Underground Utility Contractor in Kenosha, WI

Kenosha is the largest city in Kenosha County, with an estimated 99,578 residents (2024 Census estimate) on about 29 square miles of land.

Distribution centers and their utilities

Large distribution and logistics buildings sit on big paved sites with heavy truck traffic. Their underground systems follow a familiar pattern: a domestic water service and a large fire service, sanitary sewer from offices and restrooms, storm inlets and pipe across truck courts and parking, and conduit for power, lighting and gates.

When such a building is built, expanded or changes tenant, the underground work involves:

• the owner's civil plans and each utility's requirements for its connection;
• existing lines located through Diggers Hotline and the owner's records, and exposed with hydro excavation where new work crosses them;
• phasing to keep docks and truck lanes working, with crossings drilled where trucks must keep moving;
• inspection by each utility;
• pavement restored to a standard that carries trucks.

Storm inlets and structures on such sites collect sediment and can be cleaned with a vacuum truck.

We also handle water service, lateral, storm and conduit work for homeowners and smaller businesses in Kenosha.

Notice before excavation

Diggers Hotline is Wisconsin's one-call center under Wis. Stat. 182.0175. The law requires notice at least three working days before excavation and has no fixed ticket life; a new notice is required when work does not begin within 10 days of the scheduled start or pauses for more than 10 days.
