Hydrovac Excavation & Daylighting
Non-destructive excavation that exposes underground utilities safely, using pressurized water and vacuum suction instead of a bucket.
Hydrovac excavation agitates soil with pressurized water while a vacuum truck removes the loosened material, exposing buried lines without the risk of a bucket or blade striking them. We run a mixed fleet — tridrive, tandem, and trailer-mounted hydrovac units — to match the truck to the site.
This is the same technique behind the "Clean Excavation" first step of our foundation repair process (see Foundation Repair), offered here as its own bookable service for utility and construction clients.
