Core offering

Austin Underground Inc performs difficult underground utility installation and replacement work (water, wastewater, storm, duct bank) along with asphalt paving and concrete construction for municipal, institutional, and commercial clients in central Texas. The company delivers projects end-to-end using in-house crews, from below-ground utility work through final paving, and supports clients with utility locating and redesign services in dense urban areas such as downtown Austin.

The company operates through four core service areas: Municipal Utility Construction (municipal street work in Austin, San Marcos, and San Antonio), Institutional Construction (for universities and state facilities), Commercial Construction (high-rise utility installations in downtown Austin), and Roadway Construction (asphalt paving and concrete work). The company provides end-to-end services including utility installation from below ground through final paving, with in-house crews and trade partners.
