Trinity Subsurface provides air and hydro vacuum excavation, test holes and daylighting across the Lehigh Valley and the suburban counties around Philadelphia: Bucks, Montgomery, Chester and Delaware. Each test hole confirms a utility's exact depth, size and material as ASCE 38 Quality Level A data, so designers and contractors can build around it with confidence.

EM and GPR tell you where a line runs, but not always how deep it is or what it's made of. On pharmaceutical, hospital and university campuses, large chilled water mains, electric duct banks and sewers often sit side by side. A vacuum-excavated test hole exposes each one without damaging it, so its depth, size and material can be measured and surveyed before design or construction moves forward.
Our team relies on a variety of technologies and methods to fully examine your site. We use electromagnetic scanning, ground penetrating radar and more to get the best info on subsurface utilities and underground infrastructure.
Our team offers multiple services to support your projects on top of utility locating and concrete scanning. Ask us about additional utility investigation services we can offer for further support beyond GPR locating and scanning.
We aim to provide ongoing support for your current and upcoming projects. Whether you're just starting design or running into unexpected utilities during construction, we'll investigate and assist with any step of your project.

A test hole, or pothole, is a small excavation made with air or hydro vacuum equipment to expose a buried utility without damaging it. It confirms the line's exact depth, size and material, recorded as ASCE 38 Quality Level A data.
Our vacuum excavation crews focus on the Lehigh Valley and the suburban counties: Bucks, Montgomery, Chester and Delaware. For locating and CCTV inspection inside the city, call our Philadelphia line at (610) 492-6262.
