Hydro Excavation

The operation of using high pressure water along with vacuum to remove debris.

Trained crews use high pressure water to erode the soils and debris to create a slurry. The onboard blower system draws up the slurry into the holding tank to be hauled to an approved dump.

Daylighting

The process of hydro excavation to provide eye sight of a buried cable, pipe, fiber line, electrical and pipelines.

Using the process of hydro excavation, soil is safely removed above the buried facility to bring daylight to it. This is where the term daylighting came from. This method provides an exact location of buried facilities.

Dewatering Service

The use of vacuum system to remove and haul water to disposal.

Using the vacuum ability of the truck, water or other liquids are easily able to be drawn from any location with the use of the boom or remote hoses for longer stretches.

Pressure Washing

Large water tanks on the hydrovacs provide long onsite times for washing. Hot water can also be used to increase cleaning power. This includes removing concrete spray from rebar, dirt, oil, mud, mold, paint and others unwanted materials from surfaces.

Trenching

The ability to excavate earth to required specifications.

Trenching is a general term for excavating a long a path. The trenches can be dug for a number of reasons. A wide trench can be used to lay in pipework. Slit trenches are typical only few inches wide and are used to quickly find any crossing buried facilities or are used to prove that there are no adjacent lines in the area.

Emergency Response

Quick mobilization to respond to immediate repairs.

Quick response is critical when lines are unintentional broken.  Any type of buried facility break or damage, needs immediate locating.  This can include, water main breaks, gas leaks, sewer line damage, broken fiber or communication lines and damage to electrical lines.

Utility Pole Hole

Hydro excavation to remove or install hydro poles.

Deep holes like the ones for hydro poles are easily created by using the high pressure lance and blower system. These holes are dug to exact specifications reducing the amount of back fill needed. This method can also be used to loosen material around the pole to either remove it or to make an alignment change.

Service Pits

Safe excavation to remove or install all sizes of service pits.

Removing a service pit like the ones for data distribution can only safely be dug up with the use of a hydrovac as the number of cables is immense. For installing a service pit, our hydrovacs can easily create the hole for the box to the required size and create curves to ease with the installation of large cables.

Manhole/Catch Basin Cleaning

Ability to clean and remove debris from basins.

Man holes or catch basins are often filled with road sand and other debris. The Hydrovacs are able to use the onboard water tanks to effectively clean lines, cables and the walls prior to entry.  The debris and water can be removed easily to be disposed of at an approved dump.

Streaming & Thawing

The use of hot water or steam to de-ice and thaw lines, services, culverts and pipework.

Boiler systems onboard the units are able to produce high volumes of hot water to safely melt or de-ice equipment. This includes thawing underground lines that have ice built up. Steam can also be utilized to clean surfaces/equipment including grease, oils, ice, and dirt.
