What Is Hydro Excavation?

Hydro excavation (also called vacuum excavation) uses pressurized water to break up soil and a powerful vacuum to remove the slurry into a debris tank — offering a safe, accurate alternative to traditional mechanical digging.

Ideal for:

  • Potholing or daylighting (utility locating)
  • Trenching for new utility lines
  • Exposing sewer or water mains
  • Digging near gas or electrical lines
  • Excavation near sensitive roots, foundations, or concrete
  • Cold-weather digging when ground is frozen
No shovels. No backhoes. No unnecessary damage.
