Our Story
MM UNDERGROUND LLC was founded in 2019 by uncle and nephew John "Mark" Smithson and Matthew West, both which are Ordained Ministers in the Church of God. MM Underground LLC was built on years of industry experience and a shared commitment to family values. Starting with just one drop plow and one crew, MM has grown steadily over five years to over 50 subcontractors all throughout the Midwest and an extensive back office of locators, managers, and troubleshooters. We value our customers deeply, but we also treat our subcontractors like family, recognizing their crucial role in our success. Together, we continue to grow and strengthen our business with dedication and trust.
