Call Before You Dig
Planning to install a fence, sprinkler system, or new landscaping? Texas law requires you or your contractor to contact 811 at least two business days before digging. This free service, funded by utility owners, helps prevent damage to underground lines, service disruptions, and project delays – keeping you and your community safe.
Projects that require contacting 811 include:
• Landscaping
• Building or repairing a fence
• Installing a sprinkler system
• Installing or replacing a mailbox
• Installing an in-ground basketball goal
• Any task that involves digging
Taking this simple step ensures safety and avoids costly mistakes. Call 811 before you dig!
Thank you for remembering to SLOW DOWN when driving near any construction area!
