Excavating around underground utilities is a risky task that can lead to accidental damage. Vacuum excavation, also known as potholing, is a safe and non-destructive technique used to expose buried utilities without causing harm.
What is Vacuum Excavation?
This method uses a combination of air or water pressure to break up the soil while a powerful vacuum removes the loosened material. This creates a precise and controlled excavation, making it ideal for delicate underground utility exposure.
Why Choose Vacuum Excavation?
🔹 Minimizes Damage Risk – Unlike traditional digging, vacuum excavation prevents accidental strikes.
🔹 Safe for Workers & Environment – Reduces the risk of injuries and prevents soil contamination.
🔹 Cost-Effective – Reduces repair costs and speeds up project timelines.
