safe & effective alternative to mechanical digging
Vac excavation offers a safe and effective alternative to mechanical excavation. The technology utilises high pressure water and an industrial strength vacuum to locate underground services where the area is unknown, risk of damage is high, or assets have not been identified on site plans. This machinery is usually used in cities and suburban areas, where underground assets are common.
Vacuum Technology That Ensures Results
The technology utilised by vacuum excavation methods ensures that your projects are completed with precision and accuracy in mind. The non-mechanical digging methods employed in the process mean you don’t need to worry about added costs of underground asset damages. The result is safe, fast, and accurate excavations that usually require less labour, restoration time and backfill.

safety
valuing the safety of our employees & others on the site
While vacuum excavation is non-destructive and less invasive to the environment, it can also offer safety benefits to operators and others using the site. The technology uses high pressure water to break up the soil before vacuuming the slurry into a debris tank, so no mechanical digging is needed.
