5.0 average from 3 customer reviews
  • Retail buildout downtown - we needed private utilities located inside a tight easement. They marked every line, gave us a PDF for the permit set, and saved us a week.

  • Old clay lateral in Hyde Park, roots at every joint. They jetted it, ran the camera, and gave us a clean PACP-coded report the City accepted for the tap permit. No back-and-forth.

  • We were trenching near a fiber run off South Lamar and nobody wanted to touch it. CSC vac-truck potholed the whole corridor in a morning. Zero damage, zero drama.

What kind of Austin projects do you handle?

Do you work in Austin or just downtown Austin?

We serve commercial sites in Austin, including the Austin area, within our 100-mile service radius from Cedar Park. Pricing depends on the service scope, access, equipment and mobilization requirements. Request a project-specific quote.

Can I see a real line locating job before hiring you in Austin?

Yes. "Offset clay joint under a live East Austin loading dock" in Austin is published at /case-studies/austin-east-clay-lateral with footage inspected 184 ft, defects coded 7, report delivered same day, the PACP codes logged on site, and before and after camera stills so you can see the deliverable before you commit.

What does the line locating deliverable for a Austin site include?

HD video, footage marks at every defect, NASSCO PACP coding, sonde-marked dig windows where excavation is needed, and a written report sized for an owner, GC, or Travis County reviewer. Same-day video and next-business-day report is the standard turnaround. NASSCO/PACP certified operators, 25+ years in Central Texas pipe work, and full commercial and municipal insurance with COIs issued the same day.

Are you insured and certified for commercial line locating in Austin?

Yes. We carry full commercial and municipal liability coverage and issue COIs to your GC or property manager the same day, and every operator running the camera is NASSCO/PACP certified with 25+ years of Central Texas pipe experience behind them.

How much does line locating cost in Austin?

Commercial line locating in Austin is quoted by scope: line size, footage, access, and whether the pipe needs cleaning before the camera runs. Austin sits about 20 miles from our Cedar Park yard, so mobilization stays predictable for Travis County sites. Send footage and access details to office@cspipeinspection.com or call (737) 618-0219 for a same-day number.

How soon can a crew reach a Austin site for line locating?

Most Austin jobs are scheduled within one to three business days, with emergency mobilization for active backups. Because we work Pflugerville, Lakeway, Bee Cave and the wider Austin metro weekly, one trip can cover several properties, and 25+ years in Central Texas means our crews already know the local sewer and storm systems.

Do you handle traffic control and permits for line locating in Austin rights-of-way?

Yes. For work in Austin streets, alleys, and public easements we coordinate traffic control, carry certificates of insurance, and document the job so the city reviewer, general contractor, or owner's engineer can accept it. We follow the same process in Pflugerville, Lakeway, Bee Cave and across Travis County.

Will the line locating report be accepted by Austin and Travis County reviewers?

Yes. Every deliverable is NASSCO PACP coded with HD video, footage marks, defect stills, and a written summary, which is the format Austin area public works departments, engineers, and GCs expect. Austin and Travis County submittals use that same package, usually delivered the same or next business day.
