Hydrovac & Volumetric Mixer Services

You get a safer, more precise way to excavate and backfill. Our hydrovac services protect buried utilities from damage, while our stone slingers place materials exactly where you need them. This is the ideal solution for digging in congested areas and keeping your schedule-sensitive projects on track.

A Safer and Faster Way to Work

Traditional mechanical digging with a backhoe or excavator carries a high risk of striking a buried utility line. A single strike can cause dangerous outages, lead to expensive repairs, and bring your entire project to a halt for days or weeks. Our hydrovac and volumetric mixer services solve this problem. We use non-destructive hydro-excavation to safely work around sensitive infrastructure. We then use stone slingers for controlled and efficient backfilling. Combining these services reduces risk, saves time, and protects your budget.

Your Hydrovac & Volumetric Mixer Services

We provide specialized equipment with certified operators to support your construction, utility, or industrial projects.

Hydrovac Excavation

You get a non-destructive way to dig. Our trucks use pressurized water to loosen soil and a powerful vacuum to remove it, which is perfect for safely exposing buried lines (daylighting), digging pole holes, and clearing debris in tight spaces.

Volumetric Mixer Services

Mix concrete exactly where and when you need it. Our volumetric mixers combine raw materials on-site, delivering fresh, high-quality concrete in precise quantities. Adjust mix designs in real time, reduce waste, and keep your project moving efficiently—no delays, no excess, just the right mix every time.

Equipment with Certified Operator

You can book our hydrovac or stone slinger trucks with a fully trained and certified operator for your specific project needs

Environmental Compliance

You can be confident our work meets regulatory standards. Our operations are EASR (Environmental Activity and Sector Registry) Approved and ECA (Environmental Compliance Approval) Certified.

Our Safe and Efficient Process

Your service call follows a clear process focused on safety and achieving your specific goal.

Site Assessment and Planning

We start by understanding your objective, whether it’s daylighting a utility, digging a trench, or placing bedding material. We review all site information and locate tickets to create a safe work plan.

Truck Setup and Safety Check

Our operator arrives on-site and positions the truck for optimal reach and stability. They secure the work area and perform all necessary safety checks before beginning.

Excavation or Material Placement

The operator performs the work, carefully monitoring the process to ensure precision and safety. For hydrovac work, this means controlling water pressure; for slinger work, it means controlling the flow and placement of material.

Site Cleanup and Demobilization

Once the job is complete, we clean up the work area. For hydrovac jobs, we can haul away the debris. We then safely demobilize the equipment, leaving your site clean and ready for the next stage.

Answering Your Questions

What is "daylighting"?

Daylighting is the process of safely exposing buried utilities with a hydrovac to visually confirm their exact depth and location. This eliminates guesswork and is the safest way to prevent a utility strike.

When should I use hydrovac instead of a backhoe? Hydrovac is preferred when you are digging near any known utilities, in areas with poorly documented infrastructure, or in tight spaces where a backhoe won’t fit. It’s also effective for digging in frozen ground during the winter.

Our stone slingers can place a variety of materials, including different grades of gravel and aggregates, sand, and topsoil.

When you use HDP for a larger construction project, our in-house hydrovac services prevent delays. We control the schedule, so you aren’t left waiting for a third-party subcontractor to show up.

A Key Part of Our Construction Projects

While we offer hydrovac and volumetric mixer services on a standalone basis, their greatest value comes when they are part of a larger HDP construction project. Because we own and schedule our own equipment, you never have to wait for a third-party hydrovac crew to arrive. This direct control over the schedule is one of the main ways we keep your projects on time and on budget.
