Digging in Portland.
Portland’s small-town homes and farmland edges combine older lines with open ground.
Older lines in town benefit from camera inspection and repair, while the edges of town call for long runs.
Every Portland 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.
