OUR HISTORY
Lucky Locators, Inc. was established in 1996 and has always been family owned and operated. While working as a locator for ComEd, Lucky saw the need for private utility locating in the construction industry. When ComEd ceased providing their own locating services and parsed it out to other companies, Lucky took the opportunity to create his own private utility locating business.
For over 20 years Lucky Locators has worked with thousands of companies, public works departments, and state institutions. These include construction companies, electricians, water and sewer, plumbers, environmental, surveying, educational institutions, and railroads.
Because we are family owned and operated, we can run our business our way and with our beliefs in customer service and satisfaction. Lucky always believed that you take care of your clients by providing the best service at a reasonable rate. We take pride in our 98% retention rate that was earned by building client trust and making them feel appreciated, while providing excellent work and service, at a fair price.
