What the paint on your driveway actually means
Most people call 811 and assume everything underground is now marked.
That is not what happens
811 marks the public utilities. Everything on your side of the meter is yours.
- Irrigation mains
- Sub-panel feeds to a garage or ADU
- Sewer laterals
If it was installed by a previous owner, nobody has a record of it.
See the colour code for what each paint colour means.
