We speak the utility colour code — the same marking colours crews paint on the street every day. Pick your network and see which instruments and methods fit the job.
Transmission and distribution networks demand depth-of-cover assurance and coating integrity. We cover route mapping, depth verification and full-length DC coating fault surveys, from city gas mains to multi-hundred-kilometre trunk lines.
Water utilities lose revenue to leaks they cannot see and damage pipes they cannot find. Acoustic leak detection combined with precise locating — including non-metallic pipes via GPR — turns unknown losses into a targeted repair list.
Before any excavation near energised networks, cable routes and depths must be fixed precisely. We trace live HV and LV routes, confirm depth with radar where records are doubtful, and deliver marked, documented corridors for civil works.
Fibre routes concentrate high value into narrow ducts. Precise route and duct-bank location keeps backhaul intact through roadworks, foundation excavation and new network builds.
City-scale utility censuses and void detection under roads. Radar resolves non-metallic sewers and subsurface voids; electromagnetic methods resolve the energised estate. Output feeds directly into GIS and as-built records.
Refineries, power stations and process plants concentrate buried services, rebar and voids in a small footprint — with the highest consequences for a mistake. We survey inside live facilities under strict permit and QA regimes.
Electromagnetic locating is fast and precise on conductive, energised utilities — and blind to plastic, clay and abandoned lines. Ground penetrating radar sees what EM cannot, but demands the right frequency and operator skill for the soil. On serious projects we deploy both, which is exactly why our integrated GPR + locator platform exists.
Send soil type, target and depth. We will tell you what is realistically achievable before you commit to equipment or a survey.
