Melbourne Hydro & Vacuum Excavations

What is Hydro Excavation?

Hydro excavation is a two-step process:

  1. High-pressure water breaks up the soil.
  2. Vacuum suction removes the slurry into a debris tank.

This technique allows us to dig with precision, protecting underground services like water mains, electrical lines, gas pipes, and telecommunications infrastructure.

When to Use Hydro Excavation…

  • Utility Service Exposure
  • Trenching & Potholing
  • Crossover Installations
  • Drainage & Pipe Access
  • Tight Access or High-Risk Areas
