Keeping Underground Infrastructure Safe: A Look at Line Locating Services

Line locating encompasses a range of services crucial for ensuring the safety and integrity of underground infrastructure. This includes tasks like:

Centerline Marking & Marker Replacement: Clearly marking the centerline of buried utilities with paint or flags helps identify their approximate location. Replacing faded or damaged markers ensures continued visibility for future reference.

Line Locating: Using specialized equipment, technicians pinpoint the exact path of underground lines. This precise information is vital for planning excavation projects and preventing accidental damage to utilities.

Right-of-Way Boundary Marking: Identifying the designated area where a utility company can install and maintain their equipment helps avoid trespassing and disruptions during construction or maintenance activities.

Exploratory Digs: In areas with unclear utility layouts, small, targeted excavations may be necessary to confirm the presence, depth, and type of underground lines.

Anomaly Digs: When locating equipment detects potential inconsistencies underground, exploratory digs are conducted to investigate the anomaly and identify any potential issues with buried utilities.



By employing these comprehensive line locating services, we can significantly reduce the risk of accidents during excavation projects, protect vital infrastructure, and ensure the continued smooth operation of essential services.
