Open, Install and Close in One Pass.

Utility ploughing feeds conduit or cable into the ground as the machine moves, so long runs go in fast, with no open trench and very little to restore.

Utility plough with cable reel

Built for distance.

Rail corridors, rural road allowances and cross-country telecom routes. Long linear runs where trenching by the metre stops making financial sense.

One machine, one crew.

No trench sitting open overnight and no separate backfill crew following behind. The line is in the ground and covered as the plough moves.

Rock doesn't stop the run.

Our rock wheel cuts solid bedrock to a full 4 ft depth. Most ploughing contractors stop where the rock starts.

Rail-corridor ready.

Our crews are CROR-qualified, so work inside the rail corridor doesn’t need a second contractor.

Minimal surface disruption

A narrow slit instead of an open trench, so there is far less sod, gravel and asphalt to put back once the line is in.

Faster than trenching, by a lot.

Faster than trenching, by a lot. On the right ground, ploughing covers in a day what open cut takes a week to do.

What we
plough in

Seven utilities, one method, from a
residential service line to a 48" trunk main

Water Mains & Services

Distribution mains and service connections in HDPE or PVC. Residential ties through municipal trunk lines, bored under roads, driveways and watercourses without opening the street.

Sanitary & Forcemain

Gravity sanitary on grade and pressurized forcemain, installed under roads, rail and rivers where an open cut isn't permitted or isn't practical.

Telecom & Fibre

Conduit and duct bank for fibre and broadband builds. Long runs on live streets with tight tolerances and minimal surface disruption through built-up areas.

Hydro & Power

Primary and secondary ducts for hydro and power include road, highway, and rail crossings. Conduits are installed underground to protect cables.

Oil, Gas & Fuel Lines

Fuel and gas installations drilled to the tolerances and documentation standards this work requires.

Intake & Outfall Lines

Water intake and outfall crossings under shoreline, riverbed and wetland, where surface disturbance isn't an option.

Every Sector Has Its Own Rules. We Plough to All of Them.

Ploughed conduit, cable and pipe for municipalities, telecoms, rail operators, developers, utilities and industrial sites.

Municipal & Government

Rural broadband, street lighting conduit and small-diameter water lines ploughed along road allowances, with ditches and shoulders left intact.

Telecom & Broadband

Fibre conduit and cable ploughed over long rural and cross-country routes, at the production rates these builds are budgeted on.

Rail & Transit

Signal, communications and fibre lines ploughed along the right-of-way by CROR-qualified crews working inside live corridors.

Developers & General Contractors

Conduit and service lines ploughed across greenfield sites ahead of roads and paving. We work around your sequence, not against it.

Power & Fuel

Power cable, duct and polyethylene gas line ploughed along road allowances and across open ground.

Industrial & Commercial

Power and communications lines ploughed across large sites such as plants, yards and solar farms, without shutting them down for trenching.

    An underground utility contractor installs, repairs and supports underground infrastructure such as water, sewer, telecom, hydro, fuel and geothermal systems using specialized construction methods and equipment.

    CC Underground provides horizontal directional drilling (HDD), hydrovac excavation, utility ploughing, HDPE pipe fusion, geothermal loop installation and related underground construction services across Ontario.

    Hydrovac excavation uses pressurized water and vacuum removal to safely expose underground utilities, daylight services, slot trench and excavate around existing infrastructure with less surface disruption.

    HDD provides trenchless installation of water, sewer, telecom, hydro and other utility lines beneath roads, rail corridors, waterways and developed areas while minimizing surface disruption.

    The company is registered with ComplyWorks , has CROR-qualified crews for live rail corridors, and is currently pursuing COR certification through IHSA.
