Working with Our Vacuum Excavation Truck

For safe and precise excavation work, our vacuum excavation trucks, equipped with twin turbines and operated by experienced operators, can be deployed. Thanks to their powerful suction capacity and controlled operation, these trucks are particularly suitable for sensitive environments and locations where conventional excavation is difficult or carries a higher risk. Our vacuum excavation trucks are primarily used for trial holes, allowing underground cables and utilities to be carefully exposed without the risk of damage. This technique is also increasingly used for excavation work near trees, helping to minimise damage to root systems. As our vacuum excavation trucks remove and store the excavated material themselves, they are ideal for use in busy built-up areas, where they help to keep disruption to a minimum.

Our Vacuum Excavation Services

Our vacuum excavation trucks

Our vacuum excavation trucks are equipped with, among other features, a mega arm, IKE swivel head, high-pressure system and air spade, allowing efficient operation in a wide range of conditions. The systems are also ATEX-certified and approved for work on Elia sites, making them suitable for environments with enhanced safety requirements.

Trial trenches

When carrying out trial trenching, soil is carefully and precisely removed using our powerful vacuum excavation trucks. This controlled approach significantly reduces the risk of damage compared with traditional excavation methods. It allows us to clearly identify existing underground infrastructure without causing unnecessary damage to the surrounding area or existing utilities.

Our vacuum excavation trucks also allow us to work precisely, removing only the amount of soil that is necessary. This minimises the impact on the surrounding environment and reduces disruption on site. The technique is also particularly valuable in hard-to-reach areas or locations with a high density of underground infrastructure.

Thanks to the combination of precision, safety and efficiency, trial trenches using vacuum excavation trucks are an ideal way to thoroughly map underground conditions in advance. This allows subsequent excavation and infrastructure works to be planned and carried out with greater confidence.

Trial trenches with 3D-surveying

We carry out trial holes to verify the exact location of pipes, cables and other underground infrastructure. If required, these trial holes can also be accompanied by accurate 3D GPS surveying, allowing the discovered infrastructure to be digitally recorded with a high degree of precision. This data provides a reliable representation of the actual site conditions and forms a valuable basis for asset management, maintenance and future expansion. Thanks to the high surveying accuracy and detailed documentation, a complete and reliable as-built record can also be produced to meet the requirements of clients and network operators.

Tree Roots

When working near trees, it has become increasingly important in recent years to work carefully and in a controlled manner. Damage to tree roots can result in significant repair or replacement costs. Our vacuum excavation trucks can therefore be used to carefully expose soil while minimising unnecessary damage to the root system. This technique is not only ideal for cable and infrastructure works, but can also be used to locate and expose tree roots, for example as part of root remediation. This allows work to be carried out safely and efficiently while respecting the existing environment.

Removal of Contaminated Materials

Our vacuum excavation trucks are highly suitable for the safe and efficient removal of contaminated materials, such as contaminated soil, sludge, dust and other waste materials. This technique is particularly useful for soil remediation, where contaminated ground needs to be removed in a controlled and precise manner. Thanks to the powerful suction systems, materials can be removed without further spreading the contamination. This makes the method ideal for difficult-to-access locations or environments where safe, clean and controlled working conditions are essential. The extracted materials are stored directly in the containers of the vacuum excavation trucks, keeping the work site clean and minimising disruption to the surrounding area.
