NON-DESTRUCTIVE
Vacuum excavation reduces the risks when exposing or digging around utilities. There are two methods of doing this: either by water or air.
Hydro vacuum excavation with a Vac truck highly reduces the possibility of harming or interfering with crucial underground utilities in Brisbane as opposed to conventional mechanical excavation using bobcats, backhoes, or bulldozers. Underground Utilities damage can happen for a variety of causes, such as operator error, incorrect or missing service location markings, the discovery of additional lines beneath a single service, and occasionally, the blatant disregard for standard construction practices.
Service Locating offers advanced electromagnetic line locating technology to assist with cable locating for excavation work, site planning, and safe digging on residential properties.
It is crucial to locate cables before any excavation work as digging into cables, especially power cables, can result in fatalities and costly repairs.
SEQ Vacuum Excations provides utility cable locating services to a wide range of clients, including construction engineers, architects, surveyors, contractors, government departments, developers, and homeowners.
In the past, locating underground cables was based on utility company records which were often outdated and limited in accuracy. However, with the increase in renovations and data cables, traditional methods were no longer sufficient. With our advanced technology, a three-dimensional plan can be provided, showing all buried cables with over 97% accuracy, without the need for invasive digging.

In order to securely excavate, non-destructive digging (NDD), non-evasive, economical, and accurate processes are used. Vacuum hydro excavation is now frequently much more cost-effective for completing your excavation needs while protecting underground services. We provide a full range of expert hydro excavation and Vac truck services across the Gold Coast, Brisbane, South East Queensland, and beyond.
We use several different methods to locate underground services, but the most common and effective is electromagnetic radio waves. This method involves a transmitter and receiver to send and pick up signals through pipes and cables.
Yes, it is essential to locate underground utilities before excavation to avoid damaging pipes and cables, which can be costly and dangerous.
Yes, we can locate your house connections using electronic locating equipment.
Yes, we can locate optic fibre cables using specific electronic locating equipment designed for non-metallic lines.
Electronic underground locations are highly accurate, but accuracy depends on several factors, including the equipment used, the depth of the service, and the composition of the surrounding soil.
Electronic locators can detect pipes and cables up to 6 meters deep, depending on the soil type and composition.
Underground service locators are professionals who use specialised equipment to locate underground utilities, pipes and cables.
We use various marking methods, such as paint, flags, or stakes, to identify underground services on-site.
Construction companies, utility providers, and homeowners are some of the most common clients who use underground service locators.

Brisbane ( (listen) BRIZ-bən) is the capital and most populous city of Queensland, and the third-most populous city in Australia and Oceania with a population of approximately 2.6 million. Brisbane lies at the centre of South East Queensland, which includes several other regional centres and cities. The central business district is situated within a peninsula of the Brisbane River about 15 km (9 mi) from its mouth at Moreton Bay. Brisbane is located in the hilly floodplain of the Brisbane River Valley between Moreton Bay and the Taylor and D'Aguilar mountain ranges. It sprawls across several local government areas, most centrally the City of Brisbane. The demonym of Brisbane is Brisbanite.The city is also called Meanjin, the Aboriginal name referring to land on which parts of the city are built. Aboriginal groups claiming traditional ownership of the area include the Yugara, Turrbal and Quandamooka peoples. Brisbane occupies the land of a number of Aboriginal language groups, primarily the Yugara language group which includes the Turrbal language.The Moreton Bay penal settlement was founded in 1824 at Redcliffe as a place for secondary offenders from the Sydney colony, and soon moved to North Quay in 1825 on the banks of the Brisbane River, so named for Sir Thomas Brisbane. German Lutherans established the first free settlement of Zion Hill at Nundah in 1838, and in 1859 Brisbane was chosen as Queensland's capital when the state separated from New South Wales. By the late 19th century, the city had grown into a major port and centre of immigration.
