The equipment

Our iron. Our operators.

Compact and mid-size excavators, trenchers, and skid steers — run by operators who dig for a living. You don't rent a machine or babysit a subcontractor. You hand off the scope and it gets done.

Owned fleet — no rental delays
Trained operators on every job

FAQ

Straight answers

What exactly do you do?

Subcontract trenching. We dig the trench, lay conduit in it, and backfill. You keep the trade work.

Who do you work for?

Contractors: electricians, plumbers, low-voltage and fiber crews, solar installers and builders across the Houston metro.

Where do you work?

Houston and the metro around it: Katy, Sugar Land, Pearland, The Woodlands, Cypress, Spring, Conroe, Tomball, League City, Pasadena, Baytown and the towns in between.

How do I get a price?

Send the job through the form. We'll look at the run and get a firm number back within one business day.

How deep do you dig?

To the depth on your plans. Burial depth depends on the code your inspector works from and what's going in the trench, so we take it from the plans, not a rule of thumb.

Are your crews insured?

Yes. Insured crews on every job.

How do I reach you?

By email: sales@houstontrenching.com, or the form on this page. We answer by email.
