It relies on operating a hydrovac excavations truck, equipped with all the necessary technology to loose even the most difficult types of soil, dig very precisely using a pressurized stream of water and evacuate the debris using a powerful vacuum.

There are a few best practices to know when you hire a hydrovac excavation company.

When interviewing a contractor, make sure to ask  whether they carry license and insurance. Also, ask for their portfolio and take a look at past projects. Make sure you choose a contractor that is well versed and experienced in hydrovac digging projects, because this way you can rest assured that they know what they are doing and operate according to safety policies when handling water pressure and the entire procedure.
