Questions and Answers

Why is a utility inspection important before I start a home wiring project in West Columbia?

Before any excavation or wiring work, knowing where underground electric lines, gas pipes, and water mains are located is critical for safety and compliance. Our electric and utility inspections use precise locating methods to create a clear map of what's beneath your property. This helps prevent accidental damage to utilities, which can be dangerous, cause service outages, and lead to expensive repairs for West Columbia homeowners.

My ceiling fan wiring failed after a power surge. Can you help diagnose underground issues?

While we don't repair indoor wiring, we can be a vital first step. A power surge can sometimes indicate broader electrical issues. We can perform a thorough utility locate around your home's foundation to ensure underground service lines are intact and properly placed. This helps rule out external factors and provides your electrician with a complete picture, ensuring any repairs are based on accurate information about your property's infrastructure.

What technology does Reed Tech use for locating utilities, and how accurate is it?

We utilize a combination of proven methods, including Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Electromagnetic Profiling. GPR provides a detailed subsurface image, while electromagnetic tools detect active conductive lines. By cross-referencing data from these systems, our trained technicians achieve a high degree of accuracy in identifying the type, depth, and path of utilities, giving you and your contractor reliable information to proceed confidently.
