PROFESSIONAL HYDROVAC SERVICES IN THE EDMONTON AREA
Reduce damage to the landscape when installing a new sewer line or updating old utilities with hydrovac services in the Edmonton area from Canessco Services Inc. An excavation company would typically use equipment to dig, tearing up the landscaping. With hydro excavation, soil can be removed using pressurized water instead of traditional digging methods. This approach minimizes damage to surrounding areas, preserving existing utilities, plants, and landscaping. Our use of modern equipment enables us to access hard-to-reach areas, and we employ remote hoses to reach locations beyond the truck's reach. Following completion of the excavation, we ensure proper waste disposal at regulated dumping facilities.

What is Hydrovac Excavation?
Hydro excavation combines high-pressure water and an air vacuum to cut through and break up the soil while removing it from the excavation area. The vacuum pulls the material away, transferring it to a large holding tank, which creates the excavation process.
Hydrovac Excavation – Better than Traditional Methods
Hydrovac offers a range of benefits that you can’t get from conventional excavation services, such as:
-
Versatility: The cold weather in Edmonton often causes the soil to freeze, which means most excavations cannot be done. However, hydro excavation can use heated water to excavate the frozen ground.
-
Comprehensive: Hydrovac excavation is essentially an all-in-one process. Rather than needing to dig out dirt and move it somewhere else, hydro excavation uses high-pressure water to wash away the debris at the same time as the vacuum is sucking the sludge up.
-
Applications: Excavation is needed to install utilities, but hydro excavation can do much more. This process is perfect for line, sign and pole installation, location, remote excavation sites, and underground utility locations.
-
Safety: Compared to mechanical methods, hydro excavation causes much less damage and is much safer. Hydro excavation is a very accurate process that limits accidents and injuries for labourers and bystanders while avoiding damage to underground pipes, lines, and cables.
Lastly, hydrovac is a much more eco-friendly excavation option, so it is a great option for anyone who wants to reduce their carbon footprint.
Applications of Hydro Excavation
There are many situations where you might use a hydrovac truck. These include:
-
Daylighting: This is the process of unearthing land covered in sand, gravel, concrete, or even ice to expose underlying utilities to daylight.
-
Hole digging: Hydrovac trucks can also help pile holes and holes for posts of varying diameters and depths.
-
Trenching: Hydrovac trucks help dig pits and trenches of varying sizes to expose underlying utilities or install new utility lines.
-
Debris removal and tank cleanup: Hydrovac effectively removes material, wet or dry, from trenches, pits, or underground tanks.
-
Backfill restoration: Hydrovac trucks can finish an excavation project by filling the trench or pit with soil or restoring it to its normal form.
