Reviews from homeowners, developers, and ISP contractors across the 417.

Samantha S. ★★★★★

T&C Underground does great work. They were proficient, professional, and got the fiber line under my driveway without touching a single flower bed. Cleaned up after themselves and were done before lunch.

Wendy S. ★★★★★

Had them out for some foundation dirt work and a water line. Professional crew, kept us informed the whole time. When they were finished you could barely tell they had been here — the cleanup looked great.

We needed fiber run under the road to a new spec home. T&C had the bore done in half a day. No mess, no drama. The conduit and mule tape were exactly where we needed them for the splice crew. Will use again on the next phase.

Chris and his crew are the real deal. They pulled 811, showed up when they said they would, and bored under a long paved driveway without a single crack. Yard restoration was better than I expected.

Used T&C for vacuum excavation before a road crossing. They daylighted three utilities I didn't even know were in the path. That right there probably saved me a week of delays and a call to the gas company.

Contractor
Step 01 Locate

Missouri 811 ticket pulled. Every utility marked before we move.

Step 02 Bore

Steerable drill head advances underground. No open trench above.

Step 03 Pull

Seed, straw, or asphalt patch. We don't leave until the site looks right.

Why T&C Underground

The way underground work should be done.

Missouri 811 on every job

We pull the locate ticket at least three working days out on every project. No exceptions.

Restoration in every bid

Seed, sod, and asphalt patch are line items, not afterthoughts. The job isn't done until the site looks right.

Subdivision specialists

Multi-lot fiber buildouts, road crossings, utility coordination with other trades. We work off site plans.

Mediacom subcontractor

ISP production runs, last-mile drops, mainline conduit. Clean paperwork and production sheets on every phase.

Why go trenchless

Bore vs. open trench.

For most residential and commercial crossings, directional boring wins on every dimension that matters.

Open trench

  • Entire surface must be excavated
  • Kills grass, landscaping, and pavement
  • Traffic disruption for road crossings
  • More labor to backfill and compact
  • Restoration cost is separate and often higher
  • Weather delays during open excavation

Directional bore (what we do)

  • Only small entry and exit pits
  • Lawn, driveway, and pavement stay intact
  • No road closure needed for most crossings
  • Single-pass installation under obstacles
  • Restoration is fast: backfill two small pits
  • Works in wet or frozen ground conditions

Questions

Frequently asked.

Straight answers about our work, process, and how to get a quote.

Getting a bid
How do I get a bid?
Call (417) 569-8175 or use the Request a Bid form. Tell us the address, what you're installing, and any surface details. Most bids come back within a couple business days.
How is boring priced?
Most work is quoted per foot, per bore, as a day rate, or lump sum depending on the job. Simple residential bores are often flat-rate. We'll explain the model in the bid so there are no surprises.
Are you insured and bonded?
Yes. We carry general liability and workers' compensation on every job. Request a certificate of insurance when you get your bid.
Scheduling & site work
Do you offer emergency or after-hours work?
We don't run a 24/7 line. Most of our work is planned in advance. If you have a time-sensitive situation, call us and we'll tell you honestly whether we can fit it in.
Do you handle Missouri 811 locate tickets?
Yes, we pull the 811 ticket on every job at least three working days out, per Missouri law. Private utilities that 811 won't catch we daylight with vacuum excavation before boring near them.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the 417 corridor — Greene, Christian, Webster, Polk, Taney, and Lawrence counties out of Ozark. If your job is outside that range, call us anyway and we'll tell you if it makes sense.
Do you do work for Mediacom or other ISPs?
Yes. Mediacom subcontract work is a significant part of what we do across southwest Missouri. ISP construction managers and project owners can reach out directly.
Cleanup & after-the-job
How do you minimize damage to my yard or driveway?
Directional boring avoids open trenching entirely — two small pits at each end is all you see. Where some disturbance is unavoidable, we work in narrow cuts and restore with topsoil and seed as a standard bid item.
What's the smallest job you'll take?
A single fiber drop or water-line crossing under a driveway is a normal job for us. If it's in the 417 and requires a bore, plow, or vac-ex, we'll quote it.
What's the largest job you handle?
We've done subdivision-scale fiber buildouts across dozens of lots and multi-phase ISP production runs. Large jobs get a dedicated start date and a clear production plan.
