Utility Trenching and Excavation

Utility Trenching in Waco

Running a new water, sewer, gas, electrical, or drainage line means a clean, safe trench. Comptonpolicegangs digs utility trenches across Waco with proper bedding, careful backfill, and the trench protection the depth requires. We line up the run, keep the grade consistent for gravity lines, and restore the surface when the pipe is in.

Why Trench Safety Matters

A trench is more dangerous than it looks. On any cut 5 feet deep or more, OSHA requires a protective system, either sloping the walls, benching them, or setting a trench box, and a competent person has to inspect the excavation daily. We follow those rules on every job, not because they are convenient but because a collapse is not something you fix later. That discipline is part of why our clients trust us.

Our Process

We call 811 first so every existing line is located and marked, then dig to line and grade with the right bedding under the pipe. Backfill goes in and gets compacted so the trench does not sink over the winter. We handle short residential runs off Herring Avenue and longer commercial pulls the same careful way, and we leave the surface ready to finish.
