The Myths and Facts About Fiber Internet Installation
Thinking about upgrading to fiber internet but feeling unsure about the installation process? You’re not alone! There are a lot of myths out there about what it takes to get fiber set up at your home. At Prime-One Net, we believe in transparency—so let’s bust some common myths and give you the real facts about fiber installation in Saline.
Myth #1: Fiber Installation Tears Up Your Yard
Fact:
With modern underground construction methods, like horizontal directional drilling, fiber installation is minimally invasive. Prime-One Net installs fiber optic cables in protective plastic conduit beneath your property, leaving your lawn, garden, and driveway largely undisturbed. Most customers are surprised at how little their yard is affected—and we always aim to leave things as tidy as we found them.

Myth #2: Fiber Installation Takes Weeks (or Months)
Fact:
While building the main fiber network in a neighborhood can take time, once your street is ready, individual home installation is fast. Prime-One Net typically completes the install within 24 hours of your request—often the same day. Our local team schedules a convenient time, and most installs are done in just a few hours.
