Underground Utilities Contractors You Can Trust
Starting Your Underground Utilities Project
Planning is critical for any type of build and that includes what goes on underground. Underground utilities include existing infrastructure for the area such as electricity cables,
traffic and street lights, natural gas, storm and water drains, and cable TV, as well as the
utilities you will need for your own building. A good build plan will take a forensic approach
into mapping these public utility installations, as well as the correct placement of the new
utilities. Greenway of Nashville offers you such an approach, in addition to a punctilious and professional team of experts.
Breaking ground is an exciting moment in any construction project but safety is paramount.
We utilize a number of different techniques to ensure a safe excavation, every time. Our
skilled operators are carefully trained to handle the heavy-duty equipment and minimize the risk of encountering an unexpected utility pipe or cable.

Choosing the Right Equipment for your Underground Utilities
Using the right equipment for the job might sound obvious, but installing underground utilities calls for specialized equipment to ensure the project is completed efficiently, profitably and choosing the equipment depends on whether the terrain is principally soil, rock or concrete. The construction team at Greenway of Nashville will identify the equipment that best meets your project’s needs and ensures that it is all serviced and ready to go with an experienced operator at its helm.
Rock needs to be broken up using a hoe ram, a sharp-tipped hydraulichammer. The rock becomes fractured and loose, allowing it to be removed using a largebucket.
We remove soil using excavators, heavy hydraulic diggers with a rotating platform that sits on top of an undercarriage with tracks or wheels.
Trenchers
These heavy-duty machines are absolutely vital in any kind of underground utilities installation. Trenchers use a metal chain with steel teeth to tear into the ground anddig trenches for laying pipes, electrical cables or drainage.
Loaders
Materials such as debris, rock, and asphalt is moved safely around the site onloaders, or onto another type of machinery such as dump truck or hopper.
Graders
In most construction Greenway of Nashville projects, we need to create flatsurfaces for roads or before constructing buildings. The grader’s long blade forms thesurface during the grading process.
