Hydro excavation which is also referred to as hydrovac excavation and daylighting is a safe method of surgical excavation that uses both high pressure water to break up soil and a powerful vacuum to perform the excavation.
Hydro excavation waste disposal.
Hydro excavation is a similar process but using pressurized water instead of air.
When applicable hydro excavation greatly enhances workplace safety and excavation efficiency.
Using the power of pressurized water hydro excavation removes or moves soil away from underground utilities water lines potholes and other areas of interest.
Many operations prefer hydro excavation because it is more powerful more precise and therefore faster.
We can manage and execute every phase of the hydro excavation process as well as transportation and disposal eliminating the need to engage multiple vendors.
Similarly a hydro vacuum service is used to suck up all the hydro excavation waste as you go transferring the soil and dirt into a tank for disposal later.
The by products of hydro excavation are chemicals and slurry which are difficult to dispose of or reuse responsibly.
Manual or mechanical digging methods are labor intensive and potentially damaging to underground utilities.
This is a safer and more environmentally friendly method than alternative options.
