Here is how to do it:
1) Phone/Click
2) Locate
3) Excavate
The first step is to submit a request for an Alberta One Call ticket. Alberta One Call will dispatch a technician to locate and mark primary underground utility lines that may intersect your work area.
However, they do NOT mark "secondary" or privately owned lines—such as gas, power, water, or data lines that run from the meter to your home, garage, or outbuildings.
Once we receive your request, we will contact you to schedule a convenient time and location to meet and accurately locate and mark any underground “secondary” utility lines that may be in your project area.
We locate:
-
✅ Power lines
-
✅ Gas lines
-
✅ Phone and cable lines
-
✅ Water lines
-
✅ Sewer lines (with tracer wire)
Once Alberta One Call has marked their utility lines and a Mark’em Line Locating technician has identified and flagged any additional secondary lines, you're ready to move forward.
👉 All that’s left to do is dig—with care.
This process isn’t just recommended—it’s the standard for any ground disturbance project.

Why Locating Underground Utilities Matters
Today’s underground infrastructure is a complex and highly integrated system. Beneath your feet are vital utility lines that deliver:
-
Heat & electricity
-
TV and internet
-
Water & septic services
-
And other essential systems for homes and businesses
If you’re planning any kind of excavation, whether it’s digging a fence post, planting a tree, or breaking ground on a major project, it’s critical that these underground utilities are clearly marked before you dig.
Why?
Failing to identify these lines can lead to:
-
🚧 Property damage
-
💸 Expensive repair bills
-
⚠️ Serious injury—or even death
DONT RISK IT. LOCATE IT.
