Electronic Sonar Drain Tracing

Advanced technology to accurately locate and trace drainage systems without excavation or disruption to your property.

Precision Drain Location Services

Our electronic sonar drain tracing technology allows us to accurately locate and map drainage systems without the need for disruptive excavation. Using advanced sonar and electronic detection equipment, we can trace drain runs, identify blockages, and locate manholes and inspection chambers.

This non-invasive approach saves time, money, and prevents unnecessary damage to your property while providing precise information about your drainage system's layout and condition.

Non-Invasive Technology

Locate drains without excavation or property damage

Accurate Results

Precise location data with depth and direction information

Cost-Effective

Reduce excavation costs and property restoration expenses

How Electronic Tracing Works

1

Signal Transmission

Electronic signals are transmitted through the drain system

2

Surface Detection

Sensitive receivers detect signals from above ground

3

Accurate Mapping

Precise drain routes and depths are mapped and recorded

Applications for Drain Tracing

Electronic drain tracing is essential for various drainage projects and investigations

Property Surveys

Map existing drainage systems for property purchases, extensions, or renovations

Problem Identification

Locate blockages, damaged sections, and connection points without excavation

Construction Planning

Avoid existing drains during construction and plan new connections safely

Asset Mapping

Create detailed records of drainage assets for maintenance and compliance

Repair Planning

Plan repair work efficiently with accurate location and depth information

Insurance Claims

Provide accurate documentation for insurance claims and legal requirements
