Hydro-excavation

Excavation in restricted areas

Hydro-excavation uses the power of high-pressure water to perform precise excavation work, even in confined spaces. This technique allows for verifying the integrity of your underground infrastructure while optimizing its performance. Thanks to this non-destructive method, our specialized teams ensure safe and efficient interventions, reducing the risk of damage to existing networks. We provide a solution tailored to your needs, preserving the environment and minimizing disruptions on your site.

Possible applications of hydro-excavation include:

  • Locating and exposing underground pipes or cables (water, gas, electricity, telecommunications).

  • Creating narrow trenches for installing new networks.

  • Excavating around foundations or in densely populated urban areas.

  • Cleaning and clearing manholes or culverts.

  • Preparing sites for civil engineering or construction work.

The main advantages of hydro-excavation

Increased Precision

High-pressure water enables targeted excavation, ideal for congested areas or near sensitive infrastructure, unlike mechanical excavators that risk causing damage.

Enhanced Safety

As a non-destructive method, it significantly reduces the risk of damaging cables, pipes, or underground networks (water, gas, electricity, telecommunications).

Reduced Environmental Impact

Using water minimizes dust dispersion and emissions compared to mechanical methods, while allowing responsible debris management.

Efficiency in Confined Spaces

Perfect for urban areas or tight job sites where heavy equipment is difficult to maneuver.

Speed and Reduced Disruptions

Hydro-excavation speeds up work while limiting interruptions for residents and surrounding activities—a key advantage over more invasive methods.

Versatility

Suitable for multiple applications such as locating pipes, trenching, or clearing manholes, offering a flexible solution for various projects.
