Why Do You Need Vacuum Excavation?
Vacuum excavation is almost always the best solution for moving earth or other materials on your site. If you are dealing with hidden utilities, especially where the utility plan is old or unreliable, vacuum excavation is the safest choice. Cable strikes can be dangerous and cause disruption and financial implications for your project. Vacuum excavation removes the risk associated with more traditional excavation methods such as digging. Vacuum excavation is also a more environmentally friendly excavation method. Despite the power of the vacuum excavation method, it is remarkably gentle, allowing the earth to be removed from around tree roots without damaging them. It can also extract earth from under the topsoil without destroying the top layer, which helps maintain local ecosystems. Due to the vacuum nature of this excavation method, the dust that would be released into the air during traditional excavation is captured within the excavator. This is beneficial in reducing air and water pollution, which is better for the environment and your workforce. Vacuum excavation is rapid, and large quantities of material can be moved quickly. This, in turn, reduces the cost of excavation. The vacuum excavation method can be used on a vast range of sites and can overcome issues and difficulties within the project.
