Services available in Kittitas Valley

Directional drilling with rock drilling capability

Precision underground boring for telecom, fiber, and power infrastructure. Our directional drilling crews handle everything from small-bore fiber installs to large-diameter utility crossings while keeping surface disruption to a minimum. Kittitas Valley's mountain-adjacent terrain often demands the rock drilling capability our specialized equipment provides.

Equipment deployed: Ditch Witch JT2020 (directional drill), Ditch Witch AT40 (rock drill), and Ditch Witch JT60 All Terrain (rock drill). Both rock drills earn their keep in Kittitas Valley.

Hydro excavation with two Vactor trucks

Safe, non-destructive excavation for utility locating, potholing, and emergency response. Hydro excavation exposes live power, fiber, and gas infrastructure without the strike risk that comes with mechanical digging. Our two-truck vac fleet delivers response capacity for back-to-back utility exposures, multi-day potholing runs, and emergency calls throughout Kittitas Valley.

Equipment deployed: International Vactor 2100 and Freightliner Vactor 2100.

Trenching and plowing for long-run cable and conduit

Trenching and cable plowing for underground infrastructure runs across open terrain. Ride-on trenchers cut precise channels for cable and conduit; cable plows pull product directly into the ground for long-run direct-bury work. Our trenching equipment handles the long-run jobs that fit Kittitas Valley terrain, including the I-90 corridor.

Aerial and overhead civil support

Civil groundwork for overhead power and telecom infrastructure. Our crews dig pole holes, set poles to grade, and install anchors to utility partner specifications. The electrical or telecom crew that follows handles the connections. Our aerial civil crews support overhead utility work throughout Kittitas County.
