Frequently Asked Questions For Sign Installations

Why is BC 1 call required for my sign installation?

Coastal Post completes all the necessary due diligence in accordance with BC 1 Call and WCB to prevent personal injury, property damage, and disruption of essential services.

Under your client's property may lie natural gas pipes, power lines, hydro, communication lines and sewage. When the utility lines are damaged there is a potential risk of electrical hazards, natural gas hazards, and there could be a risk to public safety.
