VACUUM EXCAVATION

Our customer-oriented, professional crews will help locate underground utilities using state-of-the-art Hydro Excavation equipment, designed to be less invasive and to cause less damage to buried cables, fiber-optic lines or utility piping.  

WHAT IS HYDRO EXCAVATION?

Hydro excavation is a process that utilizes water pressure and suction to excavate soil. This process reduces digging by hand for exposing buried utilities, which can be time consuming and dangerous.  In turn, this reduces cost, limits damage to existing utility lines, and can reduce dangerous situations. Utility companies across the United States are implementing Hydro Excavation for uncovering underground utilities.  In addition, it can be used for slot-trenching, man-hole clean-outs, pole holes, precision excavation, removal of water from flooded basements, helping to repair water-main breaks, and a wide variety of other applications.

When a second crew showed up, there weren’t two crews working: instead they merged together as ONE.

J&R has great leaders on your crews and a team-like atmosphere I really don’t see much of anymore. I can see the reflection of how you and Robin treat your workers flows over to how they treat each other and us, the clients. Thanks again for the help with this project!
