A few questions, answered

Do you take on small jobs?

Yes. No job too small, no project too large. A one-hour locate for a local plumber gets the same certified technician and the same clear markings as a tier-one infrastructure package. Small jobs are usually scheduled within the week.

What does AS 5488 QL-A mean?

AS 5488 is the Australian Standard for the classification of subsurface utility information. QL-A (Quality Level A) is the highest, delivered by physically exposing the utility (vacuum excavation) to verify horizontal position, depth, and asset attributes. QL-B is precise electromagnetic / GPR locate without exposure. Every LCG report tells you exactly which quality level applies to each asset.

How quickly can you mobilise?

Fixed-fee quote within 48 hours of your brief. Certified crew on site within 3-7 business days for standard scopes; same-week or next-day mobilisation available for urgent works. Report package delivered within 5 business days of the final on-site day.

Do you deliver CAD-ready mapping?

Yes. DWG, DXF, PDF and geo-referenced files as standard. Our reports are what tier-one Sydney contractors, engineers and architects design and construct from without rework.
