Construction & maintenance
Waldron runs aerial and underground construction and maintenance within a day’s drive of Marietta, with municipal work first. Crews Waldron manages place strand and lash, overlash, pole transfers, directional boring, trenching, conduit and vaults, to an issued design or to one Waldron engineered. After turn-up, Waldron holds contract maintenance agreements and sends those crews to storm and emergency calls on aerial and underground fiber and coax.
Overview
Aerial and underground, built and maintained by crews we manage.
Aerial and buried utility construction has been core to Waldron since 1982. Today Waldron manages the placement and maintenance crews from the yard in Marietta, so one company answers for the schedule and for the plant after turn-up.

Common questions
Common questions.
Who does the construction and maintenance?
Crews that Waldron manages do the aerial and underground construction and the maintenance work. Waldron’s own engineers handle the design when the job includes it.
Do you do both aerial and underground construction?
Yes. Aerial and buried utility construction have both been core to the business since 1982, including strand and lash, pole framing and transfers, directional boring and trenching.
Can you build from an engineering package we already have?
Yes. Crews Waldron manages build to a client’s issued design, and Waldron can also engineer the route in house if you would rather one contractor carry both.
Do you offer contract maintenance, or only call-out work?
Both. Waldron holds ongoing maintenance agreements, and also responds to emergency and storm work as it comes, on fiber and coax, aerial and underground.
