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 excavating an area.
Hydro-excavation dramatically increases our excavating capabilities compared to traditional excavation techniques. For example, a recent project 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
Hydro-Blasting
Degen Excavating offers hydro-blasting which uses a high pressure water stream ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 psi that allows us to safely cut through some of the toughest debris.

- May be utilized in areas not deemed safe for conventional methods (i.e. high LEL’s)
