Trenching Services in Albuquerque, NM

Trenching Done

Right the First Time

When you need to run pipes or cables underground, a proper trench can make all the difference. Groundbreaking Services provides precise trenching services in Albuquerque and the surrounding region for any project requiring a narrow excavation. Need a clean, efficient trench for utilities, irrigation, or drainage? We dig straight, accurate lines with minimal property disruption. From running a new water line to your barn, to installing irrigation on your property, we’ll cut the trench you need quickly and correctly.

Our crew handles trenching for:

Water Lines

Trenches for connecting to municipal water or running rural water lines between structures or to livestock areas. We ensure the trench meets required depth and width so your piping is safely buried below frost levels and out of harm’s way.

Electrical/Communication Conduits

Precise trenches for power cables, internet fiber, or phone lines. We dig straight paths that make pulling conduit easy, and we mind proper depth and separation from other utilities for safety.

Irrigation Systems:

If you’re installing sprinklers or irrigation piping across your land, we cut shallow trenches that follow your layout. Our careful approach minimizes damage to existing lawn or landscaping, and we can navigate around trees or beds cleanly.

Drainage & French Drains

To solve drainage issues, we excavate trenches for drain tile or French drain systems, grading them with the correct slope so water will flow away as intended.

We use specialized trenching equipment (attachment or trencher machine) when possible to create neat, uniform trenches rather than oversized excavations. This results in less disturbance to your yard – only a narrow strip of soil is removed. If a trencher isn’t suitable due to very rocky soil or other constraints, we can also use our skid steer/backhoe to dig carefully. In all cases, we coordinate utility locating (“811” call) before we dig, to avoid any hits to existing lines.

Once the utilities are placed, we can assist with backfilling the trench and compacting the soil to reduce settling. We’ll even rough grade and clean up the site so it looks like we were never there, aside from the new utility you gained!
