About This Service
Underground utility faults can be difficult and expensive to locate without the right technology. ClearView's fault detection services use a combination of advanced diagnostic methods — including time-domain reflectometry (TDR) and tracer gas techniques — to pinpoint the exact location of faults, breaks, and leaks in buried cables, pipes, and conduits. Precise fault location means targeted excavation, faster repairs, and less disruption to your operations.
