Built for teams with a deadline to hit.
We're built around how construction actually runs. Real schedules, clear answers, well-kept equipment, and crews that keep producing when a job gets complicated.
When your customer has a deadline, our job is to help you hit it.
ISPs
Mainline and last-mile fiber builds for providers who need production, clean closeouts, and fewer surprises.
Communications Infrastructure
Dark fiber, middle-mile, and route work for infrastructure partners building long-term networks.
Utility Providers
Conduit, casing, and underground support work for gas, water, electric, and telecom utility projects.
General Contractors
HDD subcontracting for general contractors who need a crew that can plan, produce, restore, and communicate.
One coordinated team from bore to restoration.
R7HDD runs multiple crews with one plan, one schedule, and one standard for the field. From locates and potholing to drilling, conduit, restoration, and closeout, our crews coordinate the work efficiently so production keeps moving and nothing gets lost between handoffs.
Horizontal Directional Drilling
Steerable bores under roads, rail, rivers, and dense urban grids. Minimal surface disruption, accurate to design.
Conduit Install
Direct-burial and bored conduit from 1.25″ telecom to 5″+ utility. SDR, HDPE, and steel cased per spec.
Utility Locating & Potholing
Pre-bore locates, vacuum potholing, and one-call coordination. Verified depths before the rig fires up.
Restoration
Concrete, asphalt, sod, and landscape returned to grade. Property owners and inspectors sign off the first time.
Plan, bore, restore.
Every job moves through the same three steps, on one schedule, with one team accountable for all of it.
- 01
Plan
Locates, potholing, permits, traffic control, access, and bore planning. The goal is simple: remove problems before the rig is sitting there waiting.
- 02
Bore
HDD installed by crews who understand depth, utilities, production, and restoration. Conduit pulled, proofed, and ready for the next step.
- 03
Restore
Asphalt, concrete, sod, and ROW restored with clean closeouts so the city, customer, and prime are not dealing with loose ends.

650,000-Foot Fiber-to-the-Home Buildout, Mid-Michigan
Near 650,000 linear feet of fiber-to-the-home conduit bored across rural mid-Michigan for MEC — 10 months, multiple rigs running in parallel, zero damage claims and zero municipal violations.
Charter Communications · OH120,000-Foot Fiber Expansion, Williams County, Ohio
Charter Spectrum fiber expansion across Williams County, Ohio — 120,000 linear feet bored and restored in 45 days under strict ODOT state-route permits, with zero damages.
We've run a lot of bore crews over the years. R7 is the one I don't have to babysit — they hit the dates, the depths are right, and the restoration is clean enough that I never hear from the city. That's worth a lot to me.
