Why Choose 811 Ticket Management Instead of Handling It In-House?
Outsourcing your 811 ticket process to specialists like us gives your company significant advantages compared to managing it internally. Here’s why:

Managing 811 tickets requires navigating complex state systems, coordinating with multiple utility companies, and staying on top of deadlines. We handle all of that for you, so your team can focus on what they do best — the project itself.
✅ Minimize Legal & Compliance Risks
Missing a step or deadline can lead to serious legal issues, project delays, or even fines. Our team knows every state-specific regulation and ensures your tickets are always compliant.
✅ Faster Turnaround, Fewer Delays
We have a dedicated process and direct communication channels with utility locators, speeding up responses and preventing project hold-ups.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an 811 ticket and why do I need one?
An 811 ticket is a legal request to have underground utilities marked before starting any excavation project. It’s required by law in all 50 states to help prevent damage to gas lines, fiber optics, water, electric, and other buried infrastructure. Failing to open a ticket before digging can result in serious fines and delays.
Can I submit my own 811 ticket? Why hire your service?

Which states do you cover?
We provide 811 ticket services nationwide across the United States. Each state has its own 811 system and requirements — and we’re experienced in handling all of them efficiently.
How long does it take for utilities to respond after the ticket is submitted?
Typically, utilities have 48 to 72 business hours to respond and mark the site. We track all responses in real-time and keep you informed every step of the way to avoid project delays.
What happens if a utility doesn’t mark in time?
We actively follow up with utilities and escalate when needed. Our proactive ticket management helps increase the chances of on-time marking, and if issues arise, we guide you through the best course of action.
Can you renew or update an existing 811 ticket?
Absolutely. We manage renewals, updates, and any changes in scope or location — so you stay compliant and on schedule, even when your project evolves.
Do you provide visual reports or maps?
Yes! We provide detailed reports with color-coded maps showing marked, unmarked, and pending areas. This makes decision-making easier and keeps your team aligned.
What if I hit a utility line during excavation?
If there’s a utility strike, we can help you open a Damage Ticket immediately and coordinate next steps. Fast action can reduce liability and get your project back on track quickly.
