Hydro excavation, also known as hydrovac services, is a non-destructive method of excavation that uses high pressurized water to break apart soil to safely expose underground utilities for directional drilling projects, or during emergency excavation situations.
As one of the leading hydrovac companies in Alberta, our team utilizes state of the art vacuum trucks to complete this type of excavation service.
Protecting the environment and the property of our customers is a major factor behind our hydrovac services here at AABLE Directional Boring. It’s the safest way of excavating and works well even in the tightest spots.
Excavating with a hydrovac truck is quite simple, and the results are impressive.
Our hydrovac trucks are equipped with a high pressurized water hose that breaks apart the ground during the excavation. The water pressure is strong enough to break apart the soil, even in the coldest months, but not strong enough to damage the underground utilities.
Hydrovac excavation is typically a two-person job – one member controls the water hose and breaks apart the soil. Their team member assists during this process by maneuvering the suction hose, removing the soil and debris from the excavation hole.
The excavated soil is hauled away from your job site to prevent an unsightly workspace. Once the project is complete, we can haul the dirt back in to fill in any holes for a finished look and safe work environment.
We work with residential customers, utility service providers, oil and gas companies, among many others that span a wide range of industries. Our dedication to meeting the diverse needs out there in these communities has helped us build a solid reputation when it comes to hydro excavation solutions.
