Private utility locating in Georgia
Investigate private underground utilities with ground penetrating radar (GPR) to help teams plan excavation and identify potential conflicts. Coordinate locating with hydro excavation and potholing to expose and verify utilities where the project requires it.
Where this service fits
Private property can contain underground utilities that a project team needs to investigate before excavation. Private utility locating helps build a clearer picture of possible routes and conflicts within the requested work area. Ground penetrating radar is one tool for that investigation. Where the project requires confirmation, locating can be coordinated with daylighting or potholing to expose a utility.

Jobsite planning & safety
Share the property location, exact work area, planned excavation and any records of existing utilities. Describe the surfaces, access restrictions and known utility types. We discuss the investigation area, required utility coordination and the limits of the available methods so the team can plan further verification before excavation.
Detection depends on materials and site conditions. Private locating complements required utility notification; it does not guarantee every utility is found.
Before you book
Does private locating replace required utility notification?
No. Private locating complements required utility notification and project coordination. Discuss the applicable notification process, existing markings, private infrastructure and site responsibilities before excavation.
Can a locate guarantee every buried utility will be found?
No method can guarantee that every buried utility will be identified. Materials, depth, soil and access affect the investigation. Plans, site knowledge and direct exposure may be needed alongside locating to resolve a particular conflict.
