Underground Utility Contractor in Florissant, MO

Florissant is the largest city in St. Louis County, with an estimated 51,290 residents (2024 Census estimate) on about 13 square miles of land.

Small homes, close neighbors

On residential streets where houses stand close together, an underground repair at one home is never far from the next. Equipment parks on the street, the excavation may be near a neighbor's fence or service lines, and a shared driveway can complicate access.

A neighborly approach to such a job:

Locate everything

Missouri 811 marks the public facilities; the homeowner points out private ones such as sprinkler or lighting lines; hydro excavation confirms lines close to the dig.

Dig only where needed

The problem is pinned down first, with a camera inspection or tracing, so the opening is no larger than the repair needs.

Keep access open

Shared drives and the street are kept usable, and neighbors can be told when work will happen.

Restore well

Backfill is compacted in layers so the patch does not settle, and the lawn or drive is put back as agreed.

The same care applies to water services, sewer laterals, storm connections and conduit. We also take on larger work in Florissant for businesses and public owners.

Notice before excavation

Missouri 811 receives locate requests under RSMo 319.010 to 319.050. The law (RSMo 319.026) sets the notice at no less than two and no more than ten working days, and a ticket is valid for 21 calendar days from the start date.
