Locating Services We Offer
Underground Service Locating/Cable & Pipe Locating
Can you confidently say you know the exact location of every service cable and pipe under the ground you’re about to break?
The truth is, digging and excavating blindly is rolling the dice on your and your workers’ lives, and could be negligent in the eyes of Australian law. Your duty of care lies in taking the necessary steps and safety precautions to put your workers in the best position to dig safely and diligently.
Before you break ground, we gather the most up to date DBYD information in Geelong and surrounding areas, and use it in unison with our world-class equipment to accurately pinpoint and locate:
- Electricity cables (HV & LV)
- Gas lines/pipes
- Telecommunications cables (licence to access Telstra & Optus assets)
- Water pipes
- Poly pipes (specialised equipment)
- Sewerage pipes
Aerial Services & Inspections
There are things we can see from the air that we can’t see from the ground.
We give your project wings with the latest DJI drone technology to provide high-resolution images and footage of your site and projects so you can get the best view of your work.
Our drone can give you:
- Aerial site inspections for building and construction projects
- Clear and accurate images of assets on the ground
- Stunning footage to showcase your recent projects
- Any impressive imagery you need from an eagle-eye view
CCTV Camera Inspection
Getting video footage of the state of your pipes and underground assets can be the fastest and most accurate way to know exactly what you’re dealing with.
We’ve all heard the stories of questionable things people find in drainage and sewerage systems. It’s always a mystery how they get there (and how some things can even fit down a toilet).
We help clear up some of the mystery with our CCTV pipe and drain inspection.
We can provide you with clear video footage of:
- The structural integrity and health of your pipes and drains
- Any drain or pipe blockages and what’s causing them (no judgement)
- Damage or compromised areas of your drains and pipes
- Pollutants putting your drains and pipes at risk
- Any other risk factors for the future health of your drains and pipes
- Mapping out the locations and structure of pipes and drains for survey references
Concrete Scanning
There’s a lot more inside and below concrete than meets the eye and it can be filled with hidden surprises (not the good kind).
Before you cut, core, or drill into concrete, we use our ground penetrating radar equipment to locate and provide accurate and detailed images of:
- Post tension cables
- Steel reinforcement
- Utility assets (yep, they’re buried in there too)
- Voids
- Any other structural elements that might endanger you or the concrete’s integrity
Ground Penetrating Radar
Imagine getting a crystal-clear picture of underground assets without lifting even an inch of soil.
Using radio waves that provide feedback and paint a picture of the subsurface, our Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is our most valuable asset for locating every other asset.
Our GPR is the perfect choice to detect those harder-to-find materials and to give you the most detailed map of the ground you’re about to excavate.
We use our GPR to locate:
- Concrete and metals
- Plastic, PVC and poly pipe
- Air pockets, voids, and changes in the ground
- Natural minerals and geological materials
- Rocks, tree roots, and other natural obstructions
- Pre-excavated or disturbed ground
- Cursed/hidden graveyards from 80s horror films
Land Surveying
Whether you’re about to start a reno project, develop your property, or if your neighbour, Keith, is dodgy and moved the boundary fence while you were sleeping, you’re going to need a land surveyor.
Hiring a surveyor before you kick off any land development project could save you significant money, splitting headaches, needless disputes, and precious time. We use our specialised surveying equipment and advanced mathematics to report:
- Land levels
- Boundary lines (we’re watching you, Keith)
- Visible utilities
- Potential for subdivision
- Easements and water access
- Other natural and/or man-made features
