Excavation Works in Tallinn and Harju County — Digger Work, Utility Construction and Emergency Excavation 24/7
Toru SOS carries out excavation works in Tallinn and Harju County — laying utility networks, building and repairing water and drainage mains, restoring wells, and emergency excavation. We work with a digger as well as by hand.
What excavation work do we carry out?
Excavation is an essential part of most utility construction and repair jobs. Whether it's connecting a water main from the city network to a house, installing drainage, building a stormwater outlet, or emergency excavation to find a leaking pipe, we have the equipment and experience for it.

Planning excavation work
Every excavation job begins with proper planning. Estonian regulations require that all underground utilities (electricity, gas, telecoms, water, heating) that could run through the planned dig area be identified before work starts. We contact the relevant network owners as needed and request an official markout.
The equipment used depends on the scope and location. For larger jobs we use a digger, which speeds things up considerably. In tight spaces, or where there are many utilities nearby, we work by hand — slower, but safer and less likely to damage existing systems.
Main construction for houses
Connecting a new house to the water and drainage networks is a bigger job involving both excavation and pipe installation. Toru SOS offers this as a complete service — from design (agreed with the city network where needed) through to a turnkey connection. Once the job is done we also restore the ground surface and clean up the site.
Main construction is often combined with driveways, parking areas or landscaping on the plot. We help plan the work so the same area doesn't need digging up more than once — saving you both time and money.
How does the process work?
Everything starts with your call or online enquiry. Our dispatcher listens to the problem, assesses how urgent it is, and sends the nearest available technician. In an emergency we head out immediately; for planned work we agree a time that suits you. The technician arrives with the equipment and spare parts needed to sort things out in a single visit wherever possible.
On site we run a first diagnosis, pin down the exact cause of the fault and propose the best solution. We agree the scope and price with you before starting, so you know exactly what you're paying for. Any extra materials or work are always confirmed separately before we proceed.
Once the job is finished we test the system, clean up after ourselves and issue a report. We give you practical advice on further care and, where useful, can offer a maintenance contract with regular preventive check-ups.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
Do you do smaller excavation work by hand?
Yes, in tight spaces or emergencies we work by hand. It's slower, but safer for the surrounding utilities.
Do you locate underground utilities first?
Yes, this is always part of our process. Where needed we request an official markout from the utility owners.
How long does a water main connection for a house take?
A typical water connection takes 1–3 working days depending on distance and ground conditions.
Do you carry out excavation in winter?
Yes, but frozen ground makes the work slower and more expensive. We recommend planning for a warmer period where possible.
Who restores the ground surface afterwards?
Restoring the surface is included in the basic job. Landscaping, paving and any other special finishes are agreed separately.
