Trenching & Water Lines in Castleton, VT
John Trombley Construction digs clean, precise trenches for water lines, utilities, and drainage across Castleton, Middlebury, Lake George, and the surrounding area.
A trench is only as good as its depth, its line, and how it's backfilled. We dig to spec, keep the run true, and put the ground back the way it should go so nothing settles or shifts later.
We're family owned and operated, and every estimate is free.

What We Trench For
Water & Utility Lines
Trenching for water service, electrical, and other utility runs, dug to the depth the job and the frost line call for.
Drainage
Drainage trenches and lines to move water away from where it's causing trouble and out to where it belongs.
Backfill Done Right
Trenches backfilled and compacted properly so the ground doesn't sink into the line months down the road.

Precision Below the Surface
Most of a trenching job is invisible once it's covered — which is exactly why it has to be right the first time. Too shallow, off-line, or loosely backfilled, and the fix means digging it all up again.
We treat the depth, the grade, and the backfill as the whole job, not just the digging, so what's under your yard stays where we put it.

Deep enough to stay below the frost line for our climate, which we set based on your site. We'll cover the specifics in your estimate.
Always. Underground utilities get marked before we break ground so the dig is safe and there are no surprises.
Not when it's compacted properly, which is part of how we do the job. Loose backfill is what causes settling, and that's the part people skip.
