HOW?
Chaytor Locate uses a blend of two locating methods.
Electromagnetic Locating (EML) is a technique employed for pinpointing sub surface pipes, cables and other conductive infrastructure. This method entails the activation of underground utilities using low-frequency electromagnetic pulses.
EML is recognised as the most precise approach to identifying utilities because it directly interacts with the conductive materials, delivering an exact and reliable indication of the whereabouts.
Ground penetrating radar (GPR) can detect in a variety of ground including rock, soil, ice, fresh water, concrete, wood, anything non-metallic. GPR detection targets plastics, pipes, concrete, wood and some fibre optic cables.
A radar unit emits electromagnetic pulsed waves into the ground, records the echoes, and builds and image from those echoes.
If the above seems a bit overwhelming be rest assured our highly skilled locators have the full comprehensive training and field experience under their belt and are ready when you are! Don’t shy away from giving the office a call either with any further questions you may have. Locating is our expertise & education around how important this service is, is always our aim!
