A Closer Look
Utility Line Locating
Utility line locating, sometimes just called line locating, is the process of tracing and marking individual underground lines using electromagnetic locating equipment. For lines that don't carry a detectable signal, like older plastic or concrete pipe, we pair it with GPR scanning to fill the gap. It's the fieldwork you see before excavation: flagged and painted lines, confirmed depths, and a clear picture of what's below before a shovel goes in the ground.
