Why Should I Call?
There are three important reasons to contact Call-Before-You-Dig before digging.
Knowing where potentially dangerous underground utility services lie greatly reduces the chances of causing severe injury, or worse, by hitting them with heavy digging equipment.
The party responsible for causing damage to underground utility equipment can be held financially responsible for repairing or replacing them.
In every state and region, the law requires contacting a locator before digging work starts on any project.
What Happens If I Don’t Call Before Digging?
Neglecting to contact a locator before digging starts on your project could result in hefty fines. $10,000 fines are not unheard of. Worse yet, you risk your safety by not making the call.
What to Expect When You Call?
Here’s what to expect, in order of events.
You’ll answer several questions about your project and where it’s taking place.
You’ll receive an estimate online and estimated completion time.
When accepted, you will sign a waiver and schedule your locate service.
Over the stated time, Util-Locators will survey the location.
Util-Locators will mark the location of their underground equipment using a combination of flags, spray paint, or other marking devices.
After confirmation of completion, you will receive an invoice and can start digging!
