Why Vacuum Excavation?


Digging through the soil using conventional techniques may risk damaging underground utilities such as pipelines and cables. Vacuum excavation, otherwise known as hydro excavation, is less invasive and more precise compared to other methods. Pressurised water enables the ground to break up—whether it’s soil, clay or rock. Utilising our specialised water jets, dirt is suctioned into the debris tank, minimising disruption to traffic flows and disposal of loosened materials.


With the use of a vacuum truck, we help minimise the cost in terms of manpower, preparation and turnaround time.

Powerful & Versatile Units


We have a fleet of vacuum excavators, also referred to as sucker trucks, hydro excavation and vac trucks, with a capacity to carry 3,000L to 8,000L of water. Regardless of the size or requirements of the project, we can help you choose the right truck to suit your budget and excavation needs.


No matter the accessibility issues, we can dig around the surfaces without damage. We can have all excess materials extracted and transferred safely into the unit vac tank. We then dispose of them at a designated site to reduce environmental impact.

Benefits Of Vacuum Excavation


Vacuum excavation is a modern method preferred for site digging on the Sunshine Coast, combining high levels of safety with efficiency. This technique uses air or water to loosen soil, which is then suctioned into a debris tank. It’s particularly suited for working near underground utilities, as it greatly lowers the risk of damaging these structures compared to traditional methods.


The key benefits of choosing vacuum excavation include better safety, minimal disruption to the surrounding area and precise digging capabilities. This approach also has less environmental impact and preserves the quality of the excavation site, making it ideal for sensitive or precision-required projects.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • What are the uses of vacuum trucks?

    Vacuum trucks are mainly used for non-destructive digging. They can also be utilised for multiple purposes such as: 


    • Safe dig post holes, footings & trenches.
    • Transporting liquid materials (e.g. lime, wastewater)
    • Clearing blocked drains through the use of jet rodding
    • Underground service locating
    • Removing loosened materials
  • How long does it take to dig using a vacuum excavator?

    The duration will depend on the scope of the job, the type of ground and other complications (i.e. dealing with tight spaces). For instance, digging through a rocky surface takes longer to complete than digging through sand. A vacuum excavation company will consider these aspects to give you an estimated time of completion.

  • How deep can a vacuum truck dig?

    A vacuum excavation unit can typically dig up to 5m deep depending on factors such as the distance of the underground utilities installed and the type of ground you are digging. The depth can vary depending on the equipment used and the scope of work.

  • What is vacuum excavation?

    Vacuum excavation is a digging method that uses air or water to loosen soil, which is then vacuumed up into a tank. This technique is preferred for its accuracy and safety, particularly when digging near underground utilities.

  • Why should I choose vacuum excavation over traditional digging methods?

    Vacuum excavation reduces the risk of damaging underground utilities, which can be expensive and time-consuming. It also causes less environmental disturbance, making it a considerate choice for urban and environmentally sensitive areas.
