What Is Hydrovac Excavation?
Hydrovac excavation is the only method to non-destructive digging. We use a specialized truck equipped with high-pressured water to safely and precisely break up soil and simultaneously vacuum it up. The soil or slurry is then sucked into the truck-mounted debris tank.
Why Use Hydrovac Excavation Over Regular Methods?
By using pressurized water to unearth your infrastructure, your result will clean, quick and precise. It is the safest method with little risk of cutting through utility lines and is capable of cutting through any type of soil, including clay. And with the use of our onboard boilers, hydrovacs can work through the winter months while traditional digging methods are left frozen.
Is the Price Comparable?
Yes, it is comparable and can actually be cheaper on smaller projects due to the precision and accuracy of the dig.
