Hydro Excavation:

Hydro excavation is a mechanical means of using high-pressure water to break up soil while simultaneously removing the mud with a powerful vacuum. The method is a safe, non-destructive means of excavation which replaces conventional backhoe and digging techniques.

Applications for hydro excavation include subsurface utility engineering (SUE), pole and post hole installation, exposing underground utilities, curb stop repairs, anode installation, horizontal directional drill (HDD) projects, basement excavation and renovation, foundation repair, excavating in frozen ground, stump removal, creating trenches for geo-thermal installation, and more.
