What's Included in This Service?

Utility installation in Merino begins with locating existing lines using call-before-you-dig services and hand-digging near sensitive areas. We trench to code-compliant depths using mini excavators and trenchers suited for residential and agricultural sites, then lay conduit, pipe, or cable with proper bedding and backfill.

Southwind Contracting coordinates with local utility companies to schedule inspections and hookups. Our team ensures trenches are graded for drainage, compacted to prevent settling, and restored with topsoil and seed. Rural properties often need utility extensions for new barns, homes, or irrigation systems, and we handle every step from initial trench to final connection.

For repairs, we locate damaged sections, excavate carefully to avoid further breakage, and replace or patch faulty lines using durable materials and proper jointing techniques. You'll receive a tested, functional system ready for immediate use without disruption to your daily operations.
