Know exactly where your pipe runs and how deep it is before you dig, build, plant or repair.
Planning a pool, a fence, a deck or a repair? Hitting a sewer line is expensive and unpleasant. A camera with a built-in transmitter sends a signal that a locator on the surface can follow, so we can mark the route and depth of the pipe, and the exact spot of any problem found on camera.
We paint and flag the line so excavators, landscapers and contractors can see it. For repairs, locating means a small, precise excavation rather than a big dig, which saves money and protects your landscaping.
