Hydrovac
Services

Our hydrovac services offer a more reliable and effective method of excavation compared to traditional methods. Our Hyrdovac truck uses a combination of high-pressure water and a powerful vacuum to break up soil and debris. This immediately funnels the debris to the tank on the truck, making it nearly two times faster and less risk and labour.

Types of Services

Daylighting

Daylighting refers to the practice of digging to expose and locate underground utilities. We often dig to determine the vertical and horizontal location.

Soil Trenching

The process of digging narrow trenches to instal pipelines, cables and various in-ground utilities. We're able to dig in cold temperatures through frozen and icy soil.

Debris Removal

We can easily remove debris and clean out structures; even tight spaces. The boom component offers greater flexibility than heavy equipment to get the job done.

Piling Holes

Hydro excavation offers precision in digging that is not available with any other method. This allows for accurate diameters and depths to lay all pilings.

10 Benefits of Hydrovac Services

Enhanced Safety

Hydrovac excavation minimizes the risk of utility strikes and accidents compared to traditional methods like manual digging or mechanical excavation.

Precision Excavation

Hydrovac allows for precise digging, making it ideal for delicate projects such as utility location, potholing, and trenching near existing infrastructure.

Reduced Environmental Impact

Hydrovac excavation minimizes soil disturbance and reduces the potential for environmental contamination, making it an eco-friendly choice.

Faster Project Completion

Hydrovac excavation is typically faster than traditional methods, helping to expedite project timelines and reduce overall costs.

Minimal Disruption

Hydrovac excavation creates less noise and disruption compared to mechanical excavation, making it suitable for urban and residential areas.

Versatility

Hydrovac technology can be used for various applications, including excavation, trenching, daylighting, slot trenching, and debris removal.

Access To Confined Spaces

Hydrovac units are often compact and can access tight or hard-to-reach areas, allowing for excavation in confined spaces with ease.

Cost Effective

While upfront costs may be higher, the efficiency and precision of hydrovac excavation can lead to cost savings over the duration of a project, including reduced labor and restoration expenses.

Non-Destructive

Hydrovac excavation minimizes damage to existing underground utilities, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.

Compliance

Hydrovac excavation meets regulatory requirements and standards for safe excavation practices, ensuring compliance with local regulations and minimizing liability risks.
