Shovels
Contractor grade shovels for public utility workers are heavy-duty excavation tools engineered with reinforced steel blades, fiberglass or hardwood handles, and robust construction designed to withstand the demanding conditions of utility trenching, pipe installation, and infrastructure maintenance in compacted soils and rocky terrain. These professional-grade shovels include trenching spades with narrow blades for precise digging around buried utilities, square point shovels for cutting through roots and hard soil, and transfer shovels for moving backfill material, enabling water department crews, gas utility technicians, and municipal workers to safely excavate and restore utility corridors while minimizing the risk of damaging existing underground infrastructure.
