Construction

How does the construction process work for installing Tachus Fiber Internet in my area?

First, we need to be safe dig partners, so we call 811 to get existing utilities located and marked. Our construction vendors will contact Texas 811 to help find and mark existing underground utility lines with flags and paint.​​ In addition to flags, water-based paint is used by 811 so it will wash away after a short time. All other flag colors are Class B utilities.

Our crews use directional boring, which is minimally invasive, leaving the ground’s surface undisturbed. The directional drill is used to place green conduit in the ground along the right-of-way of each street to which we plan to bring our service.

Conduit is placed in the ground to create a protected path for the Fiber.Sometimes, contractors will dig a hole in the yard called a pothole. This is a temporary hole we use to cross other utility lines safely. A tarp is used to protect the grass and the holes are backfilled daily for safety.All restorations will be made when construction on your street is complete. If you have any issues OPEN A TICKET by calling 832.791.1100, emailing us at [email protected], or visiting tachus.com/contact.

Because our crews use directional boring to install the conduit, the effect their work has on the terrain is minimally invasive, leaving the ground’s surface undisturbed. This process also involves installing a small, buried access hatch, called a flowerpot, in front of each home.

A flowerpot is a small, buried access hatch similar to a round sprinkler valve box in front of each home. These access points are green and flush with the ground to be as minimally invasive as possible. They are accessed during customer installation which brings blazing-fast fiber internet to your home.

The final phase of construction is when we work behind the scenes and bring the Fiber to your neighborhood. You may now see Fiber pullers using the flowerpot access points to pull the Fiber down your street. Once the Fiber is spliced and tested, it is then connected back to the Tachus cabinet which will prepare for connectivity to your home.

All that waiting is about to pay off because you’ll soon be ready to schedule your installation of lightning-fast internet to your home! If you registered early as a VIP, we reach out to you by email to schedule a window for your home installation. From there, one of our technicians brings the Fiber into your home.

How long does it typically take to complete construction in a neighborhood?

Well, it’s a bit like asking how long a road trip will take—it depends! Our construction speed varies based on the neighborhood’s size, complexity, and even the type of soil we’re dealing with. Throw in a mix of things like weather surprises or access challenges, and you’ve got a unique adventure. But we’re on a mission to build faster and better each time. We’re always working hard to wrap up construction within 3-6 months in most communities, so you can start enjoying Tachus Fiber Internet sooner rather than later!

Will the installation of Tachus Fiber Internet cause any disruptions to my property or landscaping?

We know that construction can sometimes look very messy, but we promise that once construction is completed for your entire community, crews will come back through to restore to pre-construction conditions. If construction work has been completed in your area, and you notice that your property has yet to be restored, please give us a call at 832.791.1100 or email [email protected] to open a ticket.

Will Tachus Fiber Internet construction affect other utilities on my property?

Tachus works closely with utility providers to ensure a smooth installation process. Our construction vendors take precautions to prevent any interference with existing utilities by reaching out to 811 to get existing utilities located and marked. Texas 811 will help find and mark existing underground utility lines with flags and paint.​​ Should you experience a disruption with your utilities, you should contact your utility provider first to make sure your outage is addressed and resolved quickly. Please also give our customer support team a call at 832.791.1100 or email them at [email protected].

What measures does Tachus take to ensure the safety of residents during the construction process?

Safety is a top priority for Tachus. Our construction vendors take precautions to prevent any interference with existing utilities by reaching out to 811 to get existing utilities located and marked. Texas 811 will help find and mark existing underground utility lines with flags and paint.​​ Our construction vendors follow industry best practices, comply with safety regulations, and takes precautions to ensure the well-being of residents and their property during the construction process.

Does Tachus need approval to dig in the easement on my property or is that automatically granted?

Tachus generally has the legal right, granted through easements or right of way agreements, to access and use specific areas on private properties for the installation of fiber optic infrastructure. Property owners do not need to provide individual approval for this purpose. However, we understand the importance of communication, and our contractors will keep property owners informed about the construction with door hangers. If you have specific concerns or questions about easements, our customer support team is available to provide clarification and address any inquiries you may have.

