Did you recently purchase a property that was developed at one point that you want to do some additional development work on? Maybe you bought a piece of property that used to have a home on it, but that home has since been razed. You suspect there are buried utilities like water, gas, and electrical lines, and maybe even a buried septic tank, but you have no idea where. You don’t want to just start digging around, since this would be time-consuming and you could damage something worth saving.
This is the situation that Karen, a past client of ours, found herself in. In a review that she left on Google for our company after using our GPR scanning services, she said, “After months of wondering where the sewer and water lines were located on this vacated lot we owned, we called Enhanced Scanning. A short phone conversation later we had an appointment set up. The estimate seemed reasonable. He showed up on time, did the locating with his equipment, marked the lines with tags and paint and gave us an online map to document what he found. Nice guy and we were very satisfied.”
Many people don’t know GPR scanning services even exist. We’re not sure if Karen was one of them, but she says she spent “months of wondering” where her utility lines were located. You don’t have to wonder! You can know for sure when you call us out for GPR scanning services on your property.
Even if your property came with a map outlining where all the utility lines are located, these maps are not always accurate. There may have been something added after the map was produced, or the producers of the map may have only been looking for certain things. For example, if the map was generated by the free scanning service provided by the public utility companies, it probably won’t show where any private utility lines are located, such as lines going to privately owned propane tanks or septic tanks. For a complete picture of what is buried on your property, a current and thorough scan should be done by a company like Enhanced Scanning.
If you’re worried about what a complete GPR scan of your property will cost, you can contact our office for a rough estimate. It may be lower than you had assumed—especially if you have a typical residential lot or a small-to-medium-sized commercial property without a lot of obstacles. We do our best to keep our rates affordable, so our services are accessible to anyone who needs them.
Give us a call, email us, or fill out our web form to get the process started. If you need prompt service, let us know, and we will get out to your property as soon as possible.
