Underground Utility Contractor in Georgia
Blackstone Utilities provides underground utility construction across Georgia, from metro Atlanta to the coast. We install fiber optic cable and underground power conduit, install and repair water mains, sewer lines and storm sewer, and provide hydro vacuum services, excavation and trenching, directional drilling and emergency repair. Our headquarters in Huntley, Illinois, plans and dispatches every Georgia job.
Georgia work, one site at a time
Atlanta's suburbs, the coastal cities and the inland towns produce very different jobs, so we do not work from a standard package. We ask about the site, the line and the owner, and the scope follows from the answers.
Rights-of-way are a frequent part of Georgia jobs. Work in a public street or along a state route involves the owner of that right-of-way as well as the owner of the line, and both have a say in how the trench is opened and restored.
Typical Georgia jobs
- A county or city water system replacing a run of main or a set of valves.
- A developer bringing water, sanitary sewer and storm drainage into a new commercial site.
- A plant that needs a pit or sump cleaned out with a vacuum truck.
- A property owner whose sewer lateral or water service has failed.
Trenching, drilling or vacuum excavation
Where the surface can be opened, a trench is usually the most direct route. Where it cannot, because a road, a driveway or a creek is in the way, directional drilling carries the line underneath. Where other utilities crowd the work area, hydro excavation exposes them first so they can be protected.
