Struck a service while digging? Here's exactly what to do

Projects

Proof in the ground

Real jobs, real outcomes — the kind of work we handle every week for civil, mining, utility and government clients across Queensland.

Example case studies — replace with real projects, photos and (where possible) client names and figures. These are the single most powerful trust-builders on the site.

Civil & construction

Road corridor located & potholed — zero strikes

Challenge
A contractor had to trench along a busy road corridor crossed by power, comms and water, with no reliable record of depths.
What we did
We located and depth-marked every service along the corridor, then hydro-excavated potholes at the critical crossings to confirm exact positions.
Outcome
The crew trenched the full corridor without a single strike, and stayed on program.
Utilities

Town water network mapped to survey grade

Challenge
An asset owner extending a water network needed accurate as-built records of new and existing mains.
What we did
We located the network and captured it with survey-grade accuracy, delivering a clean underground utility map.
Outcome
The client received a durable record for design and future works, reducing risk on the next dig.
Mining & resources

Live-site services daylighted safely

Challenge
Work was needed around operating infrastructure on a resource site where a strike would mean shutdown.
What we did
Non-destructive hydro excavation exposed each buried service so it could be visually confirmed before any mechanical digging.
Outcome
Services were daylighted with zero damage and the site stayed compliant and incident-free.
Local government

Council drainage located, cleared & verified

Challenge
A council had a recurring stormwater blockage and incomplete records of the line.
What we did
We located the line, cleared it with high-pressure jet rodding, and ran a CCTV inspection to confirm the cause and condition.
Outcome
The blockage was cleared and the council got footage and a clear record of the asset.
