    A message from our Managing Director…

    If you need safe, effective and environmentally friendly vacuum excavations, you need LMD Vacuum Excavations.

    LMD is uniquely qualified to solve your vacuum excavation challenges. We have the UK’s largest fleets of specialised vacuum/suction excavators.

    Our fleet is the UK’s most diverse and flexible including High Tip, Left Tip, Right Tip, Power Arm, None-Power Arm, Stainless Steel skip, Vac-Tron wet system, Tracked and Triple Fan units, an Amphitec, Brokk and so much more! LMD’s City Safe is Britain’s first vacuum excavator specifically designed for use in city centres.

    We believe that over the next 10 years, vacuum excavation will become the standard excavation method on construction and utility projects. Furthermore, vacuum excavation is so safe and flexible that LMD has created a Special Projects Division to make it available across all industrial and commercial sectors.

    With depots based in Chesterfield, Cannock, Peterborough and Scotland, which are all close to the UK’s motorway network, we are able to respond quickly to meet the needs of your specific project.

    What is Vacuum Excavation?

    Vacuum Excavation is a safer, lower risk and more efficient alternative to traditional excavation methods.

    In essence, any operation that involves excavating with high risks of line strikes and utility damage, vacuum excavation is the go-to option!

    By combining high-pressure water with an air vacuum, these excavators can remove enormous amounts of unwanted material from an area with minimal damage. Vacuum Excavation can work within Utilities, Construction, Highways and so much more! Here are just some of the benefits of using Vacuum Excavation:

    • Less invasive technology and faster results when compared to traditional methods of excavation and older excavation equipment.
    • Virtually no digging involved, and because water isn’t used to blast dirt loose, the dirt that is suctioned away can usually be used as backfill.
    • High precision suction and locating, meaning lower risks of personal injury or work site issues such as hitting electricity or sewer pipes.
    • Vacuum Excavation requires less manpower when compared to conventional digging equipment and methods. Therefore, is more cost efficient.
    • Dirt and dust are stored in the vacuum excavation trucks’ debris tank, keeping the area clean and providing minimal disruption to traffic and the public. Until tipped into an agreed area.
    • A vacuum truck is also a far gentler form of equipment and doesn’t pose as much of a threat to personnel or the environment.

    Vacuum Excavation is becoming a highly popular form of excavation, with its’ safety benefits, cost-efficiency, and benefits on the environment.
