Specialized Hydro-excavation Services

Leave a reply

Hydro-excavation is the science of using pressurized water to dig the earth and remove accumulating debris with the aid of a powerful vacuum pump. Although the service is not widely available, hydro-excavation has acquired immense popularity in a short time for the fact that it is a non-destructive, eco-friendly and time-efficient means of excavation.

Hydro-excavation uses a modern multi-purpose pump-truck which is fitted with a high-pressure water gun, a vacuum pump and a storage tank for collecting residual matter. The water gun bombards the earth with pressurized water which is shot through a steel lance at incredible speeds of 2000 to 3000 PSI. This ensures that the excavation process is carried out cleanly and with clinical precision.

The resultant slurry of water and soil is then collected with the help of the eight-inch high-pressure vacuum line which sucks in the all the debris and residual matter, channeling it to the truck-mounted storage tank. The collected debris is then transported to a suitable location where it can be dumped safely so as to minimize environmental and health hazards.

Hydro-excavation particularly comes in handy during installation of underground utilities like cables and lines. This is particularly true when considering the fact that the complex underground distribution of existing pipes and electrical cables makes conventional manual excavation techniques or hydraulic units, highly susceptible to accidents and potential fatalities.

The fact that the entire excavation unit is truck-mounted means that it is extremely mobile and can be transported anywhere at short notice. This significantly reduces the response time it takes to address the distress calls of customers. Hydro-excavation is a surprisingly risk-free excavation procedure while also being surprisingly affordable.

Moreover, as the excavation process is precise and clean, minimal damage is done to individual property. This completely eliminates the repair costs that are usually incurred due to property damages that are inflicted by employing conventional excavation services. Hydro-excavation is a proven method that, to date, has not incurred injuries, utility damage or loss of service.

Hydro-excavation is a greener initiative too since it conserves the natural resources and environment while also minimizing the negative impacts of human involvement. By restricting the excavation process to a small radius, the process minimizes the disruption to the environment, ensuring easier post-excavation reclamation. The use of clean water to blast the earth and the ensured restriction of slurry to a localized area are some of the other unmatched benefits that the process offers.

Edenflo – Hydro Flushing

The words ‘blocked’, ‘drain pipes’ and ‘sewer pipes’ are often used together in sentences, suggesting how frequently homeowners are plagued by clogging and blockage problems. Both drainage pipes and sewers are highly susceptible to clogging due to excessive usage over time. Drain and sewer blockage can introduce homeowners to a range of problems such as spewing drains and regurgitating toilets. If proper and timely attention is not invested in the thorough cleaning of these drains, such problems, much to the chagrin of homeowners, become a regular feature that demands both money and time.

Hydro Flushing is an innovative new process that comprehensively cleans drains and sewers, ridding them of blocked waste material and debris. The process uses a truck-mounted unit that shoots heated water through drainage and sewerage pipes at incredibly high pressure. The high-pressure heated water bombards tough waste material and debris from every nook and cranny while also clearing out grease, silt, slime and sludge owing to its high temperature.

Apart from being a quick and comprehensive solution to drain blockage, Hydro Flushing also offers a range of conveniences to homeowners such as the economy of time. Because the process is so comprehensive and efficient at clearing out waste and debris from drainage pipes, homeowners are also saved from the recurring expenses that are generally associated with frequent blockages.

Moreover, the use of heated high-pressure water instead of sharp tools ensures that drainage pipes, especially plastic and fiber pipes, do not suffer from damage during the cleaning process. This saves customers from repair costs that they would otherwise have to pay if they had hired a company using conventional cleaning procedures.

Catch Basin Cleaning

The need for catch-basin cleaning

Catch basins are openings for storm drain systems that catch sediments and debris through a curb, grate or sump. Catch basins stop trash from making their way into the drainage system while also to protecting the quality of the water by filtering out pollutants. Catch basins need regular cleaning and maintenance in order to ensure proper drainage. Sediment and debris that accumulates in the sump areas should be removed to allow free passage for water. Catch basins that are full of sediment and debris block the entrance to drainage systems and sewers. Other than to stop blockages, maintenance of catch basins is also important in order to prevent pollutants from entering sewers. This makes Catch basin cleaning a crucial and regular practice as pollutants that are allowed into sewers as a result of neglect are inevitably discharged into streams, waterways and lakes. Moreover, inadequate maintenance of catch basins causes accumulation of water in parking ways and along streets.

We provide high-quality cleaning and maintenance services to anxious and annoyed customers in the Lower Mainlands of Canada. Our dedicated team of professional servicemen have years of experience in the service-based industry and are committed to providing faster and comprehensive cleaning of underground pipes, sewers and drainage systems. Fitted with all the necessary equipment needed for catch basin cleaning, our multipurpose trucks specialize in catch basin cleaning. We use an innovative technique that combines heated and pressurized water that is delivered through catch basin pipes at supersonic speed. This process effectively eliminates blockages even in the most unreachable areas of pipes such as bends and turns. Our multipurpose trucks are also mounted with industrially approved high-powered strength vacuums that cleanup catch basins effectively and efficiently.

How frequently should Catch Basins Be Cleaned?

How frequently catch basins should be cleaned varies from area to area. Typically, catch basins should be cleaned once every year to ensure that they are at their best. However, if you reside in an area that has higher levels of pollution, you should ensure that cleaning is done on a more frequent basis. This is because polluted cities have higher discharge of trash, waste and debris all of which can easily find their way into sewers and drainage pipes. It is therefore necessary to remove sediments and trash accumulated in sumps with our catch basin cleaning service.

