Frequently Asked Questions

How close to your utility locate marks can I safely dig?

We advise our clients to stay 18” to 24” away from any marked utility lines, but there could be limitations that exist on a site-to-site basis.  We will thoroughly discuss the survey results, and any limitations that exist on your project with an onsite representative from your company.

Are you able to locate non-metallic utilities such as clay pipes, concrete pipes, fiber optic cables and PVC pipes?

In most cases we are able to detect non-metallic utility lines using a combination of utility locating technologies.  Each utility locate technician is equipped with everything needed to complete your utility locate survey.

What are your rates for your services?

Please visit our contact us page or give us a call to discuss your project.

How deep below the surface can GPR penetrate?

When used for utility locate surveys, we can typically penetrate to 8-10 feet below the ground surface.  The suitability of ground penetrating radar varies from site to site and the materials being scanned through.

For concrete imaging surveys we typically penetrate to depths of 36” using an array of GPR antennas, and depending on the project requirements.  For slab on grade concrete scanning we can use antennas that we would typically use for outdoor utility locate surveys to achieve depths greater than 36”.

Why Is Private Utility Locating Important?

Each jobsite has risk potential when digging and drilling, we want to keep your projects safe, on time, and on budget.

What type of deliverables do you offer?

In addition to marks on the surface, we offer written reports, utility survey maps, GPS mapping, and satellite overlays.
