Rakes & Shovels
Contractor grade rakes and shovels for public utility workers are heavy-duty excavation and grading tools designed to withstand demanding conditions in utility trenches, featuring reinforced steel blades, fiberglass or hardwood handles, and robust construction that can handle compacted soil, gravel, and debris encountered during pipe installation and infrastructure maintenance. These professional-grade tools include trenching shovels with narrow blades for precise digging around utilities, landscape rakes for leveling backfill material, and specialty shovels with reinforced edges that enable water department crews, gas utility workers, and municipal technicians to safely excavate, grade, and restore work areas while minimizing damage to existing underground infrastructure.
