Method01 / 03
Two technologies, every site.
Electromagnetic induction finds metallic conductors; ground penetrating radar finds the rest. We use both on every locate, because either one alone misses targets the other catches.

Know what'sbeneathbefore you cut.
Private utility locating and GPR scanning — electromagnetic and radar on every job, so the lines 811 doesn't mark get found before the bucket goes in.

What we do
Two services.
One crew.
Most subsurface jobs need more than one technology. We bring electromagnetic locating and ground penetrating radar to every site, so one visit covers both the traceable lines and the ones that aren't.
Subsurface01
Private Utility Locating
Lone Star 811 stops at the meter. We mark the rest — private power, water, gas, comms, sewer laterals, irrigation, and fiber on your property.

GPR02
GPR Scanning
Ground penetrating radar for the targets electromagnetic locating misses — PVC and clay pipe, abandoned lines, tanks, voids, and buried structures on your site.

By the numbers
Precision that's
measured, not claimed.
65%
of utilities on a typical site are private and unmarked by 811

GPR grid pattern on every scan — catches targets a single pass misses

electromagnetic and GPR on every locate — no single-method shortcuts
How we work
The crew behind
the paint marks.
We're a Tyler-based outfit run by people who've been hit with surprise-utility tickets and struck-line repair bills. Three principles drive how we run a job — they're what we'd want from a contractor on our own property.
Depth02 / 03
Every mark gets a depth.
A paint line tells you where. We also tell you how deep — estimated at every mark, photographed with a reference point, so your crew knows what to expect before the bucket goes in.
Response03 / 03
We answer the email.
Every quote request gets a reply from a person who'll be on the job, not a form letter. Emergencies and struck-line situations get prioritized — we keep equipment loaded and ready.
