Hydro Excavation
Pressurized water and vacuum removal for controlled digging near buried infrastructure.
Core serviceHydro excavation cuts soil with pressurized water and pulls the spoils into a debris tank with an industrial vacuum. It supports controlled work near gas, water, electric, fiber, sewer, and other buried infrastructure.
The excavation scope can be planned around the work the field team needs completed: exposing a utility, opening a trench, cutting a narrow slot trench, or removing loosened material and debris.
Expose buried utilities to confirm position, depth, and field conditions before work proceeds.
Create controlled trench paths for installation, repair, conduit, utilities, and site preparation.
Vacuum-remove slurry, spoils, and jobsite debris as part of the excavation workflow.
CCTV pipeline inspection and jetter truck cleaning can be requested as their own scopes.
Most jobs run on an hourly truck-and-crew rate with a four-hour minimum, plus a mobilization charge based on distance. Larger scopes get a day rate or a firm project quote.
Planned work is usually scheduled two to five business days out. Emergency call-outs move ahead of the queue.
Dispatch confirms who files the 811 ticket during scheduling. Crews verify the marks on site before any soil gets cut.
