Onsite Utility Mapping

Onsite utility mapping

Why our onsite mapping service is different from the rest

LADS has developed an onsite service mapping system that gives the customer an easy-to-understand yet comprehensive report on what utilities lie underneath the surface.

Our utility mapping system adheres to all AS 5488 standards, making it a cost-effective way to manage risk when it comes to excavating and working around existing underground infrastructure.

This onsite map is provided in either a hard copy or electronically by the technician on site after the job is complete.

What our utility locating equipment can find

If you are unsure of what lies beneath, then do not fret — our underground service locating system will find out for you.

As part of our LADS onsite mapping system, we are able to locate and identify a whole host of utilities, including:

  • Water pipes
  • Gas pipes
  • Telecommunications
  • Stormwater drains
  • Electrical cables
  • Sewer lines
  • Voids and more

Why having an onsite map completed is useful

If you want a safe site and you plan to dig or demolish, then it is worth exploring what is under the ground.

The last thing you want is to cause damage to any buried utilities, or worse, dig someplace dangerous resulting in an injury. Having an onsite map of everything under the ground helps you avoid the risk of delays to your project, expensive repairs or unnecessary damage.

A complete onsite mapping report

We will leave you with a detailed onsite map, giving you a complete picture of what is in the ground, where it is and any possible obstructions you might run into when you dig.

Before we carry out your report, we will work closely with you to determine what you want to achieve from the project, where you want to dig and other project requirements, so we completely understand what it is you need.
