Castle Rock & Douglas County
Inside our home zone, no travel charge
Castle Rock and the rest of Douglas County sit inside our home zone, so most addresses in Castle Rock, Castle Pines, Larkspur, Franktown, Sedalia and Parker carry no travel charge, and we can usually be there on the date you pick.
811 marks the utility companies' lines up to your meter and stops there. The buried service from the pedestal at the street to the house, the power to the shop, the gas to the fire pit, the irrigation and the sewer lateral are private, and no utility marks them. We trace those with an electromagnetic locator, sweep with ground-penetrating radar for what carries no signal, and paint the results in APWA color code where the line runs. Anything we could not find goes in writing, so you know where to hand-dig before the trencher, the auger or the French-drain crew goes in.
Work we have done around Castle Rock, from the job log: a residential locate on Stony Mesa Place; locates in Franktown on Woodridge Road, Steeplechase Drive and Running Kit Place; a residence on Hidden Valley Road in Sedalia; an electric line traced on Stallion Drive in Parker; and a locate on Park Meadows Drive in Lone Tree.
We also scan concrete before cutting or coring, trace sewer laterals from the cleanout, manage Colorado 811 tickets for contractors, and measure utility footage off plan sets. Residential locates are a flat rate for the visit. Send the address and what you are digging and we send a firm number, within one business day.

Castle Rock questions
Questions we get from Castle Rock
Anything else, call or text (719) 800-4937.
811 marked my lines in Castle Rock. Why do I still need you?
Because they marked their lines, not yours. The 811 members mark the gas, electric, water and sewer they own, up to your meter or the end of their own line. The gas to the fire pit, the power to the shed, the irrigation, the sewer lateral from the house to the main and the line to the well are private, and none of them are on that ticket. Those are what we mark.
How fast can you get to a Castle Rock address?
Usually within a few days, and same-day or next-day when the schedule allows. Send the address and what you are digging through the request form, or call or text (719) 800-4937. You get a firm quote within one business day, often the same day, and once it is approved with the deposit the date is held.
Do you give the depth of the lines you mark?
No. We mark the horizontal position on the surface in APWA color, and we do not give depth: a number that is off by a foot is worse than none. Hand-dig or pothole to expose a line before you cross it with a machine.
