PG&E-certified trenching and secondary conduit installation in the Bay Area — done to utility spec so your power stays connected.
When PG&E requires trenching and secondary conduit installation for a new service, an upgrade, or a line relocation, the work has to be done by a certified contractor and to PG&E's exact specifications. Vertex General Contractor is certified to perform this work across the Bay Area — making sure your project meets utility requirements and your property stays energized.
PG&E often mandates this trenching before they will connect or continue supplying power to a residence or building. If the trench and conduit aren't installed correctly by a certified contractor, PG&E can delay energization or, in some cases, disconnect service. As a licensed and insured general contractor (CA License #1108837) certified for this work, we handle the entire process so there are no surprises and no interruptions to your power.
PG&E work is not standard trenching. It carries strict certification, depth, bedding, and inspection requirements — see our PG&E trenching requirements guide and our explainer on secondary conduit installation for the details. Getting it wrong means failed inspections, delays, and the risk of losing power. Here's why Bay Area homeowners and builders choose Vertex:
