Why 811 is ESSENTIAL. Every dig. Every time.

In the excavation industry, safety and precision are paramount. Call or click 811 for any digging or ground disturbing activities including landscaping projects, home improvement projects, construction and demolition, utility and infrastructure work, roadwork and paving, agricultural activities, public and municipal projects, and recreational projects. 811 is crucial to ensure that your dig won’t disrupt underground utility lines. 

Protect Lives and Property

Using 811 before you dig helps prevent potentially catastrophic accidents. Striking an underground utility line can lead to serious injuries, fatalities, service disruptions for entire communities and costly property damage. By calling 811, you safeguard your team, your project, and the community.

Save Time and Money

Unexpected interruptions can derail your project timeline and inflate costs. When you use 811, utility companies will mark the location of their lines, allowing you to plan and execute your dig more efficiently. This proactive step helps you avoid delays and unexpected expenses.

Ensure Compliance and Avoid Fines

Failing to call 811 before digging can result in hefty fines and legal consequences. Make 811 a standard part of your process to stay compliant with state and federal regulations.

Simplify the Process

The 811 process is straightforward and convenient. A simple phone call or a few clicks on a website connect you to a network of utility operators who will identify and mark the locations of their underground lines. This streamlined service is designed to support your workflow, making it easier to focus on what you do best—excavation.

Commitment to Quality and Safety

When you make it a point to call 811 for every dig, every time, this ensures that your projects are completed safely, on time, and within budget.
