Why Choose DIG Industries for Trenching?

Wisconsin Depth Requirements

We understand Wisconsin's frost depth requirements and burial codes for all utility types. Water lines must be below the frost line (typically 5-6 feet in our region), sewer lines need proper slope, and electric must meet NEC depth standards. We ensure every trench meets or exceeds code requirements to prevent freeze-ups and service failures.

Safe Utility Location

Before any trenching work begins, we coordinate with Diggers Hotline to locate existing utilities. Our operators are trained in safe excavation practices and use precise equipment to avoid damaging existing lines while creating clean, accurate trenches for new installations.

Our Trenching Process

1. Utility Location & Planning

We contact Diggers Hotline and have all existing utilities marked. We review your project requirements, determine proper trench depth and routing, and identify any obstacles. You'll receive a clear quote with timeline for completion.

2. Precision Trenching

Using excavators and trenchers, we dig trenches to exact specifications with proper depth, width, and slope. For water and sewer lines, we ensure consistent grade for proper flow and drainage. We create clean, straight trenches that minimize landscape disturbance.

3. Backfill & Restoration

After utility installation, we backfill trenches with appropriate material - sand bedding for pipes, compacted fill for structural areas. We restore your property to its original condition or better, leaving lawns ready for seeding and driveways ready for paving.
