Vacuum Excavation
Protect utilities with
precise underground excavation
Hydro vacuum excavation is a favoured non-destructive digging method in the construction industry for its ability to excavate around underground utilities and infrastructure safely. Tasman Excavations uses cutting-edge plant and equipment to offer specialist hydro vacuum excavation services, providing a safe, accurate, efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to manual and mechanical digging.
Other excavation methods risk unnecessary, avoidable damage and service delays to vital underground utilities and infrastructure. In contrast, our hydro vacuum excavation technology uses high-pressure water and vacuum systems to break up soil and precisely expose buried assets, leaving them untouched. It avoids the need for heavy machinery, further protecting utilities and infrastructure. The result is an optimised approach to digging with reduced labour, backfill and restoration requirements. Projects gain the advantages of a smarter, safer approach with greater program certainty.

Vacuum excavation services
Our hydro vacuum excavation services support a range of project objectives – all reducing the risk of damage to utilities, such as water, gas, communications and power, alongside infrastructure, such as sensitive foundations. The method’s surgical precision safeguards valuable underground assets via accurate locating and safe excavation for construction projects and maintenance works. In doing so, it helps projects avoid costly repairs and downtime, while improving safety, accuracy and efficiency in the field.
This powerful, non-destructive solution also improves safety for project teams, key stakeholders and the wider public by reducing the potential for accidents and damage. Our hydro vacuum excavation services also offer further value, such as delivery amid tight access in challenging and confined spaces, improved night works with reduced noise around sensitive receptors, and less soil and surface disruption and associated restoration works.
