25 Years Later, We Remember.

Today, we pause to remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the courage of the first responders, service members, and everyday Americans who stepped forward in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

Twenty-five years later, we remember not only the lives that were lost, but also the strength, unity, and compassion our country showed in the days that followed.

May we continue to honor their memory by never forgetting.

Built on a Simple Premise.

Every company has a reason it started. Ours was frustration — and a commitment to do better.

Center Line Locating was founded in 2015 with a simple premise: the construction industry deserves better underground utility data.

Too many projects were being delayed, budgets overrun, and safety compromised by incomplete or inaccurate utility information.

We set out to build a company that prioritizes accuracy over speed, verification over assumption, and documentation over promises. Every project we take on reflects our commitment to providing defensible data that our clients can trust.

Today we serve developers, engineers, contractors, municipalities, and property owners across North Carolina, South Carolina, and the broader Southeast region.

The Real Cost of a Utility Strike

Without having both public and private utilities identified, there is an increased risk of damage to underground infrastructure that can delay your project, blow your budget, or cause serious safety incidents.

That's not our language. That's the reality we work to prevent every day.

When an underground utility gets hit during excavation, the consequences stack up fast:
— Emergency repair costs billed to the contractor
— Project shutdown while repairs are made
— Safety incidents that put workers at risk
— Schedule penalties on tight-deadline projects
— Liability exposure that follows the project team

811 covers public utilities in the Right of Way. It doesn't cover private utilities running to your site — and those are exactly the lines most at risk during excavation.

Center Line Locating marks utilities inside and outside of the job site — including private water lines, gas services, telecom, and abandoned infrastructure that 811 doesn't cover.

We respond fast, mark accurately, and document everything so you can dig with confidence.

Don't guess. Locate. Protect.

811 Marks Public Utilities. That's Not Enough.

Calling 811 before you dig is required. But it only covers part of what's in the ground.

Public 811 utility locators mark public utilities within the public utility Right of Way.

Center Line Locating marks utilities inside and outside of the job site — including private water lines, gas services, telecom, and abandoned infrastructure that 811 doesn't cover and your equipment operator doesn't see coming.

Without having both public and private utilities identified, there is an increased risk of damage to underground infrastructure that can delay your project, blow your budget, or cause serious safety incidents.

We serve developers, engineers, contractors, municipalities, and property owners across North Carolina, South Carolina, and the broader Southeast region.
