GPR Equipment Hire Requires Calibration Evidence and High-Value Asset Protection
A GPR system used to verify utility positions before excavation must be correctly calibrated and operated within its specification. A miss attributed to uncalibrated equipment or an unsuitable antenna selection becomes a utility strike claim. GPR systems are also worth tens of thousands — without serial tracking and damage deposits, hire companies absorb losses with no documentation to support recovery.
