Remember the 3 P’s when it comes to your toilet: p*e, poo, and paper only! Flushing anything else can clog pipes, damage plumbing, and lead to costly repairs. Stick to the basics to keep your system flowing smoothly!

Blocked pipe or drainage issues? Our specialist camera equipment helps us to locate the cause of any obvious waste or blockages in pipes. Sometimes we are even shocked at what we find outside of tree roots, household waste or damaged pipes and drainage. From possums, snakes, cats and yabbies, we've had our fair share of surprises!

Another interesting locate job this week at the Zoo. This fella was very interested in the locator sounds and what we were getting up to so close to his enclosure!

Did you know that Before You Dig (BYDA) plans are more of a guide than entirely accurate?

While it is free to lodge a BYDA enquiry (and we can do this on your behalf for you!), it is always recommended to couple any plans with a locating service by a certified locator like Deetect Locating Services.

This is especially important before you undertake any work that may cause damage or underground infrastructure that may not be mapped on BYDA plans.

For more information or to book in a locate service, get in touch with our friendly team.
