Daylighting/Potholing
Daylighting, also known as potholing, is a hydrovac process that safely exposes underground utilities for inspection, maintenance, or installation, without the risk of damaging them. This method is essential for verifying the location, depth, and type of underground infrastructure, ensuring that subsequent construction or repair activities do not cause unintended disruptions. By using a non-destructive approach, daylighting minimizes the potential for costly repairs and service outages, making it a preferred choice for preparatory excavation work.
Trenching
Trenching involves the creation of narrow, but deep, trenches used primarily for the installation or maintenance of cables, pipes, and other underground utilities. The hydrovac process allows for trenching with minimal environmental impact and disturbance to the surrounding soil structure, preserving the integrity of the excavation site. This method is highly efficient, reducing the time and labor typically associated with mechanical trenching methods, while also offering unmatched precision.
Debris Removal & Clean-Up
Debris removal and clean-up services focus on maintaining clean and safe industrial and construction sites by removing debris, spills, and accumulated materials. This includes the cleaning of catch basins and storm drains, which is vital for preventing flooding and ensuring that drainage systems function properly. Hydrovac technology enables quick and efficient removal of debris from hard-to-reach areas, minimizing the risk of environmental contamination.
Slot Trenching
Slot trenching is used to dig precise, narrow trenches for the installation of utility lines or pipes, especially in constrained spaces or densely populated underground utility networks. This technique provides a safe and effective way to create trenches for small diameter installations, offering accuracy that cannot be achieved with traditional excavation methods. Slot trenching is ideal for urban environments where space is at a premium and the risk of disturbing existing utilities is high.
Pile Hole Excavation
Pile hole excavation is a specialized service that involves the creation of holes for the installation of piles, which are a fundamental part of the foundation for buildings, bridges, and towers. The precision of hydrovac excavation ensures the stability and alignment of piles, crucial for the structural integrity of large constructions. This method is particularly effective in areas with complex underground networks or in sensitive environmental conditions.
Frozen Ground Thawing
The ability to thaw frozen ground using heated water is a significant advantage in colder climates, allowing for year-round excavation activities. This process involves injecting hot water into the ground, melting the ice and softening the soil to facilitate excavation or installation of underground utilities. Frozen ground thawing is a critical service for maintaining project timelines and reducing the need for seasonal delays.
