SUBSURFACE UTILITY LOCATING
SUBSURFACE UTILITY LOCATING
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Before you break ground, utility mapping is critical to understanding what might lay beneath you. Bravo’s Underground Boring uses Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) to find undetectable underground utilities and structures.
From the project delays to the additional repair cost, we all know the impact of a broken pipe or channel on a project. This is why pre-planning is a crucial investment that could save you thousands of dollars in labor and time.
The utility locating companies notified will identify and mark only primary public utilities, so it’s up to you to keep track of what else is there, on your own.
Private Utilities are the buried lines after the meter or main lines.
If you have a curbside meter then your property will not get marked by the participating member utility locators. Other buried utilities that generally are not marked include but may not be limited to: sewer lines, private lighting, sprinklers, fire mains, secondary electric lines to detached garages, and septic lines.
