The company said: “With vacuum excavation technology improving all the time, we are now able to minimise the risk of cable and utility strikes using this improved technology as opposed to traditional digging methods.

“We see this as a big step in the right direction to improve safety for the task of excavating near uncharted or buried services and we are happy to be involved in this safer more efficient method.

“We believe that the vacuum excavators will be a welcome addition to our fleet and our customers can rely on us to provide vacuum excavation services to the high operational standard that they can expect from us.”
