Call Before You Dig

Building a deck? Planting a tree? Installing a mailbox? 811 is the number you should call before you begin any digging project. Every digging job requires a call, even small projects like planting trees or shrubs. If you hit an underground utility line while digging, you can harm yourself or those around you, disrupt services to an entire neighborhood and potentially be responsible for repair cost. Remember 48 hours notice is required before you start to dig.
