Pipe Locating and Tracing in the Provinces of Brescia, Mantova and Verona
We accurately locate the route and depth of pipes, water mains and underground pipelines, avoiding invasive work and unnecessary excavation.
Precise location of underground pipes
Not knowing exactly where pipes run can cause problems during maintenance, renovation, excavation or building extension work. Sirmio Spurghi offers a professional pipe tracing and locating service across the provinces of Brescia, Mantova and Verona, using advanced equipment to locate underground pipe routes from above ground.
This service locates sewer pipes, drains, water mains and other underground utilities without the need for initial demolition or extensive excavation. The survey maps the route of the pipe, pinpoints its location and estimates its depth. This makes it possible to plan subsequent work more safely while reducing time, costs and the risk of damage.
Pipe Locating and Detection
Sirmio Spurghi's pipe locating service pinpoints the route of underground pipes without the need for exploratory excavation. Using the latest electronic equipment, we can quickly, safely and non-invasively map sewer networks, water mains and other underground utilities.
The service is available to homeowners, apartment buildings, businesses and public authorities in the provinces of Brescia, Mantova and Verona. Locating pipes in advance avoids disruptive work, reduces repair costs and significantly shortens maintenance and restoration times.
What We Can Detect
- Pipes made of PVC, cast iron, concrete and other materials
- Underground Sewer Networks
- Drainage and sewer pipes
- Water supply pipes
- Cables and Underground Utilities
- Pipe routes beneath paving or asphalt
Professional equipment
For pipe locating, we use electronic radio-frequency equipment: professional metal detectors, sonde probes and high-sensitivity transmitters/receivers that can detect the position and depth of pipes, even in the presence of interference. All equipment is regularly calibrated and updated in accordance with industry standards.
Pipe tracing can be combined with our CCTV inspections for a complete assessment of the underground network. Combining the two services reveals both the pipe route and its internal condition.
How We Work
- Free preliminary site inspection to assess the area and define the search scope.
- Connecting the equipment to the existing network or applying an external signal to the pipe using a dedicated transmitter.
- Systematic tracing of the route, progressively mapping the position and depth of the pipe.
- Results are provided to the client, including a plan showing the route and documentation of the work carried out.
Documentation Provided
At the end of the job, the customer receives a technical report detailing the route identified, estimated depth, any issues detected and photographs of the area. The documentation is useful for designers, municipal technicians, law firms and insurance claims.
Requests for complete documentation must be made at the time of booking.

Water Main Tracing and Location
Tracing water mains and buried water networks makes it possible to accurately locate the route and depth of water pipes without exploratory digging, reducing time, costs and environmental impact. Suitable for utility providers, apartment buildings, businesses and homeowners who need to locate existing networks before construction or excavation work.
Equipment Used
We use state-of-the-art professional equipment: low- and high-frequency electromagnetic locators, signal generators and highly sensitive multidirectional receivers. These tools can detect metal pipes and, with suitable accessories (probes/transmitters), PVC or other non-metallic pipes as well.
Work Method
- Preliminary site inspection and review of available information on the water network
- Signal injection and area scanning with an electromagnetic locator
- Route mapping and depth measurement, with on-site marking
Results and Documentation
At the end of the job, we provide documentation of the survey, including the route, measured depths and useful reference points for any subsequent work. A report can be provided in print or digital format upon request when booking.
When to Request This Service
- Before any excavation, drilling or construction work in an urban area
