Our Approach
How we mark
What sets us apart from other companies is our commitment to our client’s success. We strive to go the extra mile to ensure that our work does not disrupt their construction teams and protect their businesses from the risks of working near underground services.
How we mark
We primarily mark with a high-quality spot marking aerosol made by signet. This paint has consistent colour and spray patterns leaving us with quality looking markings. In some case where decorative paving or tiles are in place, we can prevent this semi-permanent marking being overused or use a chalk-based paint which is easily removed.
Our markings are unique in that we identify each service type to a coloured paint so that when our customers see our work, for one: (1) They know we have completed the locating, (2) What asset is below due to the colour coding of the service and the labeling, (3) What quality level class location was achieved, (4) and how to proceed from the utility location stage.
Here’s a look into the colour coding marking system Geoscope uses to complete our Utility Surveys.
