Hydrovac
Hydrovac Services in Lac la Biche and Conklin, AB
Providing services that are safe & precise.
When working around high voltage work and utility lines, our hydrovac services in Slave Lake, Wabasca, Lac La Biche, Conklin, Cold Lake, and Bonnyville ensure safe and precise excavation. Additionally, it’s non-destructive because it uses high-pressure water and an industrial-sized vacuum hose to expose pipelines and other valuable components underground. The jets can break up soil and create a slurry, which is then promptly suctioned into the hydrovac truck’s debris tank.
We can excavate in all types of soil and weather conditions. Our hydrovac trucks can handle frozen ground in winter, rocky terrain, and dense clay that challenge traditional excavation methods.
Hydrovac is used in place of backhoes or excavators to reduce the risk of underground damage. Wrecking any underground lines is costly, so Hydrovac is the safest option. Furthermore, after the water and ground mixture is vacuumed, it can be disposed of onsite or at another disposal facility. Along with daylighting (also meaning line exposure), our hydrovac services include:
- Utility line exposure
- Natural Gas line excavation
- Ground Sloping
- Pipeline Trenching
- Fibre Optic Line Exposure and other high-voltage lines
- Plant turnaround operations
Our hydrovac services are available in Lac La Biche, Slave Lake, Conklin, Fort McMurray, Cold Lake, Bonnyville, and Wabasca.
