Home/Services/Vacuum Excavation

Safe, Precise, and Efficient Excavation for Complex Underground Environments.

Vacuum excavation, also known as non-destructive digging (NDD) is a modern, dual-purpose method that uses pressurised water to loosen soil and underground materials, followed by high-powered suction to remove debris and expose utilities safely. This technique allows excavation and maintenance work to be performed without damaging nearby underground services such as gas, water, electrical, and communication lines.

At M&B Civil, we use vacuum excavation to provide a safer, cleaner, and more cost-effective alternative to traditional mechanical digging. Our experienced team works closely with clients to identify the most efficient and practical approach for each site, ensuring projects are delivered with minimal disruption and maximum precision.
