About this service
Why T&A
Hydro excavation is the water-based form of soft digging: pressurized water loosens soil while a vacuum removes spoil so crews can see utilities without striking them. It is especially effective in clay, compacted, or frozen ground common across Dutchess County and Fairfield County winters and shoulder seasons.
FAQ
How is hydro excavation different from vacuum excavation?
Hydro excavation is a type of vacuum excavation that uses water. Vacuum excavation can also use pressurized air. Both lift spoil with a vacuum truck.
Is hydro excavation safe near gas lines?
Yes. Soft digging is the industry-preferred way to expose gas lines. Many owners require it inside the tolerance zone.
Can hydro excavation support an HDD project?
Absolutely. Verifying utility depths with hydro excavation before directional drilling is how we keep bores on profile and off existing lines.
