Hydro-Excavating
Degen Excavating offers hydro-excavation services. Hydro-excavation utilizes pressurized water to break-up soil and a vacuum tank to remove the debris. This process provides a non-destructive means to safely locating utilities and precisely excavate an area.
Hydro-excavation dramatically increases our excavating capabilities compared to traditional excavation techniques. For example, we recently utilized hydro-excavation to install 42” diameter caissons, 30’ deep in areas not accessible by conventional means.
Additional benefits of hydro-excavation include:
- Less site disturbance
- Less invasive to existing underground utilities
- Can be used to verify the material, invert, size and condition of utilities up to 20′ deep
- Save time and labor during construction by quickly exposing utilities with limited access
- Precise excavation without shoring
- Remote access can be completed from up to 200 feet away
