When digging, drilling, boring or excavating on a job site, sometimes locates are not accurate or sometimes pipes are missed and you end up damaging them.  The company whose pipes that you damaged then responds to the situation and sends you a large bill that covers their losses and repairs the pipe.  Keep in mind this bill might contain more than what you actually damaged and that is where Elite comes into play.  Our professionals analyze the bill to research for liability and are able to make recommendations or negotiations for the actual costs. 

Some of the issues that are frequently encountered are:

• Two very common problem areas include excessive labor hours/rates associated with the cost of repair.
• Many times excavation charges are inflated to include unnecessary equipment charges as well as hourly rates.
• In a gas re-light situation many hours are added onto your claim cost.
• Gas loss computation is a very problematic issue because it is not an exact science. Gas companies always use the formula most favorable to them when computing loss.
