Services
Utility Locating
Our utility locating service identifies underground infrastructure using electromagnetic and ground-penetrating radar technologies. We precisely map power lines, gas pipelines, and communication cables to prevent excavation damage. This service ensures compliance with safety regulations while minimizing project delays for construction and environmental clients across the Southeast.
Concrete Scanning
Concrete scanning assesses building components using high-frequency GPR technology. We detect rebar, post-tension cables, and voids in walls, floors, and columns without destructive testing. This service provides real-time 3D modeling for accurate thickness measurements and reinforcement mapping during renovations or core drilling operations.
Vacuum Excavation
Vacuum excavation safely exposes underground utilities using pressurized air or water combined with vacuum extraction. This non-destructive method creates precise boreholes for utility verification while maintaining worksite safety. The service prevents accidental utility strikes during pre-construction surveys and maintenance operations across various soil conditions.
Drone Photography
Our FAA-certified drone operators capture high-resolution aerial imagery and video for project documentation. This service provides cost-effective site mapping and progress tracking while maintaining strict safety protocols. The visual data enhances client communication and utility location visualization through georeferenced aerial surveys.
Utility Mapping
Utility mapping creates detailed 2D representations of underground infrastructure using CAD and GIS technologies. We integrate field data with aerial photography to produce accurate as-built records for engineering and construction projects. This service supports conflict resolution and utility management planning for commercial and municipal clients.
