Private utility locating is essential for any construction, excavation, or renovation project. While 811 One Call services identify public utility lines, they do not provide depth information or detect private utilities. Our private utility locating services utilize advanced technology, including Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), Electromagnetic locators, CCTV video cameras, acoustic leak detectors, and more, to accurately scan for subsurface utilities. We provide depth information and GPS mapping to help prevent costly and dangerous utility strikes, ensuring the safety of all site employees and contractors. GPRS also offers complimentary .KMZ files for all our exterior utility locating projects.

Most pipe defects occur underground in buried pipes that can only be inspected through excavation or by using CCTV cameras in a Video Pipe Inspection (VPI). GPRS utilizes robotic crawler CCTV cameras, lateral launch cameras, and push cameras to document and assess water systems, drains, and perform sewer inspections without the need for costly excavation. Our NASSCO-certified WinCan VPI reports provide clients with the precise location, photos, videos, and maps of each defect, all cross-referenced and tagged with a defect severity level. This allows clients to visualize every inch of their water and sewer pipes and develop comprehensive repair and maintenance plans, enabling them to address pipe damage in the most cost-effective way possible.

Projects involving post-tension or slab-on-grade concrete carry the risk of costly damage or injury when coring or cutting into the slab. Rebar, conduit, and post-tension cables present significant strike hazards, each with its distinct Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) imaging signature. GPRS offers concrete scanning services using GPR to precisely identify and map these hazards, ensuring there is no uncertainty about where it is safe to cut. Unlike concrete X-ray services, GPR concrete imaging does not require closing off sections of your site to avoid radiation. In most cases, your work can continue uninterrupted while we scan and locate slab reinforcement and conduits with 99.8%+ accuracy, allowing for safe cutting and drilling.
