Our Mission

Is Safety

Sask 1^st Call is a service for anyone planning to dig or excavate. The service provides underground facility screening and notification for safe excavation. The Sask 1^st Call team is dedicated to the prevention of unnecessary damage, injury or death due to unsafe digging practices. We look forward to serving you for your own safety, and that of our communities.

It’s important to remember that not all companies subscribe to Sask 1^st Call. It is up to the excavator to find and contact those unregistered facilities by contacting owners through land titles, municipalities, cities and towns.
