trench drains and storm structures cleaned with a vacuum truck.

We also handle water service, sewer lateral, storm and conduit work for homeowners, businesses and public owners in Appleton.
