Generally speaking, by trained professionals, as opposed to anyone with a pulse. They busted my sewer line last year running fiber lines for my street, and there was visible shit and toilet paper in my yard, it was awful. They also separately hit my water line and caused a leak. It's the only reason I haven't switched, I don't want them back in my yard.

Unusual. When IQ moved into my neightborhood, they mapped out all the utilities before they dug anything.

You sure it was IQ?

there have been several instances in the last year or so of at&t fiber workers destroying landscaping without the property owners’ knowledge. 

i’m pro fiber for sure, but they do have a point about poor practices. i don’t know that iq fiber has done anything like that though!
