Local ground notes

Digging in Old Hickory.

Old Hickory’s mill-village homes and river setting mean historic lines and shade trees on small lots.

Older materials and small lots limit machines and routes. Careful locating, compact equipment and trenchless methods protect the character of the neighborhood.

Every Old Hickory job starts the same way: an 811 locate request, a walk of the marks and the route, and a plan for depth, method and restoration. Where lines are close, we verify them by potholing before the heavy digging begins.

Typical depth
