My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Electrical trenching

10 years ago

So we are thinking of building a new home! Our problem is we cannot get an easement to run poles the 1500-2000' to the property. My question is how far can you run the cable underground, and what size (if its possible) would I use for a 200amp service?
