Surveying – If existing site plans are not available, Trillium will collect boundary information and research the zone classification, locate any ground utilities and provide recommendations on the best locations for your tower and equipment.

Schedules –This schedule will align with our engineering and construction timeframes and we will keep you in the loop with regular schedule updates.

Pricing – Based on our years of experience, Trillium can quickly and competitively determine a fair value for any project. Our detailed cost estimating and close oversight of your project will keep change orders to a minimum, protecting your bottom line.

Build to Suit
Land Acquisition – Trillium is planning several sites around central Minnesota for which we will facilitate the land acquisition process. We can work directly with the land owners, investors, and governing bodies to secure the purchase and proper zoning authority.

Engineering – Adhering to TIA/EIA standards, Trillium’s certified engineers will conduct all surveying and engineering of the site and make recommendations on location, tower style, and structural considerations to ensure tower durability and safety.

Permits - Trillium will identify and work with the applicable municipal, county and state jurisdictions and provide you with a schedule for obtaining their approvals.

Leasing – Our build to suit properties will be available for ownership as well as leasing opportunities. We can facilitate the marketing and leasing process to develop desirable and long-term tenant arrangements.

Management – Trillium’s field supervisors have more than 10 years of experience in project management to address contractor questions, monitor corporate and federal safety standards and document construction activity. In addition, we can represent your interests in the permit and leasing process.

Maintenance – Providing site inspection, lighting repairs and systems testing as well as conducting structural upgrades, Trillium will ensure that your site is well maintained and attractive for clients.

Construction
Site Development – With the high demand for new towers, Trillium offers full site development that includes soil borings, access, field stakeouts, baselines, fencing, and coordination of permits and utility services. We make sure that utility recommendations match our standards of construction. We can also assist with FAA filings and site inspections.

Tower Erection –When you are ready to build, Trillium’s team is among the most experienced and qualified in the region. With no less than two years of experience per crewmember, our teams have worked through every contingency and weather condition. We promote the highest standards of safety and quality on guyed tower installations, co-locations, self-support structures, and many types of teleco buildings.

Structural Upgrades – Trillium offers many levels of site and structural improvements, from new fencing and road improvements to foundational repair and guyed tower protection. See our Product page for more information.

Disaster Recovery – Count on Trillium to be there when you need to restore service to your customers. High winds, hail, fire or flood, we’ll work round the clock to get you back in business.

Tower Foundations
Self-Support Structures – For larger antenna loads, Trillium recommends self-support towers with a large footprint. We can deliver these towers to meet virtually any application requirement.

Guyed Tower Structures – For the tallest structures, guyed towers offer a high degree of flexibility. Trillium has extensive experience with these anchored structures as well as the application of protective coatings to increase your tower’s longevity.

Communication Buildings – Trillium has constructed a variety of ground structures to support the communication capabilities of each tower. We offer engineering support to determine the most appropriate location and style of these buildings for current and future use.
