Working with Valeo Construction Group & phoenix_labour_traffic to help make this a safe piling job near overhead powerlines today ✅ Arcing can happen without touching powerlines - don't store, load or unload items near overhead powerlines. If your job requires a No-Go-Zone spotter then give us a call. We've grown to a team of 15, so chances are that we'll have one that's nearby. ✅ No-go-zone permits & spotter on site
Photo thanks to John.
Set up your delivery zone in a safe and secure location, and talk with employees and contractors about working safely around powerlines, including what to do if someone hits one.
If your job requires that you MUST encroach on the spotter and/or no-go-zone around powerlines, then talk to us about permits & attendance by accredited spotters to ensure that it gets done SAFELY.

Harry & Zak ready to go on a rendering & painting job for Indetail Projects (Sunshine). The consistent wet weather over the past 2 weeks has played havoc with the schedule, but our spotters are available 24/7 state-wide so the job can get done.
