Dig Safely

Why take a chance? Dig Safely – call 811 before you dig!

Homeowners often make risky assumptions whether or not they should get their utility lines marked, but every digging job requires a call – even small projects like planting trees and shrubs. The depth of utility lines varies and there may be multiple utility lines in a common area.

Digging without calling can disrupt service to an entire neighborhood, harm you and those around you and potentially result in fines and repair costs. Dig safely – call 811 before you dig on every digging job gets your underground utility lines marked for free and helps prevent undesired consequences.
