Private utility locating is the process of identifying and mapping underground utilities on private property. We use specialized equipment and techniques to locate various utility lines (water, gas, sewer, electrical, communication) that are buried beneath the ground.

​

The primary purpose of private utility locating is to prevent accidental damage to utility lines during construction, excavation, or any other digging activity. By identifying the location of underground utilities, property owners and contractors can take the necessary precautions to avoid costly utility strikes, service disruptions, injuries, and potential legal liabilities. It is highly recommended that property owners and contractors intending to undertake any work involving digging to have all utility lines located and mapped out before excavation.

​

It's important to note that private utility locating is distinct from public utility locating, which involves identifying and marking utility lines in public areas, typically done by utility companies or government agencies through the national call-before-you-dig service. Private utility locating focuses specifically on private properties, such as residential, commercial, or industrial sites.
