Construction Process
How long will this take?
The entire process will take several months (contingent upon weather conditions). Typically we start the process in late spring and finish in late Fall. There may also be times when construction ceases in your area, only to start up again several weeks later.
What should I expect during the construction process?
During construction, the ground may be torn up but we WILL NOT leave it this way! Safety is extremely important to us. This means you don’t have to worry about us leaving open trenches. You may start to see orange inner duct poking out of the ground alongside the road as well as parked machinery. This helps the construction crew prepare for the next day’s work to speed up the process. The construction process is not a pretty one, but please DO NOT WORRY! By the end of the project, everything will be neatly buried in the ground and out of sight.
What should I expect after the construction process?
We are committed to leaving all construction areas in as good or better shape than before we started. However, the clean-up process occurs in the very last phase of the project. This means you may be looking at bare spots, or small piles of dirt for an extended period of time.
During our cleanup phase, we will ensure the ground has been smoothed out. We will bring in topsoil where is needed, and also seed/cover with hay. New grass should begin sprouting within 10 days of the clean-up work.
Will TeleMedia fix areas that get damaged from construction?
ABSOLUTELY. We are committed to leaving all construction areas in as good or better shape than before we started. Please be mindful of our timeline and note that clean-up is the final phase of the project. Missed a spot? Please give us a call! We will be more than happy to send a crew out to fix it. We only ask that you be patient through the construction process as it does take time. Wet or icy weather can be an impediment to our progress.
