What is Utility Potholing?

Utility potholing is an investigative process used to expose underground utilities using non-destructive hydro or vacuum excavation techniques. This method provides a direct visual and physical confirmation of utilities' locations and conditions, reducing the risk of accidental utility strikes that can cause serious project setbacks, utility service disruptions, and safety hazards.

• Pre-construction planning and design
• Installation of new utility lines or infrastructure upgrades
• Roadworks and urban development projects
• Environmental assessments and remediation sites
