Southern Underground Locating was formed due to the increase of utility damages happening in the area. The founder, being in contract locating with a major locating company himself saw first hand the sheer number of underground utilities being unmarked underground.

Alot of people fail to realize that 811 contract locators only mark the utilities owned by the utility company and not your private gas lines, telephone, power, CATV, water, sewer, and septic lines. When digging occurs on your property, just think of the headache it will cause when a contractor cuts into a line. That could mean a new water line or power line, but if Southern Underground Locating was called this could have been prevented.
