Utility Detection Services

Knowing the precise location of hidden utilities, such as underground pipes, cables, and other infrastructure, is essential for any construction, renovation, or landscaping project. At Savvy Plumbing, we provide professional utility detection services to help you locate buried utilities accurately and avoid costly damage or delays. Whether you’re planning a major construction project or performing maintenance, our advanced detection methods ensure a safe and efficient process.

Why Utility Detection is Important

Hidden utilities, such as water pipes, gas lines, electrical cables, and sewer systems, pose significant risks during excavation or construction. Striking a buried utility can lead to:

• Property Damage: Damaging underground infrastructure can be expensive to repair.
• Safety Hazards: Hitting a gas line or electrical cable can pose serious safety risks.
• Project Delays: Unplanned utility repairs can disrupt timelines and increase costs.
• Legal Consequences: Damage to public utilities may result in fines or liability claims.

Accurate utility detection helps you avoid these risks and ensures a smooth and safe operation.
