Using Hydro Excavation To Expose Water Leak Job - Gold Coast
At Gold Coast Vac Trucks, we’re proud to support fellow local businesses across the Gold Coast and Tweed region, helping to make underground work safer, faster, and more efficient. Recently, we worked alongside the experienced crew at Astute Leak Detection to expose a difficult underground water leak that was deep, tricky, and hard to reach.
Hidden leaks like this are common across the Gold Coast’s residential areas, commercial sites, and civil projects. The challenge is not only finding the leak but exposing it without damaging other essential underground services. That’s where our
hydro excavation expertise comes in.
Why Hydro Excavation Was the Right Choice
Traditional digging methods can be dangerous around buried infrastructure. Power lines, water pipes, and communication cables are common in urban areas like Southport, Tweed Heads, and Burleigh Heads, and a single mistake can cause major disruptions.
By using our hydro excavation vacuum service, we were able to:
- Safely expose the leak without disturbing nearby services.
- Work at depth in a confined space where manual digging wasn’t safe.
- Speed up progress, helping the leak detection team complete their work more efficiently.
Hydro excavation uses high-pressure water to loosen soil, while a powerful vacuum removes the debris. This process is precise and safe, making it the preferred choice for
Gold Coast and
Northern NSW excavation projects.
Teamwork That Delivers Results
Partnering with the Astute Leak Detection team highlighted the value of combining skills. Their expertise in finding hidden leaks, combined with our ability to safely expose them, meant the job was completed quickly and without risk.
