When this service may be appropriate
Locating can be useful when a sewer route is undocumented, a defect needs targeted access, or a planned repair could affect paving, landscaping, or other underground infrastructure.
How the process typically works
Depending on the equipment and access, a technician may trace a camera transmitter or use other locating methods, mark the estimated route or defect position, and document limitations. Surface locating is not a substitute for required utility marking before excavation.
What affects cost?
Cost depends on site access, the length and complexity of the route, the available inspection equipment, and whether a written map or report is requested.
