Visit our site http://util-locate.com/services/ for more information on Utility Locating Services. Utility locating services involves the detection, location and positioning of buried pipes and cables. It is essential that a utility survey is undertaken, as building companies can then determine the feasibility of working on the site. Anyone wishing to develop or work on a particular site needs to obtain an accurate survey that outlines where everything is. Once the particular utilities have been identified and mapped, builders and developers should then discover who owns the site to avoid any legal wrangles.
