Hydro Excavation

Hydro excavation uses high-pressure water and a high-CFM vacuum to safely turn soil into a slurry for easy removal. It’s a non-destructive method ideal for exposing utility lines, trenching, potholing, and working in frozen or compacted ground. CIT Sewer Solutions provides expert hydro excavation services across Iowa, even in hard-to-reach or limited-access areas up to 200 feet from the truck.

Hydro Excavation

Hydro excavation is the process of excavation using pressurized water and high cfm vacuum. This turns the soil into a slurry, allowing it to be easily vacuumed and transferred to a debris tank. Hydro excavation creates an easier solution for safely uncovering existing utility lines, installing new utility lines, potholing, trenching, debris removal, and more. The process is non-destructive and much more effective than conventional methods when experts face frozen or challenging soil conditions. With the ability to dig at a distance of up to 200 feet from the hydro vacuum excavation truck, This system is capable of working in areas in which access is limited.

How CIT Uses Hydro Excavation

CIT Sewer Solutions can use hydro excavation for several different applications.

1. Daylighting (Exposing Utilities)

Daylighting is the process of exposing existing underground utilities.

2. Trenching

When it comes to installing new utility lines, hydro excavation is perfect for soil trenching in hard to reach or sensitive areas.

3. Piling Hole Excavation

Hydro excavation can be used to dig holes of various diameters and depths to make way for all types of pilings.

4. Cold Weather Digging

Hydro excavation is the perfect solution when it comes to trenching or digging through frozen soil. Using heated pressurized water, hydro excavation can clear out debris in any condition.

Benefits Of Hydro Excavation

  • Low Risk
    Rather than using large mechanical tools, which could possibly damage utilities, hydro excavation can uncover electrical and sewer lines with minimal risk of damage.
  • Safe
    Because of its accuracy, there’s a minimal risk of accidents or work injuries.
  • Small Footprint
    Our hydro excavation equipment is compact can be positioned at a distance, creating a less congested or trafficked work area.
