Failure to detect unknown private utilities buried beneath the soil can have catastrophic consequences for the homeowner, or private contractor. Consider deciding to excavate the back yard for a new inground pool; everything is going to plan, until you inadvertently cut into that 480 volt, 220 electrical conduit that provides power to the entire street. If you are lucky enough not to be electrocuted, you will be held liable for the repair, and all incidental costs, up to and including any damage to your neighbors’ properties as a result of the power loss. Our utility locating service combines the best technology available on the market with GPR, where applicable, to provide a hassle-free, cost-effective risk mitigation against such a scenario.
