utility location services

Utility location services involve identifying and marking underground utility lines—such as water, gas, electric, and communication cables—to prevent damage during construction or digging. Professionals use specialized equipment like ground-penetrating radar or electromagnetic detectors and reference utility company maps to accurately pinpoint the locations. This process ensures safety, minimizes service disruptions, and helps avoid costly damage. Utility location services are essential for planning and executing projects that involve excavation, providing a clear picture of underground infrastructure before work begins.
