Hydro-evacuation is used for pipe, pole and utility cable installations, location and maintenance.
Subsurface utilities are a part of most all construction projects. To traditionally dig or excavate channels for pipes and cables carries safety risks to personnel and traffic from heavy equipment close by the dig area. During hydro-excavation, the truck can be positioned at a distance.
Hydro-excavation also avoids damage to underground pipes, lines and cables often caused by mechanical methods. It is accurate and efficient, and does a better job of digging.
Pipe and sewer rehabilitation is another application for hydro-excavation. It reduces risks for damage to or puncture in the pipes, and eliminates high expenses for repairs and restoration.
By using hydro-excavation for landscaping, accurate excavation is done so the surrounding soil is not disturbed. The soil stays compact and strong while the necessary removal and is completed.
