Linesearch.org gives third party enquirers information about above and below ground apparatus which could affect planned engineering or building work.
Finding out what lies underground can be a laborious task. However, the consequences of not checking before you dig can be both dangerous and costly. Linesearch.org can help firms avoid unnecessary costs and potential problems by checking for possible pipes or cables in the area where they want to work.
Increasingly rigorous health and safety standards for excavation and development work and a sharper focus on environmentally friendly policies led to the creation of Linesearch.org.
Linesearch.org can save Members both time and money and the site now receives over 4,200 enquiries a day. The team promote Linesearch.org to those who may be undertaking work within the vicinity of the Members apparatus and this includes attending industry events, on-site training and presentations and distribution of promotional material.
Sister website www.linewatch.co.uk raises awareness of best practice for the pipelines that lie underground and how developers should take them into account when planning work.
