Hydro Excavation Coffs Harbour

Reliable Excavation Preparation Solutions

Hydro excavation - also known as vacuum or ‘suck truck’ excavation - is a safe, non-invasive, and efficient method for underground works and utilities. At Cable & Pipe Locations, we can utilise hydro excavation equipment to remove the surface layers concealing gas and water lines, telecommunication connections or electrical cables, as well as encroaching natural elements such as tree roots. Hydro excavation can be performed relatively quickly and requires less labour than other excavation methods. For reliable hyrdo excavation in Coffs Harbour, contact us!

We have vacuum trucks that are available for wet hire, with unit capacities of 3,000 litre units,  up to 63,000 litre units for major projects. We will ensure we deploy the ideal truck for your needs.

Advantages of Hydro Excavation

There are numerous benefits to utilising the hydro excavation method to expose underground utilities. The following are just a few of them:

 

  • Enables collected soil & slurry to be collected directly into a debris tank, minimising mess at your worksite
  • Has much less of an impact on the environment than other excavation methods
  • Is perfect for creating holes for footings, pits, & trenches
  • Can minimise labour & reduce costs
  • Will help ensure that underground utilities – gas lines, power cables, etc. – remain unharmed

Testimonials

Having an extensive network of water, reclaim and sewer infrastructure we use the services of Cable & Pipe Locations on almost a daily basis. On many occasions we have encountered breaks on these services and have had to call upon Cable & Pipe Locations for emergency location services during business hours and after hours. Offering a quick response time, they have helped us to avoid damaging other underground services whilst repairing our infrastructure and minimising the disruption to our services. We also utilise their fleet of vacuum trucks and jetting units to assist in regular maintenance and other construction activities as we are constantly renewing and upgrading our system. I would be glad to recommend their services to any person demanding good responsive service.


- Brad L., Reticulation Co-ordinator. Coastal Works Coffs Harbour NSW

I have engaged Cable & Pipe Locations on many occasions, and I would like to thank them for their excellent service.

Over the years I have engaged other companies to provide a similar service, however I have found that Cable & Pipe Locations excel in this field. Whilst working upon the Pacific Hwy Upgrade from Coffs Harbour to Woolgoolga, we had the difficult task of locating all services over the entire project that was approximately 28kms long.Cable & Pipe Locations successfully located and protected the services along the project route resulting in zero strikes. Having the major optic fibre trunks from Sydney to Brisbane along the entire alignment we had to ensure accuracy on these critical assets.
