If you’re planning any remodeling and construction project that would involve digging of any kind one thing you or your contractor will need to do before commencing on your project would be to phone the Call Before You Dig office in your state as power, water, gas and other types of lines are embedded across most all city areas and even rural areas have heavy concentrations of underground lines.  Most states require calling first before digging to avoid hitting any underground lines.  Some of the lines are only inches below ground surface and could easily be hit.

Once you call the Call before You Dig office in your state they will notify involved companies and utilities who will come out to your remodeling project site and mark where the lines are for you.  This process will take about two to three business days so you should include that in your remodeling project timeline.  This is a free service usually.
