Technical and industrial facilities
Facilities with sensitive equipment, such as laboratories, manufacturing plants and data rooms, tend to be strict about how underground work near them is carried out. Power and communications conduit may need specific separation from other lines; water and sewer work may have to avoid interrupting cooling or process systems; excavation may be restricted near foundations and equipment pads.
Work at such sites usually starts with the facility's own documents: utility drawings, shutdown procedures and site rules. Existing lines are confirmed by exposing them with hydro excavation before any trench or bore comes close. Directional drilling is often considered where a new line must pass beneath roads or paved yards without interrupting traffic. Hydro vacuum services can clean out pits, trench drains and sumps as part of maintenance or before repairs.
The same methods apply on a smaller scale to homes and small businesses: a water service, a sewer lateral, a storm connection or conduit for a new electrical feed.
We work for facility owners, businesses, developers, public owners and homeowners.
Sunshine 811 notice
Under Chapter 556, Florida Statutes, a locate request goes to Sunshine 811 before excavation. Section 556.105 of the Florida Statutes requires at least two full business days of notice, not counting weekends or holidays, and a ticket stays valid for 30 calendar days. Facility-owned lines may not be marked by that process.

For a facility, attach the site rules and the utility drawings for the area of work. For a home, an address, a description and a few photos are a good start.
