Private Utility Locating in Lions Bay

Public utility locates cover only the public-owned portion of buried infrastructure. Everything on private property — water lines from the meter, gas lines past the meter, irrigation, drainage, septic, private hydro, fibre, communication — is your responsibility to identify before excavation. Our private utility locating combines ground-penetrating radar, electromagnetic locating, and where applicable sondes and tracer wires to map every detectable subsurface line. Deliverables include site marks, photo documentation and a referenced map for the project file. We do this work routinely for general contractors, electrical contractors, plumbers, landscape architects and homeowners across Greater Vancouver.
