Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Dycom Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), Dycom Investments, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Investments”) and the subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedule A hereto (the “Subsidiaries” and, together with the Company and Investments, the “Registrants”), in connection with the preparation and filing by the Registrants of an automatic registration statement on Form S‑3 (the “Registration Statement”) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the offering from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, of (i) debt securities of the Company (the “Company Debt Securities”) which may be senior or subordinated, (ii) debt securities of Investments (the “Investments Debt Securities” and, together with the Company Debt Securities, the “Debt Securities”) which may be senior or subordinated, (iii) guarantees of the Debt Securities (the “Guarantees”) by one or more of the Registrants (each a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”), (iv) common stock, par value $0.33 1/3 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”), (v) preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share, of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”), which may be issued as such or in the form of depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”) evidenced by depositary receipts issued against deposit of shares of Preferred Stock pursuant to a deposit agreement to be entered into between the Company and a bank or trust company selected by the Company (the “Depositary”), (vi) warrants to purchase Debt Securities, Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares, Common Stock or any combination thereof (the “Warrants”), (vii) securities purchase contracts of the Company (the “Securities Purchase Contracts”), obligating the holders thereof to purchase from or sell to the Company, or the Company to sell to or purchase from such holders, shares of Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares or Debt Securities at a future date or dates and (viii) units of the Company consisting of one or more of Company Debt Securities, Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Depositary Shares, Warrants or Securities Purchase Contracts (the “Units” and, together with the Debt Securities, the Guarantees, the Common Stock, the Preferred Stock, the Depositary Shares, the Warrants and the Securities Purchase Contracts, the “Securities”). The offering of the Securities will be as set forth in the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”), as supplemented by one or more supplements to the Prospectus (each supplement, a “Prospectus Supplement”).

The Company Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture (the “Company Indenture”) among the Company, the Guarantors, if any, and the trustee party thereto (the “Trustee”), a form of which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. The Investments Debt Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture (the “Investments Indenture” and, together with the Company Indenture, the “Indentures”) among Investments, the Guarantors, if any, and the Trustee, a form of which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. The Preferred Stock will be issued in one or more series and the relative powers, designations, preferences, rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions of such Preferred Stock will be set forth in one or more certificates of designation (each, a “Certificate of Designation”). The Warrants will be issued under one or more warrant agreements (each, a “Warrant Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and the warrant agent party thereto (the “Warrant Agent”). The Depositary Shares will be issued in one or more series pursuant to one or more deposit agreements (each, a “Deposit Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and the depositary party thereto (the “Depositary”). The Securities Purchase Contracts will be issued pursuant to one or more purchase contract agreements (each, a “Purchase Contract Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and the securities purchase contract agent party thereto (the “Purchase Contract Agent”). The Units will be issued pursuant to one or more unit agreements (each, a “Unit Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and the unit agent party thereto (the “Unit Agent”). Each Certificate of Designation, Deposit Agreement, Warrant Agreement, Purchase Contract Agreement and Unit Agreement, as applicable, will be in a form to be filed as an exhibit to a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company in connection with a specific offering and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement.

We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions.

“Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including in each case the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto) that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the transactions governed by the Securities Documents, and for purposes of assumption paragraph (f) above, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

The Covered Guarantor is a limited liability company validly existing and in good standing under the law of the State of New York.

The Covered Guarantor has the limited liability company power to execute, deliver and perform the Guarantees to which it is a party.

The Guarantees, when duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action, executed by an authorized signatory and delivered, will be validly authorized, executed and delivered for corporate law purposes by the Covered Guarantor.

The Company Indenture, when duly executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantors, if any, will be the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company and the applicable Guarantors, enforceable against the Company and such Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

The Investments Indenture, when duly executed and delivered by Investments and the Guarantors, if any, will be the legal, valid and binding obligation of Investments and the applicable Guarantors, enforceable against Investments and such Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

Any Securities consisting of Company Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and will be entitled to the benefits of the Company Indenture.

Any Securities consisting of Investments Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of Investments, enforceable against Investments in accordance with their terms and will be entitled to the benefits of the Investments Indenture.

Any Securities consisting of Guarantees will constitute valid and binding obligations of the applicable Guarantors, enforceable against such Guarantors in accordance with their terms and will be entitled to the benefits of the applicable Indenture.

Any Securities consisting of Depositary Shares will be validly issued and will be entitled to the benefits of the Deposit Agreement.

10.

Any Securities consisting of Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

11.

Any Securities consisting of Securities Purchase Contracts will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

12.

Any Securities consisting of Units will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

(a)

Our opinions are subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers).

(b)

Our opinions are also subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c)

Our opinions are limited to Generally Applicable Law and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other law. Where matters of applicable law, other than Generally Applicable Law, are relevant to such opinions, we have without independent investigation on our part assumed the accuracy and, to the extent necessary in connection with the opinions contained herein, relied upon the opinions, dated the date hereof, furnished to you of (i) Akerman LLP, special Florida counsel to the Company and certain Guarantors, (ii) Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, P.C., special Georgia counsel to certain Guarantors, (iii) Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg LLP, special Illinois counsel to a certain Guarantor (iv) Brown & Bunch, PLLC, special North Carolina counsel to a certain Guarantor, (v) Cokinos | Young, P.C., special Texas counsel as to a certain Guarantor, (vi) Davis Wright Tremaine LLP, special Washington counsel to a certain Guarantor, (vii) Dorsey & Whitney LLP, special Minnesota counsel to certain Guarantors, (viii) Fennemore Craig, P.C., special Arizona counsel to a certain Guarantor, (ix) K&L Gates LLP, special Delaware counsel to certain Guarantors, (x) Liskow & Lewis, special Louisiana counsel to a certain Guarantor, and (xi) McElroy, Deutsch, Mulvaney & Carpenter, LLP, special Colorado counsel to a certain Guarantor, in each case delivered to you on the date hereof, and our opinions are subject to the same assumptions, qualifications and limitations with respect to matters of Florida, Georgia, Illinois, North Carolina, Texas, Washington, Minnesota, Arizona, Delaware, Louisiana and Colorado law expressed in each such opinion.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind, including any change of law or fact, that may occur after the date of this opinion letter and which might affect the opinions expressed herein.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus. In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
