TRENCHING
Trenching involves the excavation of trenches for the installation of underground utilities such as pipes, cables, and conduits.
J&R has trenchers of varying sizes suited to almost any trenching project. Once the trench has been established, the conduit is installed to hold and protect the electric line, fiberoptics, or other utility. Our rock wheel can cut a trench that is up to 5” wide x 36” deep in solid rock.

J&R Underground helped us complete large line conversions, from overhead to underground lines.
Our crew and line foremen have commented that the J&R crews are professional, hardworking, and committed to quality. We think we have a “good thing going” and would like to continue working with the J&R gang!
