Rock Trenching & Excavation

When the ground is too hard for standard trenching, rock trenching keeps underground electric, fiber and conduit on schedule. TLT self-performs rock trenching and excavation, so a hard-ground route does not force a redesign or a subcontractor handoff.

Rock Trenching & Excavation scope

  • Cable and conduit routes through rock and other hard ground
  • Utility corridors where open trench is the planned method
  • Work paired with drilling, vacuum excavation and restoration
