If you need to expose underground utilities, hydrovac excavation should be your preferred option. The process gains access without damaging any of the assets.
You may have a project where there is a build up of debris and or soil. Hydro excavation can clean areas without affecting existing infrastructure. It can be used to clean catch basins and drainage structures.
Downtown Vancouver streets are sometimes narrow, creating challenges to excavate and expose conduit or pipes. Even residential backyards are challenging to get at. Hydrovac service can work hundreds of feet away, allowing the vacuum truck to park away from the congestion
Slot Trenching
If you need trenches dug, Hydrovac excavation is the best to use as it distributes less soil than a backhoe.
Low Ceiling Applications
If you own a parkade or underground garage, getting access to the catch basins to clean can be more than challenging. Fortunately, EdenFlo has a substantial fleet of “Low Boy” vacuum pump trucks that can get at most low ceiling applications
Cold Weather Excavation
Although we don’t get there that often in the lower mainland, freezing conditions can cause excavation issues. Using hydrovac techniques, frozen soil is mixed with warm water and the “slurry” is vacuumed up by the vacuum truck. This is a very effective method to expose assets
