What is hydro excavation?

One of the biggest challenges with any earthworks is avoiding damage to underground pipes, cables, or services. Hydro-excavation or non-destructive digging uses a high-pressure water lance to loosen and break up the soil, which is then recovered using a high-velocity vacuum to expose underground services safely.

Whether it’s exploratory excavations, new service installations, or maintenance, non-destructive digging is the safest and most effective way to expose and excavate around underground infrastructure. At Pipe Doctor, our modern fleet of high-velocity combination jet/vac trucks ensures our experienced team can increase productivity and eliminate time wasted fixing damaged infrastructure through traditional excavation methods.

What are the benefits of non-destructive digging?

The main benefit of hydro vacuum excavation would be that it dramatically reduces the risk of damaging underground utilities and infrastructure. However, there are many other key benefits such as:

Reduction of environmental impact with minimal surface disruption

Reduced reinstatement costs

Ability to precisely identify depth, size, and material of assets without causing damage

Reduction in noise pollution

Reduction of labour costs

Post-hole digging

Sign-post digging

Tree removal

Exposing optic fibres
