Yes, underground locating services can detect non-metallic utilities, such as plastic water pipes and PVC conduits. Advanced equipment, like Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), is particularly effective for identifying non-metallic materials. However, non-metallic utilities may not always produce as strong a signal as metallic ones, so accurate results often depend on the expertise of the operator.

Electromagnetic utility locators work by transmitting a signal into the ground, which is picked up by metallic utilities like pipes and cables. These signals allow the operator to identify the location, depth, and direction of the utility. Electromagnetic locators are highly effective for detecting conductive materials but may not work as well for non-metallic utilities.

Yes, even small excavation projects, such as installing a fence or planting trees, can benefit from underground locating services. Utilities can be buried just inches below the surface, making them easy to hit during digging. Locating utilities ensures your project is safe, compliant, and free from costly surprises, regardless of its size.
