Why Hydrovac
The Safe Way to Dig Near Live Infrastructure
Mechanical excavation guesses. Hydrovac sees. By cutting soil with pressurized water and lifting the slurry with a powerful vacuum, we expose gas, hydro, fibre and water lines without the strikes, damage or restoration costs that sink a project schedule.
- Strike-free by designPressurized water never makes mechanical contact with a buried line.
- Minimal surface disruptionClean, contained excavations that mean far less for your crews to repair.
- Year-round capabilityHeated water cuts the frost line when frozen Ontario ground stops other crews.
What We Do
Full-Scope Hydro Excavation
One crew, one safety standard, every non-destructive digging need on your site — from utility daylighting to deep-frost trenching and remote-hose access.
Slot Trenching

How We Work
From Locate to Documentation
A disciplined sequence that keeps your site safe, your schedule intact and your inspectors satisfied.
01
Locate & Plan
We confirm Ontario One Call tickets, add private locates and review the dig plan with your supervisor.
02
Set Up Safe
Traffic control, hoarding and ground protection go in before a single hose is charged.
03
Excavate
Pressurized water cuts soil; the vac lifts slurry to the tank — utilities exposed, never touched.
04
Document & Demobilize
We vacuum out all spoil, leave the excavation clean and safe, and hand over photo documentation and confirmed depths.
