Underground Utility Contractor in Stonecrest, GA

Stonecrest is the largest city in DeKalb County, with an estimated 61,015 residents (2024 Census estimate) on about 37 square miles of land.

New construction and steady maintenance

Where new development is filling in land around established neighborhoods, underground requests come in two streams. One is new construction: commercial pads, apartment communities and subdivisions that need complete utility packages before they can open. The other is the steady maintenance of what is already there: failed water services, laterals with roots, storm pipes that have separated.

For new construction, the work follows the approved civil plans: storm and sanitary sewer first, to their grades; water mains, services and fire lines next; conduit before paving. Each utility inspects its own connection. Crossings of existing roads are often drilled to keep traffic moving.

For maintenance, each job starts with finding the line and the problem. A camera inspection or a leak investigation narrows it down; a Georgia 811 locate marks the lines around it; hydro excavation exposes the line without damaging its neighbors; the repair or replacement is made and the surface restored.

In Stonecrest, we work for developers, builders, general contractors, property managers, homeowners and public owners.

Georgia 811 before excavation

Georgia 811 receives locate requests under the Georgia Underground Facility Protection Act (O.C.G.A. Title 25, Chapter 9). A locate request must go in at least two and at most eight business days before excavation, counting from 7:00 a.m. on the next business day, and a ticket is good for 30 calendar days.
