Working at properties that never close

Hotels, vacation rentals and restaurants rarely have a quiet day to give up for underground work. A water service repair, a sewer line replacement or new storm drainage still has to happen, but it has to happen around guests, deliveries and parking.

Planning for an occupied property usually covers:

• When water or sewer service can be shut off, for how long, and who needs to be told.
• Which parts of the parking and drives must stay open, and whether a crossing should be drilled instead of trenched to keep them open.
• Where equipment and spoil can be staged out of guests' way.
• How the surface, landscaping and any pavers are restored afterwards.

The technical work is the same as on any site: locate through the one-call process, expose nearby lines with hydro excavation, install or repair, test where specified, backfill and restore. What changes is the schedule and the care taken around people.

We also work for homeowners, builders, developers and public owners.

Notice and permits

Sunshine 811 receives locate requests under Chapter 556, Florida Statutes, before any excavation. Notice must be given at least two full business days ahead, without counting weekends or holidays, and the ticket is valid for 30 calendar days (section 556.105). Work in public roads also needs the right-of-way owner's permit.
