Once you’ve received a door hanger, that means Glo Fiber or a Glo Fiber Contractor will be working on or around your property to place fiber optic lines in about 24 hours.

 

All fiber construction performed on private property is completed within an easement or right-of-way. Crews may need access to a backyard if it falls within that easement.

Public and private utility lines.

Public Utility Lines

You may notice flags and/or paint markings indicating the proposed path of the new cable and the location of the existing utilities on your property.

Private Utility Lines

Please be advised that private lines like sprinkler systems or invisible fences are unable to be marked. If you have any private underground lines, you will need to mark those lines to avoid any damage to those facilities.
