Underground Utility Contractor in Cicero, IL

Underground work on small lots

Small lots and close spacing change how a job is run. Equipment has to fit between buildings or along an alley, spoil has to be managed without blocking neighbors, and the excavation has to avoid the water, sewer, gas, electric and telecom lines that serve every property around it.

For a sewer lateral or water service, the first decision is where to dig. Exposing the line with hydro excavation can show its depth, material and condition at a chosen point, so the repair opening is no larger than it needs to be. For a new commercial service or a storm connection, the same care applies at a larger scale.

For industrial and commercial properties, we also provide hydro vacuum work for pits, sumps and catch basins.

Permits and one-call notice

Illinois asks excavators to contact JULIE before digging so that buried lines are marked. In a dense town, alley and street openings are common, and each one follows the conditions of the right-of-way owner for traffic, safety and pavement restoration. Let us know whether a permit has already been requested. On a shared lot line, the neighboring owner may also need to know when the work is planned.

Nearby communities include Forest Park, Forest View, Riverside, Oak Park, Stickney, Berwyn and Chicago. We serve any of these places as well.

When describing a Cicero job, mention whether the work is at the front of the lot or along the alley, and whether a neighboring property shares access. Those details shape where equipment can stand and how the excavation is protected.