Some ways to ensure clean catch basins

Catch cleaning services may only be required once a year if these preventive measures are followed religiously:

  1. When clearing sidewalks or driveways, dispose of debris and waste material properly using trash receptacles rather than sweeping it down gutters and catch basins.
  2. Remove debris and leaves immediately whenever you see such waste material blocking catch basins around your business or house
  3. Try to keep catch basins open during winters as snow mostly blocks them.

Tips on Septic Tank Cleaning

Leave a reply

In some rural areas, septic tanks are used in the absence of large sewage facilities or sewer connections. But part of having a system like this comes also with the responsibility of septic tank cleaning. It would need maintenance in order for it to work properly. Septic cleaning isn’t such a difficult task. For most part it would only require minimal efforts and discipline on the owners side. To give some insights and tips on how to do septic tank leaning, tips are listed below.

  • Avoid making the drainfield soggy by the rainwater. If the drainfield becomes soggy it would be harder to neutralize and absorb liquid waste. Plan how you will divert rainwater from sogging the drainfield.
  • Refrain from disposing items into the toilet. These solid waste materials might be too bulky and clog the pipes in the septic tank. Likewise it would fill up the tank faster than it is capable of.
  • Do not use too much heavy cleaners. These cleaners would kill bacteria in the tank that would prevent wastes to be decomposed.
  • Don’t pour down grease in the drain. Grease that is poured from the drain will clog the drainfield thus making it hard for the soil to absorb waste water. If this problem occurs, a new drainfield might be needed.
  • Hazardous chemicals should be avoided. Paint thinner, gasoline, varnish should be disposed properly because these might contaminate the groundwater and ruin the whole septic system.
  • Regular maintenance should be performed. The solids accumulated in the tank should later on be pumped out. It is advisable for a family of four members who uses a 1,000-gallon tank to have it pumped after three to five years of usage. While it is also warned to never open the tank without the help or without the expertise of a professional. The gases and bacteria from the septic tank are dangerous.

Septic Tanks and Field Cleaning

Leave a reply

Maintaining septic tanks and field cleaning is important in order to prevent septic systems failure. Signs of septic tank failure may be recognized by these signs.

  • There is a noticeable wet area that surfaces on the drainfield. This problem is caused by solid particles that clog the drainfield. Sometimes it can also be caused by tree roots that seep underground and which makes it hard for waste water to disperse through the drainfield.
  • The toilet runs slow. In worst scenarios, this could be because the floor is already flooded with wastes and sewage. This might be because of a full septic tank or there is failure in the drainfield.
  • Bad odors can be smelled from the house especially from the toilet, from the septic tanks or the drainfield. If the septic system is working properly, there shouldn’t be any bad odors. If there is odor it might be a sign that the system is near being faulty.

With these signs it is important to stress why maintaining septic tanks and field cleaning is necessary. These tips below will help maintain a functional septic tank system.

  • The septic tank and the drainfield should never be overloaded. To do so, households should decrease water usage. This can be done by reduce water level when doing the laundry or reduce the water that’s needed to flush the toilet.
  • Do not dispose garbage in the toilet. Remember, it is not a garbage can. Do not flush tissues, napkins, diapers, tampons, and other clutter in the toilet. This will result to clogging of the septic pipes.
  • Trees should be away from the septic system. Trees should be at 100 feet away in proximity from the septic system. Roots might be cause of a problem in the future.
  • Avoid overusing heavy cleaners. These will kill bacteria in the septic tank so it would be harder to break down solid wastes.

Hydro Jetting & Hydro Flushing (same thing)

Leave a reply

One of the reasons why aging septic tanks age faster is because of debris and drain clogs that have not been removed by cleaning services like snaking or electric cable machines. The same clogs are causing back ups in your sinks. Hydro jetting is one way to clean these remaining bulks of debris in the drains to flush it out of the septic tank system.

What is hydro jetting?

Hydro jetting is one way to keep that aging septic tank working for few more years. It helps maintain your aging septic tank by removing the debris and other clogs that your drain has accumulated over time. Hydro jetting is one of the most effective ways of maintaining an aging septic tank as it can remove accumulated dirt that cannot be done by other septic tank services like snaking. Highly trained individuals facilitate hydro jetting, as this service requires heavy equipments for pressure.

How does it work?

Hydro jetting works by exerting pressure at 1600 to 4000 pounds per minute on your drains to remove the clogs and other debris that cannot be removed by simply snaking it or by other electric cable machines.

Hydro jetting tools are inserted in the pipes of your drains. Through the heavy pressure, the tool moves forward and removes all sands, grease and other clogs in the pipes. There are two pressures that work here – one that fires forward and another firing backwards. The latter plays heavier role, as it is not only responsible for the tool’s forward movement, but also in breaking the clogs and debris at the walls of the drainpipes.

Clogs are not the only foreign materials that can be removed through hydro jetting. When used in a residential setting, the strong pressure of the tool removes as well the tree roots that have crossed its boundaries toward your drainpipes.

There are drainpipes problems that cannot just removed by simple snaking or using electric machine. If your pipe has not been cleaned for years and you have been bothered by back ups whenever you are using the sinks, you might need to hydro jet your drains to remove those clogs that it accumulated through the years.
