What Is Street Excavation?
Street excavation involves digging into public or municipal roadways to:
- Replace or repair sewer and water lines
- Install or upgrade utility connections
- Fix collapsed lines or breaks that extend into the roadway
- Perform emergency repairs due to flooding or pipe failure
Because these pipes run under city-owned streets, sidewalks, or curbs, excavation requires strict coordination with local authorities — and licensed experts who provide Professional Street Excavation Services to ensure everything is completed safely and in full compliance.
Why Street Excavation Requires Specialized Expertise
Unlike digging on private property, street excavation involves:
- Permits from your city or township
- Traffic control and signage
- PA One Call utility location and clearance
- Timing restrictions (rush hour blackout periods)
- Inspections and post-repair road restoration
Our team handles everything from permitting to final patching, so you stay compliant and protected.
