Hydro Vac
What We Can Do
Hydro Vac allows us to excavate in locations where mechanical excavation would not be safe, feasible or practical. This method of excavating uses water pressure to liquefy the soil which is transferred by a high-powered vacuum for containment. Hydro vac is a non-destructive form of excavation that prevents damage to buried utilities that can be caused by mechanical excavation while mitigating debris and restoration costs.
The Hydro Vac can be used for the following tasks:
- Utility pole installation
- Utility daylighting and potholing
- Repair service pits
- Slot trenching
- Water box repairs
- Horizontal Directional Drill test holes and clean up
- Excavating in frost
