T&C Underground is a directional drilling outfit based in Springfield, Missouri.
“We pull the 811, show up when we say we will, and don’t leave the site looking worse than we found it. That’s the whole job.” — Chris Leake, owner, T&C Underground
T&C Underground was started by Chris Leake in 2017 and runs out of Springfield, Missouri. Directional boring, fiber installation, vacuum excavation, utility plowing, and site restoration across the 417 and throughout Missouri.
Mediacom subcontract work has been part of the business since the beginning. Subdivision fiber buildouts, road crossings, ISP production runs. We also take residential jobs: a single fiber drop, a water-line crossing under a driveway, skid-steer work on a finished lot.

Reviews from homeowners, developers, and ISP contractors across the 417 (southwest Missouri).
T&C Underground does great work. They were proficient, professional, and got the fiber line under my driveway without touching a single flower bed. Cleaned up after themselves and were done before lunch.
Had them out for some foundation dirt work and a water line. Professional crew, kept us informed the whole time. When they were finished you could barely tell they had been here — the cleanup looked great.
We needed fiber run under the road to a new spec home. T&C had the bore done in half a day. No mess, no drama. The conduit and mule tape were exactly where we needed them for the splice crew. Will use again on the next phase.
Chris and his crew are the real deal. They pulled 811, showed up when they said they would, and bored under a long paved driveway without a single crack. Yard restoration was better than I expected.
Used T&C for vacuum excavation before a road crossing. They daylighted three utilities I didn't even know were in the path. That right there probably saved me a week of delays and a call to the gas company.
Super easy to work with. Quoted the job fast, explained exactly what they were going to do, and did it. Getting internet buried to our outbuilding seemed complicated but they made it simple.
I manage a small subdivision build outside Nixa. T&C handled all the fiber conduit for the whole phase — about 40 lots. Production was steady, paperwork was clean, and they coordinated well with the other trades on-site.
We had a water line that needed to cross under the driveway without tearing it up. They came out, gave an honest bid, did the work in one morning, and the asphalt patch on the end pits was clean. Very satisfied.
Needed skid-steer work on a small property — pad prep and backfill after a retaining wall went in. They were in and out in about four hours, charged exactly what they quoted, and the grade was perfect.
Getting a fiber drop to our rural home was a headache with every other contractor. T&C figured out the bore path, pulled the permit, did the job, and by 3pm we were done. Grass seed on the path, straw over it. Honest people.
