Professional Underground Utility Locating in Victoria
Underground Utility, Pipe & Cable Location Services
Prevent costly mistakes, protect your team, and ensure a smooth project starts with accurate underground service locating.
At National Concrete Scanning & Coring, we provide professional pipe and cable locating services across Melbourne and regional Victoria. Using advanced, non-invasive technology, we accurately detect and map underground utilities—helping you avoid service strikes, costly delays, and workplace accidents.
What Is Underground Utility Locating?
Underground service locating involves identifying and mapping buried infrastructure such as
- Water lines
- Gas lines
- Sewer pipes
- Stormwater drains
- Electrical lines
- Telecommunication cables
- Concrete rebar & post-tension cables
We use Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Electromagnetic Detection—non-destructive methods that allow us to pinpoint the exact depth, location, and type of utility—with no damage to the surrounding area.
Whether you’re preparing for excavation, renovation, trenching, or directional drilling, our utility locating services help you plan with precision and dig with confidence.
Why Accurate Utility Locating Matters
Without proper locating, excavation work can result in damage to critical infrastructure, leading to
- Safety hazards
- Project delays
- Legal liabilities
- Costly repairs
We ensure your team avoids underground surprises—keeping your project safe, compliant, and on budget.
