GENERAL GEAR
Aside from our locating gear and GPS equipment, we also use the most efficient gear available when it comes to locating and marking an underground utility. This includes having the proper tools needed to create a reliable locate signal, as well as the proper materials necessary to correctly mark underground infrastructure.
For paint markings, we use only water-based paints that are reliable, but not permanent as we strive to protect the environment while performing locate services. For flags, we primarily use 21" flags with a steel base, however plastic bases can be provided at the request of our clients.
Our damage prevention technicians are also equipped with vehicle chargers for all of their locating equipment and GPS gear, which in turn helps reduce travel time while increasing locate productivity.
