What regions do cover?
We are an Auckland based company; however we travel to Northland, North Waikato and Thames-Coromandel area.
What is the cost of locating services?
No site is the same unfortunately. Example to find the power, fibre, gas and water for a residential property can be a very quick job, however there are lot of variables that can cause it to take longer. If the fibre installer did not connect the tracer or your gas pipe does not have a tracer cable with it, it slows the process down. We then must explore other options. Please contact Locator man for the hourly rate or an estimate.
What services can you locate?
We can locate Power, Communication lines, Gas, Water, Stormwater and Sewer. We do however always recommend that you get CCTV for stormwater and sewer. We can locate a variety of other things, but there are always limitations to what we can or cannot do. Please call Locator Man to discuss your scope in more detail.
If I get a service locate and then damage a service, is the liability on Locator Man and I am free of responsibility?
Unfortunately no, it is important that you remember that all liability goes on the individual or company breaking ground, not on the landowner or Locator Man. Although we use excellent calibrated approved tools, all markings put down by Locator Man Ltd should be used as a guide to find underground services only, and no warranty as to accuracy is given or implied.
It is the responsibility of the individual or company that breaks ground to carefully expose and visually see the services before work commences.
In conjunction with location devices and plans, trial holes by careful hand excavation are essential before any excavation is commenced. Hand digging must continue until all of the services have been found. If there is any doubt as to where the service is located, stop work and consult with the service owner. Please see the safety guide here.
