What is Hydro Excavation?
Hydro Excavation is a safe and non-destructive form of excavation. By utilizing high pressure water and industrial strength vacuums, Hydro Excavation safely breaks up soil and removes it with surgical precision through vacuums into a debris tank. This highly effective task is perfect for working in situations where there is danger of damaging underground utilities. Because hydro excavation uses water to break up the soil, there is no risk of utility damage while utilizing this technology. Hydro Excavation is often referred to as: vacuum excavation, potholing, daylighintg, and hydrovac excavation.
While Hydro Excavation has been an excavation standard in Canada for many years (due to its safety and frozen soil benefits), it is an industry experiencing tremendous growth in the United States. To utilize this technology in your next excavation project, find hydro excavation services near you!
