Hydro Vac Services for Metro Atlanta

A large vacuum truck with 'VACALL' written on it is parked on a street, with workers in safety vests and helmets working nearby, some of whom are near a fire hydrant and orange traffic cones.

Why Hydro Vac Beats Mechanical Digging

A backhoe can slice through a gas line in seconds. That single strike shuts down your site, triggers fines, and puts crews at risk. Traditional digging near buried utilities is a gamble you don't need to take.

Hydro vac uses high-pressure water to break up soil. A powerful vacuum pulls the slurry into our truck. The result is a clean hole with zero contact on your pipes, cables, or conduits.

This method works in tight spots where heavy equipment can't reach. It leaves less mess, needs less backfill, and keeps your project on schedule. You get the access you need without the liability you don't.

Common Uses for Hydro Vac

Utility owners call us to expose gas, water, electric, fiber, and sewer lines before tie-ins or repairs. Engineers use our service to verify depth and position on design plans. Contractors bring us in to dig near active lines without risking a strike.

We handle work for cities, DOTs, telecom firms, power companies, and solar developers. Plant managers use hydro vac for valve access, pipe inspections, and equipment foundations.

Retention pond cleaning falls under this service too. We vacuum out silt, debris, and sediment to restore capacity. Spill cleanup follows the same process with proper waste handling.

Our Services

Hydro Vac

Non-destructive digging method that uses pressurized water and a vacuum to safely expose underground utilities and clear soil.
Daylighting

Safely exposing underground utilities or pipelines using hydro excavation so they can be inspected or worked on without damage.
Potholing

Precise digging of small test holes using hydro excavation to locate and verify the exact position of underground utilities.
Trenching

Creating narrow, precise trenches with hydro excavation to install or repair underground utilities with minimal ground disturbance.
Restoration

Restoration after hydrovac is the process of returning the work site to its original or intended condition once excavation is finished. This can include backfilling the hole, compacting the soil, replacing removed materials (like asphalt, concrete, or landscaping), and ensuring the area is safe, stable, and visually restored.

Pole & Piling Holes

Dig clean, accurate holes for utility poles, signposts, or structural pilings. Hydrovac prevents soil collapse and ensures precise depth and diameter.
