Utility Installation: The Basics Utility installation is the process of installing electric, water and gas lines to a new building or structure. Most utility lines, such as gas, cable, telephone and plumbing, are underground. Underground lines require digging, mapping out existing lines and working underneath structures. When installing underground utilities in a new building, we first map out existing utility lines so we can work around them. This planning is essential, as it allows us to prevent crossed lines and damage to existing materials. Once we establish a plan, we begin trenching, digging long trenches for the utility lines. During this time, we also lay conduits to guide any cables or smaller tubes through the trench. Finally, we lay down the utility lines and ensure that all connections are secure and ready to work. After all the lines are in place, we restore the area so construction can resume.

At Clark Contractors, we are trained to plan out and implement utility lines both underneath and above the surface.

If you are burying utility lines, which is most common, we recommend installing lines once there is a framework for the new structure. You might rely on the utilities throughout the rest of the building process, so having them connected as soon as possible is ideal. Generally, the order for installing utilities is gas and waste lines first, followed by plumbing and ending with electrical. This order may vary, depending on the project, especially if one or more utilities are existing or not needed. Installing your utilities early will simplify the process and give you the freedom to focus on the rest of the project.
