I'm having a portion of my driveway concreted. I'm also installing a drain to take the water away from the concrete and the house. To do this I have to cross over where my electric and phone lines are buried. I know where the lines are, but do not know the depth. I vaugley remember the builder digging the trench for the electric service and I belive it is 24 inches deep (or close). What are the chances the phone line is in the same ditch?
If the phone is not in the same ditch would it at least be inside some conduit? I"m worried about cutting through it. I'm sure my electric service is in conduit, and I only need to go 10 to 12 inches deep.
Any ideas on how to best to accomplish this?
I called the utilities and they put me in touch with a service that can locate the lines. I KNOW where they are, just not the depth. So they were of no help at all.
