Vacuum Excavation & Potholing

Vacuum excavation uses suction to expose buried lines without heavy mechanical digging. Potholing confirms the depth and location of existing utilities before a bore or trench goes in. TLT self-performs it alongside the underground work it supports.

Vacuum Excavation & Potholing scope

  • Confirming existing utilities ahead of directional drilling or trenching
  • Crowded corridors with many buried lines
  • Exposing a line for tie-ins, repairs or relocations
