Hydro Excavation
Hydro excavation utilizes high-pressure water and an air vacuum to remove and move excavated dirt or debris. Applications include underground utility construction and locating, slot trenching, line sign and pole installation, potholing, and remote digging.
Hydro excavation improves productivity and safety while keeping costs down and mitigating the risk of pipeline damage. The use of hydro excavation minimizes risk and upheaval, resulting in a less labor-intense process when compared to conventional excavation.
