With more than 10 years in the Hydrovac field, I can tell you that our experts perform superior work that includes line location, trenching, drilling, cleanups and clean-outs. Our company provides Hydrovac excavation used by high pressure H20 jets and vacuums. These jets and vacuums loosen and eliminate gravel without disturbing the surrounding environment. This is much easier to do than traditional excavation because there is no need for heavy machinery disturbing the ground and posing safety risks for workers in the machinery and on the ground. We offer excavation, manhole cleaning, culvert cleaning, shoring, pie holes, daylighting and line location. We also use our machine to do foundation repairs and expose foundation and utilities.

If your foundation is in need of repair, our skilled employees can come to your home and do the work for much less than a traditional excavation company. Traditional companies charge more because they need more manpower, machines and they have to dig up more than what the Hydrovac team would. If you are noticing your floors seem un-level, your walls are cracking, doors will not shut properly, this is a sign of a foundation that is in need of repair. The reason for a uneven or crumbling foundation is due to the soil under it shifting. If one part of the soil shifts and the other doesn’t, your foundation is going to be uneven and you will notice changes to your home such as the issues above.  Our Hydrovac specialists can use the piering or slabjacking method to repair your foundation walls. The slabjacking method involves a mixture of grout that is used to float the foundation back to its original place. The piering method will place supports underground that are going to lift and support the crumbling foundation. This type of work is much easier to do than tradition excavation and will save you money along the way. There is no removal of fencing, and the ground around your foundation is left untouched.

Hydrovac excavation is also perfect for exposing utilities around your foundation such as water lines, gas lines, power lines and more. Nothing is worse than someone digging up your lines and causing a power outage, water main break or gas leak because they had no idea the lines were there. The process of finding these lines through hydrovac excavation is daylighting. This means that the hydrovac excavation team will find the underground lines and expose them to the light of day. This increases productivity because the excavation team will not be digging blindly and they will know exactly where everything is, unlike traditional excavation. Traditional excavation may do this type of work as well but they are most likely going to do it all by hand and that is going to cost more money and take more time.

Our team of experts are highly trained and more than qualified to work on your most precious asset, your home.  Hydrovac excavation is the most efficient way to expose underground lines and repair your foundation at a lower cost than tradition excavation. We strive in customer satisfaction and job efficiency. We understand that the environment needs to be protected and that is why we made our equipment environmentally friendly and safe. I love my company and the joy we bring to our customers when they see that their entire lawn has been left untouched except for the places that needed to be fixed.
