hydrovac excavation service

allows risk-free digging around essential services underground

Choosing hydro evacuation (also known as hydro excavation) over the old digging method can help you solve all kinds of problems without risking infrastructure damage. It also provides you with a safer way to uncover defective underground assets. On top of that, it offers a lot of advantages over traditional excavation including:
  • Reducing cave-ins resulting from the disruption of the surrounding soil
  • Faster completion of your excavation project
  • No need to use additional equipment because only water and the sucker truck are required
  • Zero to minimal damage to pipes or other underground assets
  • Does not require additional workforce to remove soil underneath the excavation site
  • Works for a variety of soil types including permafrost
  • Can be used in hard to access locations because truck can be positioned at most 100 feet away from the site

Hydro excavation safeguards your site and the surrounding environment and underground services

Hydro excavation removes the earth and heavy debris by a powerful suction hose, rather than by manual trench excavation. It also safely identifies services such as gas, water, electric, phone & fibre optic cables preventing possible damage.
Using our specialised equipment means that you can be assured of safely excavating without risk of unintended damage. Applications of the technology include:
  • Pole and pile holes in tight spaces
  • Checking for services below
  • Foliage and vegetation trenching without damaging tree roots
  • Exposing services for repair, maintenance or to lay new alongside old
  • Excavating beneath existing footpaths and driveways with minimal to no damage
  • Trenching around transformers without damaging power cables
