Underground Utility Contractor in Sanford, FL

Sanford is a city in Seminole County with an estimated 66,919 residents (2024 Census estimate) on about 24 square miles of land.

Older systems and newer ones side by side

In many cities, lines installed at different times sit next to each other: a newer water main beside an abandoned older one, a replaced sewer section joined to the original pipe, conduit added beside cables that were buried directly. Records do not always keep up, and an excavation can uncover lines nobody expected.

That is a strong reason to start underground work by confirming what is there:

One-call marks

Sunshine 811 passes the locate request to the owners of buried facilities, who mark their lines.

Records

The property owner's or the utility's drawings show what was planned, if not always what was built.

Exposure

Hydro excavation uncovers the lines at critical points, such as where a new trench or bore will cross, so their position, depth and material are known.

With that information, the job, whether repairing a water service, replacing a sewer lateral, rebuilding a storm line or laying new conduit, can be planned with fewer surprises.

We serve homeowners, businesses, developers and public owners.

Sunshine 811 notice

Chapter 556 of the Florida Statutes requires a locate request through Sunshine 811 before excavation. The law (section 556.105) sets the notice at no less than two full business days, weekends and holidays excluded, and keeps a ticket valid for 30 calendar days.
