We understand that the installation of fiber in your neighborhood may raise some questions and concerns. We want to ensure that the process is as smooth as possible for you.
To ensure a smooth construction process and avoid damage to underground utilities, we begin by marking the ground using flags or paint. These service markers indicate the location of other utility lines and are necessary to protect existing services.
Prior to construction, our survey crews will be in the neighborhood performing site surveys and on-site examinations of the proposed work area, including the ground and utility poles.
We use multiple installation techniques tailored to the specific site conditions and our capacity to efficiently serve households while minimizing disruption to the community. Above all, the greatest importance is placed on community and resident safety, which includes both vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
We install fiber along the designated route, ensuring proper connectivity and minimal disruption. Installation methods include either attached to existing utility poles or underground within a conduit.

After installation, we clean up by collecting tools and materials, removing debris, securing cables, sweeping the area, and performing a final inspection. Our goal is to leave the installation area clean and organized, ensuring that the fiber is securely installed and ready
for use.
Microtrenching is a method for installing conduits and/or fiber optic cables alongside roads or curbs. This process involves a minimally invasive technique where the conduits and cables are placed in a narrow trench, typically measuring 0.5 to 2 inches in width. This approach ensures that the existing infrastructure remains undisturbed and unharmed.
