Winter Trenching & Electrical Excavation
Frozen Solid? No Problem.
Minnesota winters shouldn't leave you without power. We partner with specialized excavation teams to provide Frozen Ground Trenching services when regular digging isn't an option.
Standard trenchers bounce off frozen ground like it's concrete. When the frost is 4 feet deep, you need heavy artillery. We coordinate the specialized equipment required to cut through the ice and get your line installed safely.
We Manage the Dig
You don't need to hunt for an excavator with a rock saw. We handle the coordination, the electrical, and the hookup as a seamless project.
Frost Wheels
Cutting Through. For long runs, our partners use large frost wheels (rock saws) that slice through frozen earth, creating a clean trench for your conduit and wire.
Hydro Excavation
Safe Digging. When digging near existing utilities in winter, hydro-vac trucks use heated water to melt the soil and vacuum it away, preventing damage to gas or telecom lines.
Ground Thawing
Targeted Heat. For smaller repairs or foundation work, we can deploy ground thawing blankets to soften the soil specifically where we need to work.
Wait for Spring vs. Act Now
Waiting Game
- Delay: No underground work until May.
- Temp Power: Dealing with extension cords across the snow.
- Stalled: Construction stops because power can't be run.
Winter Trenching
- Now: Get power to your shop, garage, or heater today.
- Permanent: A proper underground install, not a temp fix.
- Managed: We coordinate the heavy equipment for you.
Don't Wait for the Thaw
