A locate is the name given to the detection, marking and reporting of buried utility services such as natural gas pipelines, electrical services, telephone, cable TV and internet, or water and sewer connections. It is the responsibility of the homeowner to contact Ontario One Call to request this free service prior to any drilling. You can do this online or over the phone (toll-free @ 1-800-400-2255) – 24 hours a day! Depending on where you are located and what service you require, you may have to refer to your utility bill for the number of the locator in your area.Please remember that this MUST be done before you dig!
