underground utility survey in Northeast Georgia
An Underground Utility Survey identifies and documents the location of visible and known subsurface utilities to support safe design, construction, and excavation. SPG provides professional Underground Utility Surveys across Northeast Georgia, helping reduce risk, prevent conflicts, and improve coordination between project teams. Our surveys give engineers, contractors, and owners a clearer understanding of existing utility infrastructure before work begins.
What is an underground utility survey?
An Underground Utility Survey maps visible utility features and known underground infrastructure based on field observations, records, and available data. These surveys help identify potential conflicts between proposed improvements and existing utilities.
While not a substitute for utility locating or subsurface utility engineering (SUE) services, Underground Utility Surveys play a critical role in early planning and design.
When Do You Need an underground utility Survey?
You may need an Underground Utility Survey if you are:
Designing site improvements or redevelopment projects
Planning grading, drainage, or utility installations
Coordinating civil engineering or infrastructure design
Preparing construction documents
Evaluating utility conflicts early in a project
Identifying utilities early helps reduce costly redesigns and construction delays.
What’s Included in an underground utility Survey?
Each Underground Utility Survey is scoped to the project’s needs and available information. Typical elements include:
Utility Features
Manholes, valves, meters, and cleanouts
Storm structures, inlets, and headwalls
Fire hydrants and utility markers
Overhead utilities and poles (as context)
Utility Information
Visible utility locations
Known utility alignments based on records or provided data
Coordination with existing conditions or topographic surveys
