Vacuum Extraction
At LCM we are always looking for new and innovative ideas to carry out our clients' projects with minimal risk and disruption to their sites.
Recently we have started to use our new Vacuum Extractor Unit to minimise disruption to our clients sites and minimise risk to personnel. It is an extremely useful when it comes to excavating near or around underground utilities such as electricity, drainage and water mains.
Due to the massive suction caused by the Vacuum Extractor, breaking out and use of conventional excavators is unnecessary meaning there is little or no risk to any underground utilities becoming compromised in the excavation process.
Please see below for examples of our Vacuum Extractor Unit at work. For further information on LCM Vacuum Excavation services please contact us
