Locating Underground Utilities

Master Trade Inc. locates private utilities using state-of-the-art equipment for all pre-excavation and site planning needs. The state one-call (811) only marks public utilities, those which are before the service meter.

Examples of private utilities that are not located by the State One-Call:

Residential

  • Gas line to a heated swimming pool

  • Electrical and gas lines to back-up generator

  • Gas line to outdoor fire pit

  • Electrical and gas lines

  • Sanitary or storm sewers

Commercial

  • Parking lot lighting

  • Fire and domestic water mains

  • Any building-to-building utility

Any utility beyond the service meter is usually considered private, which will require a second call to us.
