Underground Utility Locating Services

Locate & Map is the only company in the industry with qualified Locator Surveyors. That is the short version of why our plans hold up when a project gets audited.

We find and document underground services across Sydney: water, sewer, stormwater, gas, electrical, high voltage, fibre and telecommunications. Every job is classified against AS 5488, and every result comes back in a format your design team can work from.

How We Locate

We run two detection methods together, because neither one is enough on its own.

Electromagnetic induction traces conductive services. It is precise on metal pipe, cable and anything carrying a signal, and it can trace a line over distance rather than just finding a point.

Ground penetrating radar finds what has no metal in it. PVC water main, poly gas, clay sewer, fibre conduit, plus voids, tanks and old concrete encasements. Our ground penetrating radar page covers the method in detail.

Where a project needs certainty rather than probability, the service has to be exposed and measured directly. That is Quality Level A under AS 5488, and it is done with non-destructive digging rather than a machine bucket.

Utility Location Services

Our personnel have the expertise and demonstrated competency to deliver detection and mapping services across domestic, commercial, civil and industrial applications.

Professional Drafting

3D Modelling

3D utility modelling helps accurately map existing services, enabling informed, cost-effective decisions for any project involving ground penetration or excavation.

Ground Penetration Radar
