1. What is vacuum excavation, and why should I choose it over traditional digging?

Vacuum excavation, also known as non-destructive digging (NDD), is a safer and more precise method compared to traditional excavation. It uses high-pressure water and a vacuum to expose underground utilities without causing damage. This reduces the risk of costly repairs, making it ideal for working around sensitive infrastructure in congested areas.
