Private locating

Private locating detects all buried infrastructure that are not public and not listed by the application centres. These include electricity or telecommunications networks installed by a private company or an individual, old, or unreported pipelines, unlisted conduits, underground tanks, etc.

What’s the best way to proceed?

By avoiding any risk!
When they consult our team of experts before conducting their work, our clients get detailed information on everything located underground. Ground markings enable them to excavate safely, avoiding wasted time or damage to equipment.

Hundreds of private locates across two provinces

In partnership with ET Construction, we are delighted to have assisted a major fast-food chain in the redesign of its new digital signage for their drive-thru throughout Québec and Eastern Ontario.

To ensure top-quality standards across the country, along with greater efficiency in project management, ET Construction tasked Promark-Telecon with conducting private locatings at hundreds of sites. Our great agility also enabled us to support the chain at their sites in more far-flung regions.

Our innovative equipment and unique expertise, backed by 25 years of experience, helped us fulfil this mandate successfully despite its many complex technical challenges, including both electrical and sanitary locating. We are pleased to have met all the challenges and proud to have delivered the project on time.
