GPR Utility Locating by Boring Bros: Know Before You Dig

Boring Bros provides professional ground-penetrating radar (GPR) utility locating for contractors, engineers, municipalities, and property owners across the Southeast. Before a bore, trench, or dig begins, we map what is already in the ground — gas, electric, fiber, water, sewer, and unknown obstructions — so your project moves forward without a costly strike, injury, or shutdown.

What Is Ground-Penetrating Radar?

GPR sends radar pulses into the ground and reads the signals that bounce back off buried objects and soil boundaries. It detects both metallic and non-metallic utilities — PVC water lines, fiber conduit, and concrete storm structures that traditional electromagnetic locators miss entirely. The result is a real map of the subsurface, not a guess based on decades-old as-builts.

Common uses include:

  • Locating existing utilities before directional boring, trenching, or excavation
  • Finding unmarked or abandoned lines that never made it onto a plan
  • Mapping rebar, post-tension cables, and voids in concrete slabs
  • Verifying depth and clearance for a planned bore path

Why Locate Before You Bore or Trench?

A single utility strike can stop a job for days, injure a crew, and put the cost of the repair on the contractor. Public locate services (811) mark public utilities in the right-of-way, but they do not map private lines — the gas run to a generator, the conduit between buildings, the irrigation main across a property. GPR fills that gap, and it is why every Boring Bros bore starts with a verified subsurface picture.

Expertise and Experience

Our technicians read GPR data every day on live job sites, in the same soil conditions we drill in. We know how Florida sand and limestone or Georgia clay and rock affect the signal, and we interpret results in context — not from a manual.

Advanced Equipment

We run modern multi-frequency GPR alongside electromagnetic locators, combining both methods so metallic and non-metallic utilities are captured. Findings are marked on the surface and can be documented for your records.

Commitment to Safety

Locating is the first line of safety on any dig. By identifying utilities and depths before excavation, we protect your crew, the public, and the infrastructure already in the ground, in line with damage-prevention best practices.

Locating That Feeds the Bore Plan

Because we are the crew that also does the boring and trenching, our locate does not sit on a shelf — it shapes the bore path, entry and exit pits, and depth so the install goes in clean the first time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does GPR find plastic and non-metallic pipe?

Yes. That is the main advantage of GPR over standard electromagnetic locators — it detects PVC, HDPE, clay, and concrete lines that carry no traceable signal.

Do you locate private utilities, not just the 811 public marks?

Yes. We specialize in the private lines 811 does not cover — on-site gas, electric, fiber, water, and irrigation runs.

Do I still need to call 811?

Always call 811 before digging — it is the law. GPR is the second step that verifies those marks and finds everything 811 does not.
