Precision Underground Pipe Location
Every sewer repair, trenchless installation, or property construction project that involves digging near existing sewer infrastructure requires accurate pipe location first. Digging without locating risks striking and rupturing your sewer lateral — turning a planned project into an emergency repair.
We use an electronic sonde transmitter deployed via the sewer camera, combined with an above-ground receiver, to trace the precise route and depth of your sewer line across your property. The result is a reliable, accurate pipe map that guides excavation, repair planning, and construction safely.
