Utility Locating & Documenting Services
Safe excavation practices begin well before you break ground. Knowing what types of objects, utilities, and other potential hazards are located under your dig site is crucial for any excavation or construction project. Whether you’re building an apartment complex or installing a home fence, locating underground utilities and properly marking them before you begin digging will keep your project, your crew, and yourself safe.
For a complex dig, it’s critical that any underground utilities and obstructions are fully documented. At Discovery Hydrovac, we’ll locate, mark, and document your dig site so you don’t accidentally hit and damage any subsurface objects.
Call 811 Before You Dig
811 is the national call-before-you-dig phone number. Whether you’re a construction company or a homeowner looking to do some landscaping, you need to call 811 before you begin digging to request any underground utilities are properly marked before you begin your project. That way, you or your construction crew don’t accidentally hit something.
Calling 811 before starting any dig not only keeps those utilities from damage and needing repairs, it keeps you safe. Our team at Discovery Hydrovac works closely with Underground Service Alert (USA) to accurately mark all underground utilities on and around your dig site.
Ensuring all utilities are properly located, marked, and documented before beginning your dig keeps project costs low and your site safe.
