What is Utility Potholing?

Utility potholing, also known as daylighting or vacuum excavation, is a non-destructive method used to expose and locate underground utilities. It involves using high-pressure water or air to safely break up soil, which is then removed using powerful vacuum equipment. This process uncovers the utilities without causing damage, allowing for accurate mapping, identification, and planning of subsequent excavation activities.
