Hydro Excavation is the process of removing or moving soil with pressurized water.
Hydro Excavation is the process of removing or moving soil with pressurized water. An air conveyance or vacuum is then used to transfer the soil or debris to a debris tank. This allows for a non-destructive and more accurate way to excavate soil and locate underground utilities.
The cold weather in Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota often causes the soil to be frozen. This makes it harder to excavate using traditional methods. As a result, using hydro excavation with heated water was a good way to get the job done.
