Comprehensive Underground Utility Locating in Charlotte
Blood Hound brings field expertise, advanced technology, and a commitment to accuracy to every Charlotte project. Our services help you reduce risk, avoid unnecessary delays, and protect your workers and equipment.
Private Utility Locating
Blood Hound locates private underground utilities that 811 does not mark. Our team identifies power, water, sewer, gas, telecommunications, irrigation lines, and other buried assets across commercial, industrial, and municipal properties.
Our Ground Penetrating (GPR) services provide nondestructive scanning to locate nonmetallic structures, utilities, voids, underground tanks, and unknown anomalies. Real time GPR visuals allow crews to make informed decisions before excavation begins.
Geospatial Services
Blood Hound delivers comprehensive geospatial solutions that support utility locating, concrete scanning, and site mapping. Using advanced tools including ground penetrating radar, 3D laser scanning, and photogrammetry, our team captures accurate subsurface and above ground data.
Vacuum Excavation Services
Vacuum excavation is the safest and most precise method for exposing underground utilities. This controlled, nondestructive approach helps verify depth, confirm location, and validate data gathered from GPR and EM locating.
CCTV Pipe Inspection
Blood Hound uses robotic camera systems to assess stormwater, sanitary, and industrial pipelines. Our CCTV inspections identify infiltration, structural issues, blockages, and other conditions that affect system performance.
Leak Detection
We use correlating and acoustic technology to pinpoint leaks in buried water lines, irrigation systems, and subsurface infrastructure. Accurate leak detection helps prevent waste, reduce repair costs, and minimize damage.
Electromagnetic Locating (EM)
EM locating is a core service used to identify conductive utilities beneath the surface. This method is often combined with GPR and vacuum excavation to create a complete picture of underground conditions.
CAD and GIS Mapping
After completing our field investigations, Blood Hound delivers detailed CAD drawings and GIS files that document utility locations clearly and accurately. These deliverables support design engineers, project managers, and long term facility planning.
Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)
We offer SUE services at QL D, QL C, and QL B levels to support engineering design and site planning. SUE helps reduce uncertainty, prevent conflicts, lower redesign costs, and support compliance with industry standards.
