Site Utilities Package: Water, Sewer, Storm, Fire Line
Complete underground utility installation for industrial site development in North Texas.
Underground utility installation forms the circulatory system of any industrial development. Property developers and facility owners throughout North Richland Hills and the DFW region depend on properly installed water, sewer, storm, and fire protection systems to support building operations. Our utility crews have extensive experience with the complete range of underground infrastructure required for industrial sites.
Water service for industrial facilities must accommodate domestic consumption, fire protection, and potentially process water requirements. We install water mains from municipal connection points to building service entries, including all valves, fittings, and appurtenances required for system operation. Fire line installations are coordinated with fire protection engineers to ensure adequate flow and pressure for sprinkler systems.
Sanitary sewer systems collect wastewater from buildings and convey it to municipal treatment facilities. Industrial facilities may have enhanced sewer requirements for process wastewater, grease interceptors, or other specialized treatment. We install sewer mains, manholes, and service connections meeting applicable codes and municipal standards.
Storm drainage systems are addressed separately in our stormwater management services, but are often installed concurrently with other utilities to optimize trenching operations. Coordination of multiple utility systems in common corridors requires careful planning to maintain proper clearances and allow for future maintenance access.
Natural gas service, while not always within our direct scope, requires coordination during site utility planning. We work with utility providers to identify service entry points and plan utility corridors that accommodate all required services. Electrical duct banks and conduits for primary service are addressed in our electrical site work services.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who coordinates with utility providers for service connections?
We handle coordination with municipal water and sewer departments, as well as private utility providers. This includes application for service, coordination of inspections, and arrangement for final connections. We maintain relationships with utility providers throughout the DFW area.
What pipe materials do you use for industrial utility work?
Material selection depends on application and local requirements. Water mains are typically ductile iron or PVC C900. Sanitary sewers use PVC SDR-35 or ductile iron. Fire lines may require ductile iron or polyethylene depending on the specific application and pressure requirements.
How do you handle utility conflicts during construction?
Utility conflicts are common, especially on infill sites. We perform utility locates before excavation and maintain pothole crews for exploratory excavation in congested areas. When conflicts arise, we work with engineers to develop solutions that maintain required clearances and system function.
What testing and inspections are required for underground utilities?
Water and fire lines require pressure testing and bacteriological testing before acceptance. Sewer lines undergo mandrel testing or video inspection to verify proper installation. We coordinate all required testing and inspections with municipal authorities.
Can you install utilities in phases as development progresses?
Yes, we frequently install utilities in phases aligned with overall development timing. Master utility infrastructure may be installed early to support multiple building phases, with individual service connections added as buildings are constructed.
