Private Utility Locating in New Mexico
Electromagnetic and GPR locating of private electric, gas, water, sewer, telecom and fiber lines that 811 doesn't mark.
Beyond 811
Public locate services only mark lines owned by utilities. Lines on the private side of the meter, including site lighting, irrigation, storm, data and abandoned services, are your responsibility to find before digging.
EM first, GPR where it counts
Electromagnetic locating traces conductive lines and tracer wire. GPR is added for non-metallic pipe, unknown infrastructure and congested corridors where EM alone isn't enough.
Who uses it
Civil contractors, engineers and surveyors, developers and property owners, and directional boring crews.
