How Vacum Excavation Benefits the Construction and Utility Firms



With recent economic and industrial developments allowing high rise and civil work construction projects to boom and urbanisation to expand further across the continent, stakeholders (from the public and private sectors) should pay attention to utilities because it is through these utilities that progress flows. Without gas, water, electricity and telecommunications, progress cannot take place because our society has already become totally dependent on them. With this, level 1 ASP civil contractors need to make sure these utilities are properly installed.

And we owe to technology that allows these utilities to be installed and maintained without much hassles. One such technology that builders can depend on is vacuum excavation (both the air and hydro vacuum types). In what ways is vacuum excavation essential to certain stakeholders and to the construction industry in general?

Non-Destructive Excavation for the Construction Industry

There is really much digging in the construction industry where workers dig trench not only to lay down the foundations of buildings and other edifices but also to install utility pipes and cables. It is already much of a trouble when builders operate large equipment in limited spaces and fragile areas. Moreover, it is also for the interest of the general public that construction workers do not use drills or jackhammers to disturb people living nearby.

Non-destructive digging in the form of vacuum excavation is indeed tailored to meet the construction industry’s demand for safe excavating work. Contractors have three aims for vacuum excavation:
  • Contractors long to reduce energy costs of their equipment and devices.
  • They also long to reduce the number of personnel needed for trenching and excavating jobs.
  • They also need to increase work efficiency and reduce manpower hours.
  • They also want to minimise back jobs and accidents resulting from their excavating works.

Benefits for the Utility Providers

 For the water utility providers, they will have no trouble finding the exact location of any buried leaking pipes. There will be no longer any need to excavate the whole area just to find and repair a simple piping issue. They can contract vacuum excavation services to pinpoint the location of a piping problem and trench to fix or else replace if the pipe needs replacing. No hassles in the part of your water company.

For the power utility firms and telecommunication companies, power posts are the thing of the past and it is no longer cool for the wires to block your view of the sky. Time will come society will have less to do with wires hovering above us as many wires and cables are now installed underground. You can now freely fly your kite without obstacles.

Benefits for Town/City Councils

For the town and city councils, it will be no trouble for them to install new drainage or sewerage systems in new neighbourhoods. They can contract vacuum excavation service providers to dig trenches and excavations so builders can construct new drains and sewers and even upgrade existing ones.

Who needs large earth-moving equipment when one can contract a firm to provide non-destructive excavation? Vacuum excavation can help utility companies shelter their cables and pipes safety and civil contractors to carry out digging works safely and efficiently. Progress needs to take place safe and hassle-free too.
