The Right Trench for Whatever's Going In It
A water line, a sewer line, a run of electrical conduit or an irrigation feed all need their own depth, width and bedding to go in right and stay put. Jerry Cheshire Land Clearing Services digs utility trenches to spec across Southeast Georgia, so whatever you're installing goes in clean and stays protected.
With over 50 years reading local soil, and equipment sized for everything from a short line run to a full site's worth of utilities, we dig to the depth and grade your project calls for — and backfill and compact it properly once the work below is done.

Questions
Trenching Services FAQs
It depends on what's going in the ground and local code requirements — water and sewer lines, electrical conduit and septic fields all call for different depths. We dig to the spec your project and local codes require.
We dig and backfill the trench for all of them — water, sewer, electrical conduit, irrigation and septic lines. Running or connecting the utility itself is typically handled by your utility provider or licensed trade, but we coordinate the trenching around that work.
Every project is different, so we provide a free, no-obligation estimate based on your land, access and the scope of work before anything begins.
