With so many utilities under the ground and ticket validity varying per owner’s discretions, the excavator is at a huge disadvantage. With varying duration the excavation window is always getting narrower. TCU manages permits and locates to optimize construction time.

Our competent field and office staff will keep your paint and paperwork active, so you can keep digging safely.

As an excavator the ultimate objectives are:

• Get the construction done
