We are excited to be able to bring fast, reliable Internet to your community and are committed to keeping you informed. To learn more about what to expect while we build our Fiber network in your area, you’ve come to the right place!
The communities we serve are very important to us and we want you to have a positive experience from the very start. That’s why we make every effort to provide advanced notification of construction through various communications methods, such as mail and/or door tag. Speaking of advanced, here’s a look at our cutting-edge Fiber construction process.
STEP ONE:
The magic starts with our engineering team designing a detailed plan for most efficiently bringing our Fiber to your area. You may notice our crews in your neighborhood gathering information to inform this build-plan. Decisions include whether our Fiber will be installed underground, on existing utility poles or a combination of the two. Rest assured we work together with local authorities to obtain the required approvals and permissions for the build-plan.
STEP TWO:
STEP THREE:
At this stage, we’re ready to build our 100% Fiber network. Depending on the custom plan developed for your area, we will use specialized equipment to place Fiber:
Our team of professionals will then splice and test the Fiber connection to ensure it is lightning-fast.
STEP FOUR:
We understand that construction may be disruptive, but we want to assure you that we will do our best to avoid property damage and take great care to clean-up upon construction completion. If you have any construction-related property concerns, please call the help-line for your state and we’ll be glad to assist you:
STEP FIVE:

Fiber-optic enables delivery of the fastest, most reliable Internet speeds to support the growing number of connected devices your family needs to work, learn, surf, game, and stream entertainment. Clearwave Fiber installs Fiber to the Home (FTTH) network, which is considered the ‘gold standard’ delivery of Fiber Internet and is currently enjoyed by only 15% of homes in the U.S.
Our Clearwave Fiber Construction team is focused on deploying leading-edge Fiber technology to your community while minimizing disruption to you and your neighbors. We work with the utility companies in your area to identify the location of water, gas, and electrical supply lines. To ensure that we can avoid impacting these utilities, please do not remove the flags. Our team will take care of that once construction is complete. Any temporary spray paint used to mark these locations is water-based and will go away with time.
If you have private utilities like sprinklers, electric pet fence or septic, there is no need to contact us to let us know – we do our very best to work around them. For any construction-related issues or concerns, please call the help-line for your state: Georgia/Florida: 866-531-9276, Illinois: 800-913-7254, Kansas: 913-586-8008.
For everyone’s safety, markers and paint should remain in place until network installation is complete. The temporary spray paint used is water-based, so will go away with time.
Clearwave Fiber has the legal right to access the designated utility easements typically located within a strip of land running along the street, sidewalk, the rear lot line, or between two lots. If the easement is within a fenced-in yard, crews will need your help accessing the area.
The municipality owns small, specific portions of each property to be able to access and maintain city utilities. We work with the municipality to access these areas during construction.
The two ways include underground where Fiber is buried in conduit in-the-ground, and aerial building where Fiber is placed above-ground typically on existing utility poles.
Main conduit will be placed approximately 3 feet underground. Connections between individual locations and the main line are typically placed no more than 1 foot underground.
Construction projects vary in length based on the size of the neighborhood or community, the layout of the streets, etc. Our teams will work as quickly as possible.
Yes! You can submit your pre-order here and hold your spot in the installation queue.
While our Clearwave Fiber Construction Teams will make every effort to minimize disruption to you and your neighbors, we know that mistakes sometimes happen and we are here to help. Construction-related property concerns should be reported by calling the help line for your state:
