What to Expect: The Process
Here is how we ensure a safe and professional job:
-
Locates & Safety: We always coordinate with BC 1 Call to identify existing underground lines before we break ground. Safety is our #1 priority.
-
Trench Bedding: We don’t just dig a hole. We ensure the trench is bedded with the correct sand or crush to protect your pipes and prevent future settling.
-
Backfilling & Compaction: Once the utility is inspected, we backfill in "lifts" and compact the soil to ensure your driveway or lawn doesn't sink later.
-
Site Restoration: We aim to leave the site as clean as (or cleaner than) we found it.
