Fiber optic and micro fiber installation, with hands-on excavation support for underground network projects across Dallas, Tarrant, Denton, and Wise counties.
Services
Tru Fiber & Excavation provides field crews for underground communications work, including fiber optic and micro fiber placement, trenching and excavation, and manual digging. We coordinate around approved route plans, site access, utility-locate information, and project schedules. Pathway preparation, cable placement, and closeout are carried out according to site conditions and the scope agreed with the project team.
Underground fiber optic and micro fiber installation begins with a review of route plans, site access, and job requirements. The crew prepares the approved pathway, places the specified cable through designated conduit or route using project-specified methods, and coordinates progress with the project team. Any connections, testing, or closeout steps are handled according to the agreed scope.
Trenching and excavation establish the planned corridor for underground communications infrastructure. Depending on the project, work can include preparing the work area, opening the trench to the specified route and dimensions, and preparing the pathway for conduit or cable placement. Excavated material, backfill, and surface restoration are coordinated as defined in the project scope, with sequencing adjusted to site conditions.
Manual excavation provides careful, hands-on digging when equipment access is limited or a work area calls for a closer approach. Using shovels and hand tools, crews can expose or refine sections of the route around marked utilities and other site features, following project direction and field requirements. This support helps prepare the installation area where precision and access matter.
Typical underground installation
Before field work begins, the project team reviews construction drawings, the approved route, utility-locate information, site access, and schedule. Crew activities then follow the agreed work sequence, installation requirements, and project scope.
Review construction drawings, route alignment, work limits, utility-locate markings, access, and schedule with the project lead. Confirm site-specific requirements and the planned sequence before excavation.
Excavate along the approved alignment and prepare the conduit path and entry points to project requirements. Coordinate trench dimensions and any manual digging with the plans, marked utilities, and field direction.
Place or pull fiber or micro fiber cable through the designated conduit or pathway using the method specified for the job. Follow project and manufacturer requirements for cable handling, bend radius, and pulling tension, and communicate field conditions to the team.
Report completed sections, site conditions, and any route issues to the project lead. Coordinate splicing, termination, optical testing, backfill, or surface restoration when those tasks are assigned within the project scope.
Before mobilization, the project team confirms the approved installation method, division of field responsibilities, applicable construction specifications, and required closeout items. Work is coordinated to those plans and the agreed scope, with site-specific requirements addressed as field conditions require.

Project coordination
Tru Fiber & Excavation provides underground fiber and micro fiber installation, trenching, excavation, and manual digging support for North Texas projects. We coordinate with your team around approved plans, site access, utility-locate information, work sequencing, and target dates. Share the job location, scope, and schedule to discuss crew availability and next steps.
Serving Dallas, Tarrant, Denton & Wise countiesSend the project location, expected start date, route details, and requested services to discuss the work and crew availability.
Provide the job location and county, project phase, requested work, estimated footage or route limits, and target mobilization window. Include route drawings or scope sheets when available, along with site-access or traffic-control requirements and utility-locate status. Note whether the crew is needed for fiber or micro fiber placement, conduit-pathway preparation, trenching, excavation, or hand digging. These details help us review the work and discuss crew availability, scheduling, and next steps.
Before excavation, “calling in locates” means submitting a Texas 811 request for the specific work area. Texas 811 issues a ticket and notifies affected utility operators, who send locators to mark their underground lines. Submit the request at least two business days before digging, excluding weekends and holidays, and confirm every affected operator has responded before work begins. The markings guide excavation; privately owned lines may need a separate locate. Tru Fiber & Excavation coordinates the ticket and reviews the markings, route drawings, access, project specifications, and work sequence with your project lead so the crew can plan around identified utilities and site conditions.
After the scope and site requirements are reviewed, Tru Fiber & Excavation works with your project lead to confirm the requested crew support, target mobilization window, work sequence, access arrangements, and on-site contacts. Before work begins, clarify coordination with other crews, field communication for progress or schedule changes, work-area handoffs, and responsibility for any restoration or closeout tasks included in the scope. This creates a shared plan for crew availability and the start of field operations. Share your preferred start dates and schedule constraints to discuss availability.
