Underground Power Service

Stone City handles and coordinates underground power service for homes, farms, waterfront properties, rural sites, new builds, outbuildings, and commercial properties across Kingston and Eastern Ontario.

Underground service may be used when power needs to run below grade from a pole area or service point to a structure or another part of the property.

When underground power service is used

Underground power service may be considered for new homes, waterfront properties, shops and garages, barns and farm buildings, secondary structures, commercial buildings, long underground runs, and properties where overhead line is not preferred or practical.

The right setup depends on the distance, terrain, destination, and existing service.

Underground power for new structures

Stone City handles and coordinates underground power service connected to new homes, garages, shops, barns, and other structures.

A project may involve trenching from the pole or service area toward the structure, placing conduit, and preparing the underground work area for the service connection.

What underground power service may include

Underground power service may include several stages of below-grade preparation. The below-grade work should be understood before the ground is opened.

Underground service depends on the property conditions

Underground service can be affected by what is already on the property.

Driveways, trees, landscaping, rock, slope, wet areas, existing utilities, and building locations can all shape the work. On rural and waterfront properties, the ground can also change across the same site.

These details help determine the underground run, trenching needs, and preparation required.
