How it works

Simple process, reliable results.

1
Site assessment
We discuss your excavation requirements, utility locations, and any access constraints. We can work from your existing utility plans.
2
Mobilise to site
Our Hydrovac truck arrives ready to work. We carry our own water supply and slurry disposal capability.
3
Non-destructive excavation
High-pressure water breaks up soil while the industrial vacuum removes it simultaneously. Precise, controlled, and safe around existing services.
4
Site clean-up and disposal
Spoil is removed from site or stockpiled as required. We leave the site clean and documented.
Common questions

Hydrovac — FAQ

What is Hydrovac excavation?+
Hydrovac is a non-destructive digging method using high-pressure water to break up soil and an industrial vacuum to remove the slurry. Safer, faster, and more precise than mechanical excavation — especially around underground utilities.
Is Hydrovac safe around underground services?+
Yes — significantly safer than mechanical digging. Water pressure is controlled precisely with no risk of cutting damage from a mechanical bucket or blade.
Are you certified for civil work?+
Yes. We hold SiteSafe, Totika, Safe365, and ISN certifications — all required for civil and commercial project work in New Zealand.
