Our Underground Electrical Process
Free Site Assessment
We visit your property, measure the run, check your panel capacity, and identify the best route for the underground conduit. Clear pricing before any digging.
Permits & Utility Locates
We pull all required electrical permits and coordinate utility locates (811) to ensure safe digging. No shortcuts on safety.
Trenching & Conduit
We trench to the required depth (typically 18-24 inches for residential), install schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit, and pull properly sized wire.
Connections & Inspection
We make all connections at both ends — panel/subpanel and equipment. Then a third-party inspection verifies everything is safe and to code.
