Hydro Vacuum Excavation

What is Hydro Vacuum Excavation?

Hydro Vacuum Excavation is a very popular process used for digging and moving soil without damaging existing utilities using water and suction. 

​

Compared to traditional soil removal methods, such as shoveling, excavators and backhoes, Hydro Vacuum Excavation reduces the risk of property damage during the excavation process on any type of project. 

How Does It Work?

​

The Hydro Vacuum Excavation System uses highly pressurized water in conjunction with an air vacuum to break up soil.  Because the water is so highly pressurized, soil is easily loosened and then sucked up by an air vacuum and transferred to a debris tank with little to no chance of damaging existing utilities.

What are the Benefits of Hydro Vacuum Excavation?

​

Safer

​

Pressurized water is a non-mechanical method that will not destroy existing facilities.  Your workforce will be less at risk to damaging existing utilities and from personal injury from machine accidents. 

​

Save You Money

​

Hydro Vacuum Excavation doesn't require an immense amount of construction equipment or labor.  Also, because it's a more accurate method that won't critically damage the underground infrastructure of the environment, you're far less likely to pay to fix catastrophic repairs. 

​

Hydro Vacuum Excavation is a versatile solution for many applications, including cleaning storm water structures, water quality units (Aqua-Swirls), boring slurry removal, and slot trenching in tight areas.  Our Hydro Vacuum Excavation service allows for an easy, quick, and safe operation to perform these common work activities.
