A New Wave of Wisper
is Coming
We’re Bringing Fiber Internet to Your Hometown!
The Construction Process
Step 1: Planning & Design
The process begins with our engineering team creating a detailed plan to bring Wisper Fiber to your area as efficiently as possible. You might see our crews in your neighborhood collecting information to guide this plan. Our team determines the best way to install the Fiber – whether underground, on existing utility poles, or a combination of both. We also coordinate closely with local authorities to secure all necessary approvals and permits for the project.
Step 2: Identifying Utilities
Public Utilities: Once our construction plans are approved, public utility companies are notified to come mark the locations of water, gas, and electrical lines using small flags or temporary spray paint. Please don’t move or remove these markers—we’ll handle cleanup once construction is finished. The paint used is water-based and will naturally fade with time. Tampering with the markers will require the utility companies to re-do the work, resulting in a delay of Fiber construction.
Private Utilities: If you have private utilities such as sprinklers, an electric pet fence, or a septic system, please mark them ahead of construction to avoid any issues. Utility companies do not mark private utilities. If you notice any issues or have concerns, please reach out to us at 800-765-7772.
Step 3: Construction
Now it’s time to build our Fiber network! Based on the custom plan for your area, our crews may use specialized equipment to place Fiber along the public rights-of-way:
-
Aerial – on existing utility poles. For everyone’s safety, tree trimming may be required. If we need to access poles in an easement behind your property, we’ll let you know if we anticipate any issues with alleyways, driveways, or other obstacles. A majority of our Fiber builds will be aerial.
-
Underground – trenching cables beneath the surface. This may be done along the rights-of-way or on easements that may be on your property (for example, a backyard easement). Don’t worry, we’ve already worked with your town to secure the proper approvals during the planning phase.
-
Both – a combination of aerial and underground methods.

Once installation is complete, our professional team will splice and test the Fiber to ensure you have a lightning-fast, reliable connection.
Step 4: Cleanup
We know construction can sometimes be disruptive, but our crews take great care to protect your property and will clean up once the work is complete. If you have any concerns during or after construction, please give us a call and we’ll be happy to assist.
