Our primary service

Utility potholing is what we do.

Potholing is our core service. When the scope requires it, we use hydro excavation as the controlled method for exposing utilities with care.

01 / PRIMARY

Utility Potholing

Expose targeted utility crossings so crews can confirm where lines are located, how deep they are, and what conditions exist in the field.

02

Utility Exposure

Focused daylighting around existing lines when a project needs clear access and dependable field information.

03

Hydro Excavation

Available as a supporting excavation method when the location, material, or utility conditions make it appropriate.

Plan & profile potholing

Potholing for plan and profile work.

When a project requires verified field information for plan and profile drawings, we expose selected utilities so their location and depth can be confirmed in the field.

01 / FIELD DATA

Expose the target

We pothole at designated locations to uncover the utility and establish actual field conditions.

02

Confirm elevation

Visible utility depth and position can provide useful information for design and coordination.

03

Support the plans

Give project teams field-verified information to help support plan and profile development.
