Hydro Excavation
Our hydro excavation service uses pressurized water and vacuum systems to safely expose utilities and dig trenches. This non-destructive method prevents damage to underground infrastructure while ensuring precision. Ideal for frost penetration and sensitive environments, it combines 28 Hg vacuum suction with heated water systems for year-round reliability.
Daylighting Utilities
We specialize in safely exposing buried lines and cables without damage. Using hydro excavation, we precisely remove soil around utilities for inspection or repair. This method eliminates risks associated with traditional digging tools, ensuring worker safety and infrastructure integrity during utility maintenance projects.
Directional Drilling Support
Our directional drilling support includes bentonite and mud removal services. We assist in creating underground pathways for pipelines and cables while maintaining surface integrity. The process ensures clean removal of drilling byproducts, supporting efficient installation of underground utilities across challenging terrains.
Core Drilling
We provide core drilling services for creating precise openings in concrete and soil. This method enables accurate placement of utilities through foundations and structures. Our equipment ensures clean, controlled drilling without compromising structural integrity, supporting both new construction and renovation projects.
Trenching
Our trenching services create precise channels for utility installation while protecting existing infrastructure. Using hydro excavation, we minimize root damage during tree preservation projects and ensure clean, accurate trenches for pipelines, cables, and drainage systems across residential and commercial sites.
