Utilising our exclusive GPR system, the SUMO franchise network can detect all types of underground services regardless of the material including metallic pipes, electrical mains, and uniquely, PE ducts, fibre optic cables, plastic gas mains, water services, clay drainage systems and concrete sewers.
