The 411 on 811

One simple call can save time, property damage, money, and lives. One resource noted that every 6 minutes someone causes damage by digging into utility lines. Over the last 20 years it has resulted in 1.7 billion in property damage, 1,906 injuries, and 421 deaths.
So is it worth taking the time to make the call? Simple answer is yes. And the nice thing, it’s actually quite easy and free for both homeowners and contractors. And now a days you can also make the request online. Each state has it’s own unique site. SC811.com,NC811.com, and for Florida sunshine811.com

I was pleasantly surprised when I looked at the content of SC’s 811 website. There are training modules, manuals, industry updates, and items pertinent to the State of SC. Occasionally, site prep for a whole home automatic standby power unit will take some digging. Placing the generator might involve building a foundation or excavating some drainage. Often times it involves digging for the electrical work. Never Dark Power Solutions takes advantage of resources such 811 to protect ourselves and our clients in all three States that we serve.
