Overview

Everhart & Hoover provides underground services including trenching, directional drilling with percussion rock-head equipment, duct bank and manhole installation, cable installations and terminations, and fault locating and repairs.

Our crews are trained to work in tight corridors and urban environments, minimizing disruption and maximizing safety. New development, utility upgrade, or emergency repair: we install underground systems the right way, safely and to spec.

Underground work requires detailed coordination and exacting standards. We assess site conditions and utility locations, then choose the method, from open trench to directional bore. When you need it buried, you need it done right.
