Palmer Lake
Old lines, no drawings, minutes from our base
Palmer Lake is minutes from our base in Monument. The town, the Glen, Red Rock Ranch and the County Line Road and Highway 105 corridor carry no travel charge, and visits are booked 2 or more business days out.
Older Palmer Lake homes carry old lines: services buried decades ago with no drawings, plastic or clay laterals that carry no signal, and runs out to sheds and wells that nobody remembers. 811 marks the utility companies' lines up to your meter and stops. The rest is private, and no utility marks it. We trace what we can with an electromagnetic locator, sweep with ground-penetrating radar for what carries no signal where the job calls for it, 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 or the fence auger goes in.
Work we have done in Palmer Lake: sign footing locations checked for a sign company, and an electric line locate.
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.

811 marked my lines in Palmer Lake. 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 (a sewer trace is priced separately).
How fast can you get to a Palmer Lake address?
Usually within a few days. Need it today? A same-day visit adds a small charge when we can fit one in. Send the address and what you are digging through the request form, or call or text (719) 800-4937. You get a firm quote, and once it is approved the date is held.
