Ask about our new "Trenchless" Excavation Services.\nWhat is "Trenchless" Excavation you ask? Well, it is most typically associated with the machine you see above. It is most notably used for installing poly pipe in the ground to install fiber optic Internet service. But...the drill doesn't care what it pulls back so it can be used for water, sewer, electric, and gas to get under roads, paved driveways, or just to keep from tearing up your yard. Maybe you have surface drainage or a lawn sprinkler system and don't want to damage it to install a new utility. No matter the reason, we now have another option to get you the end result you want or need. Also, partnering with our sister company Bowsher IT Solutions, we are able to build campus fiber projects or just get communication between buildings with the fastest option and least invasive approach! Feel free to check out all they have to offer on their website bowsherit.com.

"Worked hard to fix our broken sewer line. Peru Utilities had no idea where our line was and didnâ t care once we found it. Seth along with a plumber got us fixed. Then they graded and sloped our yard for seed and straw. Highly Recommend"

"We had a stump that needed to be ground down in order to level the yard and provide extra parking and add to the useability of that area. They came with their equipment and went right to work. In no time the job was complete and was exactly what we had invisioned it to be. Someone must be a mind reader. They were all very polite and talented at what they do. They were very conscientious about their work. Very professional and reasonable rates. We are very Happy Customers and would recommend them without hesitation."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Professional installers often include a deep layer of crushed gravel under permeable pavers to allow more runoff to soak through into the soil below. Many installations will include multiple layers of gravel, with coarser aggregate at the base and finer aggregate that sits on top of that bottom layer. Above the gravel, you’ll often find coarse sand that helps reduce paver shifting over time. Some permeable paver designs include a water collection system set into the gravel layer to route runoff to a safe area for disposal.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

The best method for digging a trench depends on the scope of the project. For a short, shallow trench (less than 2 feet deep) in light, soft soil, digging by hand may be sufficient. However, digging by hand is labor-intensive, so consider the effort required. A machine trencher is the better option for longer trenches (over 100 feet), deeper ones, or when dealing with difficult soil conditions, such as rocky or hard ground, or obstructions like tree roots. A machine can save significant time and energy in these situations.

A walk-behind trencher can cut through roots as long as they’re not too thick, making a project much easier than digging with a shovel and other hand tools. Assess your terrain and the number of trees in the surrounding area to determine if a walk-behind trencher will ease the job. Digging a trench by hand is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive. 

Most residential basements are 8 to 10 feet deep. You can dig deeper depending on building codes, but it does become more difficult. You’ll likely need to install stronger foundation walls and additional supports to handle the increased load. Depending on the water table, you may also need a water management system. Clay soil can support a deeper foundation than sandy soil. A structural engineer will be able to tell you the maximum, feasible depth.