Can Tachus dig in the backyard easement on my property, or is the construction limited to the front easement?

We stick to the front yard for our fiber optic installations. We understand the importance of privacy and maintaining the aesthetics of your property. Our goal is to keep disruptions to a minimum. If you have any concerns or specific questions about where and how we’re working on your property, feel free to reach out. Our team is here to provide additional details and address any inquiries you may have, simply submit a ticket by emailing us and opening a ticket at [email protected].

Can I talk to someone about concerns or issues I incurred during the Tachus construction process?

If you have any concerns whatsoever during the construction process, please send a photo of the damage, your address, and a good call back number to [email protected], and someone will be out shortly to assess the damage and construct a plan to resolve the issue as soon as possible.

Will you move my flowers/potted plants/etc. before you build in my yard?

Unfortunately, we are unable to move or to care for plants that are in an area where we need to build. Before construction crews come into your neighborhood to build our network, however, we will be sure to leave door hangers so that you have time to move your plants into a safe spot.

What are easements and road rights-of-ways?

Easements and road rights-of-way are certain rights to access and use public and private property. Some state and local laws authorize utilities and other service providers, like Tachus, to use rights-of-way and easements.

Why are you in my yard without permission?

To bring Tachus Fiber Internet to a new area, a whole lot of heavy lifting must happen. Our carefully crafted design plans require infrastructure to be built in the entire community, which sometimes requires us to access rights-of-way or easements that could fall next to or across your property. A lot of the network we build is placed within areas called easements or rights-of-way, which are often adjacent to or across private property. We work with the appropriate local authorities to obtain the right to utilize these locations, just like other service providers (such as water and electricity).

How can I stay informed throughout the construction process?

Secure your spot as a Tachus VIP the moment we open reservations in your area! Enjoy perks like your first month of service, priority installation, and receive exclusive email updates throughout the construction process to stay in the loop.

Installation

When can I schedule my install?

You can schedule your install once construction is 100% complete in your area. If you are a Tachus VIP, you will receive an email as soon as your address is ready for install. If you are not a Tachus VIP, be sure to regularly check your address at TACHUS.COM

What does the install process entail?

The install process consists of two steps.

What is the difference between a modem and a router?

Think of a modem as the translator between your home and the internet service provider (ISP). Its job is to convert the signals from your ISP into a form that your devices at home can understand, and vice versa. It’s like the bridge that allows your home devices to communicate with the internet.

Now, imagine the router as a traffic director. Once the modem brings the internet into your home, the router takes over and manages how the data is distributed among your devices. It assigns unique addresses to each device in your home (like your computer, smartphone, or smart TV), making sure that the right data goes to the right place. It’s like a dispatcher that organizes and directs the flow of data within your home network.

General Fiber-optic internet Info

What is fiber-optic internet?

Fiber-optic internet is a super-fast type of internet connection. Instead of using traditional copper wires, it sends data using thin strands of glass, using light pulses. This allows information to travel quickly, making activities like video calls, online gaming, and downloading large files faster and smoother. It’s like upgrading to a speedier highway for your internet data.

How does fiber-optic internet work?

Fiber-optic internet works by sending data using thin strands of glass called fiber-optic cables. These cables transmit information using light pulses, allowing data to travel very quickly. It’s like using beams of light to send and receive information, making the internet super-fast and reliable.

What are the advantages to fiber-optic internet?

Speed: Fiber-optic internet offers significantly faster speeds compared to traditional broadband technologies like DSL or cable. This is because light signals can travel much faster than electrical signals.

Reliability: Fiber-optic cables are less susceptible to interference and signal degradation over long distances. They are also resistant to electromagnetic interference, providing a more stable and reliable internet connection.

