Hydroexcavation Services

Commercial Hydro Excavation Services

Wind River Environmental also offers expert hydro excavation services – the safest most efficient way to remove and excavate soil. More accurate and non-destructive than hard-edge tools, our highly trained technicians utilize a combination of high-pressure water and an air vacuum to easily move or remove soil, uncover underground utilities or any underground infrastructure. 

The hydro excavation (hydro vac) process is particularly effective for pipe and sewer line rehabilitation or landscaping. Using this process minimizes the disturbance or damage to the surrounding area.

Hydro excavation is increasingly popular for commercial properties due to its precision, efficiency, and safety advantages. Here’s how it applies to commercial settings:

Applications for Commercial Properties

Utility Installation and Maintenance:

  • Precise Digging: Helps in locating and exposing underground utilities like gas lines, water mains, and electrical cables without causing damage.
  • Installation: Assists in installing new utilities or making repairs with minimal disruption to existing infrastructure.

Foundation Work:

  • Trenching: Useful for creating trenches for foundations, footings, or other structural elements. The precise excavation minimizes the risk of undermining existing structures.

Site Preparation:

  • Clearing: Effective for clearing and preparing sites for new construction, particularly in areas with complex underground utilities or sensitive landscapes.

Potholing:

  • Locating: Provides accurate potholing to confirm the depth and location of existing utilities before starting construction or renovation projects.

Landscaping and Drainage:

  • Excavation: Ideal for landscaping tasks, including digging holes for posts, utility poles, and street signs and the installation of drainage systems, without disturbing large areas.

Environmental Compliance:

  • Remediation: Helps in environmentally sensitive areas where contamination might be a concern, reducing the risk of spreading pollutants.
