Why
You Need Private Utility Locating
The law requires you to call 811 and have your public utilities marked before you dig, but public utility companies will only locate the facilities they own (utilities that run meter to main like electric, gas, oil, sewer, telephone, and water).
We locate and mark any and all underground utilities and structures.
It’s not just underground...it’s under control.®

811
Locates the Public utilities. These are utilities that are owned by the utility companies. 811 will locate these utilities from the main to the box.
CCTV
Closed Circuit Television lines. If these are cut you will not have a security system until it is fixed.
Diesel Tank
Any underground tank is considered a private utility
Irrigation
All irrigation and sprinkler systems are private underground lines that need to get marked.
Lot Lights
These lines power the lights in the parking lots. This is a common one that people think will be marked by 811.
Sewer
Sewer from the main to the building is private.
Fire / Water
Extremely important to be marked. This is another one that people think will be marked by 811 and is not.
