Hydro Excavation
By Kyle Erwin Construction
What We Do
Hydro Excavation is the process of using heavy equipment know as a Hydrovac to trench through the ground. Water under high pressure cuts through the soil and a high volume vacuum then sucks up the slurry debris. Hydro Excavation is a gentle, fast, and efficient solution which serves a variety of functions. Most often used for Potholing or Daylighting, Hydrovacs are capable of exposing underground utilities like pipelines without damaging them with the heavy equipment.
Hydrovac Applications
-
Hydro Trenching
Through increased precision and speed, hydrovaccing has become one of the fastest forms of excavation when it comes to trenching.
-
Soft Digging
Utlizing pressurized water and a strong vacuum, Hydrovaccing is the choice method of excavation for hard to reach areas, and delicate projects.
-
Tank Clean-Outs
Not only used for digging, Hydrovac units are gentle enough to be used for a variety of both cleaning and maintenance jobs.
-
Daylighting
Daylighting is the process of excavating dirt and exposing subterranean utilities without damaging them.
