About
ποΈ Who We Are
Angelo Underground LLC is a family-driven excavation and underground utility company founded by Christopher J. Angelo, continuing a proud legacy that spans five generations of service across New York State.
From the streets of the Bronx to the neighborhoods of Albany and Syracuse — and back to our home in the City of Poughkeepsie here in Dutchess County — the Angelo name has been trusted in underground infrastructure for over 50 years. Our legacy began with Teleco Pipe Cleaning, founded by Joseph and Albert Angelo, two trailblazers in sewer cleaning and infrastructure diagnostics.
That spirit was carried forward by Christopher and his brother John through J. Angelo Industries, and now lives on in a new era with Angelo Underground LLC — streamlined, sharpened, and fully equipped for the future.
When the world changed in 2020, we adapted. Through hardship and uncertainty, we rebuilt — stronger than ever and committed to doing what we do best: digging with purpose.

Robotic camera inspection of sewer and drainage lines gives us eyes underground — identifying cracks, breaks, and obstructions before they become disasters.

New utility hookups, emergency repairs, and system replacements done right — fully compliant, fully documented.

From French drains and swales to grading, berms, and stormwater management — we shape the land to work for you, not against you.
Hydro-Vac truc services
At Angelo Underground LLC, we’ve been at the forefront of hydro excavation and vacuum truck operations since the late 1980s. Our legacy began when Joseph Angelo and his son Christopher flew out of Stewart Air Force Base in Newburgh, NY to Madison, Wisconsin, where they acquired one of the first Vactor 810 combination machines ever brought into Dutchess County. Richard “Dick” Hutchinson, a visionary in the utility field, told our father, “These trucks are the future.” He couldn’t have been more right.
Back then, our family business — Teleco Pipe Cleaning — was already solving complex underground infrastructure problems using test-and-seal packers, grout injection systems, and cutting-edge pipeline repair technologies. We’ve proudly supported municipal DPWs, highway departments, engineers, and contractors with innovative vacuum solutions ever since.
Today, Angelo Underground LLC continues that legacy by offering:
• Hydro excavation and daylighting for safe, non-destructive utility exposure
• Pipe jetting and sewer cleaning using high-pressure water systems
• Storm drain and catch basin cleanouts
• Sludge, debris, and spill vacuum removal
• Municipal and private system support
We run modern combo units that deliver power, precision, and minimal surface disruption — ideal for utility locating, trenchless excavation, confined space cleaning, and emergency response.
With over 50 years of experience spanning from the Bronx and Rockland County up to Albany and Syracuse, our team brings a deep understanding of the region’s infrastructure and the know-how to get the job done right.
Full excavation company
At Angelo Underground LLC, excavation isn’t just what we do — it’s who we are. Our roots in the earthmoving industry go back over 50 years, beginning with Teleco Pipe Cleaning, the original family company owned and operated by Joseph Angelo and his brother Albert Angelo. From day one, our family has been committed to solving the toughest underground utility challenges across New York State — from the Bronx and Rockland County all the way to Albany and Syracuse.
As a 5th-generation Italian-American contractor, owner-operator Christopher J. Angelo carries forward that tradition with grit, precision, and pride. Raised on job sites and trained by the best — his father — Christopher learned the value of hard work, safety, and efficiency in the excavation trade.
Our excavation services include:
• Site preparation and grading
• Foundation excavation
• Trenching for water, sewer, storm, and electric
• Driveway and roadway cuts
• Utility tie-ins and disconnects
• Backfill, compaction, and final grading
We specialize in both residential and commercial excavation, with a sharp focus on tight-access work, complex utility coordination, and compliance with local DPW and DOT standards. Whether you’re clearing land for new construction or performing critical utility upgrades in congested neighborhoods, we bring the experience and equipment to make it happen safely and cleanly.
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, many contractors folded. But the Angelo family didn’t quit — we restructured and rebuilt, adapting to the new world with resilience and hustle. That same determination drives Angelo Underground LLC today.
From our home base in Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, we continue to support contractors, engineers, municipalities, and homeowners throughout the region — offering old-school work ethic with modern-day precision.
