Private Utility Locating Services in Florida
Professional underground utility detection using electromagnetic locating and GPR technology. We locate all buried utilities — including private lines that 811 never marks — for contractors, developers, and municipalities.
What Is Private Utility Locating Services?
Private utility locating is the professional detection and marking of underground utilities that are NOT covered by the 811 public one-call system. This includes private service laterals, on-site utility networks, and lines on private property. Using electromagnetic (EM) locating equipment and ground penetrating radar, our certified technicians identify and mark every buried utility on your site.
Why You Need This Service
Calling 811 is required by law — but it only protects you from striking publicly-owned utility mains. On most project sites in Florida, 40–60% of buried utilities are private and will NOT be marked by 811. This creates significant risk for contractors: utility strikes, worker injury, project shutdowns, and costly repair bills. Private utility locating eliminates this risk before your crew ever breaks ground.