Symmetrical Speeds: With 100% pure fiber-optic internet you enjoy symmetrical upload and download speeds. This means that the upload speed is as fast as the download speed, which is crucial for activities like video conferencing, online gaming, and uploading large files.

Capacity: Fiber-optic cables have a much higher capacity for data transmission compared to traditional copper cables. This means that fiber-optic networks can handle more data and support more devices simultaneously.

Future-proofing: Fiber-optic infrastructure is considered a future-proof technology, as it has the potential to support even higher speeds as technology evolves. Upgrades to the electronics on either end of the fiber can increase data transmission speeds without the need to replace the cables.

What does it mean to have symmetrical internet speeds?

Having symmetrical internet speeds means that your upload speed is just as fast as your download speed. In other words, sending and receiving data happens at similar speeds. This is beneficial for activities like video calls, online gaming, and uploading files because both uploading and downloading happen quickly and without one being much slower than the other.

What is the difference between cable and fiber?

The main difference between cable and fiber internet is how they transmit data. Cable internet uses copper coaxial cables, while fiber internet uses thin strands of glass called fiber-optic cables. Fiber is faster and more reliable because it sends data using light pulses, while cable relies on electrical signals. So, fiber is like using light-speed lanes for your internet, making it quicker and more efficient compared to cable.

What is the difference between Mbps (megabit) and Gig (gigabit)?

Mbps, short for “megabits per second,” is just a fancy way of saying how fast your internet connection is. It’s like the speedometer for your internet. If you’ve got a 300 Mbps internet plan, that’s your top speed for downloading and uploading stuff. So, if you’re grabbing files or streaming videos, that 300 megabits per second is your limit. Upgrade to a 600 Mbps plan, and bam, things speed up.

The more megabits per second you’ve got, the zippier your internet. Now, Gig, is an abbreviation for Gigabit. It takes your speed up a notch. One gigabit is a whopping billion bytes of data every second. Just like with Mbps, the more gigabits you have, the faster your whole internet connection becomes.

Are there any data caps on my internet connection?

Absolutely not! We don’t believe in that. There is NO data shortage on our network so there are no caps or limits to the amount of data you can send or receive.

Referral Program

How does the referral program work?

It’s simple. Each Tachus customer has a unique referral link that is easy to share with friends and family.

About our internet Plans

How do I know which Tachus Fiber Internet speed is best for me?

Choosing the right Tachus Fiber Internet speed for your needs depends on several factors, including your online activities, the number of devices connected to your network, and the number of users in your household. Enjoy symmetrical speeds, lifetime prices and no fees ever with Tachus. Here are some steps to help you determine the appropriate speed:
1. Identify your internet activities:
Casual Browsing: If you mainly use the internet for basic browsing social media, and email, a lower-speed plan may be sufficient.
Streaming: If you frequently stream videos in high definition (HD) or 4K, you’ll need higher speeds. Streaming services often provide recommended speeds for optimal performance.
Online Gaming: If you are an online gamer, especially for multiplayer games, you’ll want a plan with low latency and sufficient bandwidth to handle gaming data.
2. Consider the number of users and devices:
More users and devices connected simultaneously require higher speeds. If you have a large family or multiple devices running concurrently (smartphones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, etc.), a faster plan is advisable.
3. Understand Upload and Download Speeds:
internet plans usually provide both upload and download speeds. Upload speeds are crucial for activities like video conferencing, online gaming, and uploading large files. Ensure that both upload and download speeds meet your requirements.
4. Future-Proofing: If you anticipate an increase in your internet usage or plan to add more devices in the future, consider opting for a slightly faster plan to accommodate potential growth.

It means that we plan to bring our 100% Fiber network to you, and you can become a Tachus VIP before we finish construction in your area.

To be a VIP, all you must do is reserve your address for only $10 before construction is complete, and you’re in! From there, you’ll get EXCLUSIVE perks, including priority installation, your first month of service is covered, assistance with the setup of your Wi-Fi devices, and you will get construction updates along the way. This is a savings of up to $229!
