  • Entertainment industry facility owners managing infrastructure upgrades
  • Homeowners replacing or upgrading underground utility services in hillside neighborhoods


Hollywood presents unique trenching challenges — dense underground infrastructure along major commercial corridors, hillside terrain with varying soil conditions above the flats, and high pedestrian and vehicle traffic that demands careful traffic control and site management. Our crews are experienced handling all of it.

Working in Hollywood's Dense Urban Environment

Hollywood is one of the most infrastructure-dense environments in Los Angeles. Decades of development along Hollywood Boulevard, Sunset Boulevard, and surrounding corridors have created a complex underground environment where existing utilities require careful mapping and precise excavation techniques.


Our crews use ground-penetrating radar and vacuum potholing on every Hollywood project before any mechanical excavation begins. We coordinate with the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Engineering and LADWP throughout the permitting and inspection process, and we implement full traffic control measures on all jobs in or adjacent to Hollywood's active commercial and pedestrian corridors.


We are experienced working alongside the entertainment industry facilities, studio-adjacent properties, and high-density residential developments that make Hollywood's infrastructure demands unlike any other part of Los Angeles County.
