Pipe Locating Services
Don’t start blindly digging during your next residential or commercial project without knowing exactly where your pipes are located. Let our team of experts use their
pipe locating technology to identify any pipework that lies below the surface.
Cable Locating
If you’re about to commence any digging or construction work on your residential or commercial property, don’t risk accidentally cutting into
cable and being left with an expensive repair bill. Our team will locate all cables so you can enjoy an incident free build.
Thermal Camera Imaging
Our
thermal imaging specialist, Declan, is a certified and accredited Thermographer. If you’re worried that your residential or commercial property has a problem which is hard to identify, check out our thermal imaging page to learn more about how we can help you.
Ground Penetrating Radar
For any project, it’s vital to plan ahead; for coring, drilling or cutting, even more so! Rely on our
ground penetrating radar to map out your underground utilities. Whether it’s a concrete slab or asphalt road in the way, we’ll see through it! This advanced, non-invasive technology uses radio waves to create an image of the subsurface. We can identify conduits, steel reinforcing, cables and more. Carry out your work confidently.
Water Leak Detection
Left unchecked, leaky pipes can cause structural damage to your home or business, as well as high water bills. However, not all leaks are a straightforward fix—some occur under concrete slabs, paving and foundations. If you suspect an inaccessible leak, contact our professionals! We’re equipped with advanced technology and the right tools to carefully
detect and repair leaks.
CCTV Pipe Inspections
Got a blocked pipe? Our qualified plumbers accurately detect and diagnose blockages/breaks using
CCTV technology. During a CCTV pipe inspection, we’ll feed a camera down your pipelines and capture images inside. This will help us determine the best course of action to remedy the situation. Gain peace of mind regarding the integrity of your plumbing systems.
Concrete Scanning
Detecting what’s beneath the surface is critical before drilling or cutting.
Concrete scanning identifies embedded objects such as rebar, conduits, post-tension cables and voids using non-destructive ground-penetrating radar to prevent structural damage.
The Importance of Hiring A Utility Service Locator
The dangers of cutting into live power cables are very real and not to be taken lightly.
That’s why it’s crucial to determine where the cables are located before beginning any excavation work.
We use innovative technology to establish where electricity cables lie and will provide you with a report of their direction and depth to give to your contractor.
The cost to repair the damage is expensive and it will bring your project to a halt. That can be avoided by hiring us to locate your pipes and cables before breaking ground.
We’ll determine where cables, lines and pipes are, what direction they run, and how deep they are.
This knowledge will allow you to plan your project around this information to minimise or eliminate the risks altogether. If you’d like to speak to a utility locating expert, give us a call on 0434 635 134 today to speak to a member of our friendly staff!
