Comprehensive hydro-vac and industrial cleaning services delivered with precision, safety, and efficiency.

Hydro-Vac Excavation

Hydro-Vac Excavation

Hydro-excavation trucks represent the cutting edge of non-destructive digging technology, using pressurized water and powerful vacuum suction to deliver precise, controlled excavation that protects underground utilities and infrastructure. Equipped with heated water systems for frozen ground conditions, hydro-vac excavation has become an essential solution for modern projects, reflecting the industry’s shift toward safer, more accurate, and more efficient methods.

Hydro-vac Services:

  • Utility Daylighting (Potholing): Safely exposing pipes or cables to identify their exact location.
  • Trenching: Creating narrow, precise trenches for installing new lines or cables.
  • Piling Holes: Digging clean holes for utility poles, foundations, and pilings.
  • Debris Removal & Cleaning: Cleaning out storm drains, manholes, or removing debris from hard-to-reach areas.
  • Confined Space Excavation: Using long, flexible hoses to reach areas where trucks can-not fit.

Industrial Vacuuming

Industrial Vacuuming

Large-scale facilities require vacuum services to manage complex waste streams and maintain pro-duction efficiency.

Industrial Vacuuming Services

  • Process Waste Management: Our crews can remove grease, sludge, and byproducts from sumps, pits, and interceptors.
  • Plant Decontamination: Cleaning industrial equipment and pipelines to comply with EPA and safety standards.
  • Remote Digging: Accessing hard-to-reach interior areas by operating hoses far away from the truck.
  • Spill Cleanup: Cleanup of liquid, sludge, and dry material that has spilled or overflowed.
     

Commercial Pressure Washing

Commercial Pressure Washing

Industrial hot water pressure washing is a highly effective cleaning method that uses heat, detergents, and high pressure to remove mildew, grime, and built-up contaminants from a variety of surfaces.

Commercial Pressure Washing Services:

  • High-Pressure Cleaning: Cleaning floors, walls, structures, and machinery with pressurized water and steam to wash the dirt and grime away. The hot high-pressure water penetrates deep into the corners to clean grease, stains, and dirty buildup, restoring the workplace to best condition as possible.
  • Tank Cleaning: Washing out tanks require confined space entry procedures that require special equipment and training. Certified entry teams will evaluate, plan, and implement the safest and most efficient way to clean the area at your facility or jobsite location.
  • Industrial Cleaning: Regularly cleaning heavy-duty equipment removes damaging oil and dirt. Regular cleaning can expose potential problem areas with your equipment, preventing expensive failures, and maximizing productivity.
  • Drill Rig Cleaning: Pressure washing rig, pits, shakers, mats, and any other equipment on the pad.

Municipal Services

Municipal Services

Municipal infrastructure requires dependable maintenance to keep essential systems operating safely and efficiently. Our hydro excavation and vacuum truck services help municipalities maintain sewer systems, stormwater infrastructure, and public utilities while minimizing disruption to residents and protecting underground assets.

  • Sewer & Drain Maintenance: Our combination jetter-vac units remove grease, roots, sediment, and other blockages from sanitary and storm sewer lines, restoring proper flow and helping prevent costly backups and overflows.
  • Catch Basin & Manhole Cleaning: We clean catch basins and manholes by removing accumulated grit, leaves, debris, and other materials that restrict drainage. Routine maintenance helps reduce localized flooding and keeps stormwater systems performing during heavy rainfall.
  • Hydro Excavation (Daylighting): Using high-pressure water and powerful vacuum excavation, we safely expose underground gas, water, sewer, and electrical utilities without the risk of damaging existing infrastructure. Hydro excavation is the preferred method for utility verification, repairs, and new construction projects where precision is critical.
  • Lift Station & Treatment Plant Maintenance: Our team provides sludge, grit, and wastewater removal services for municipal lift stations and treatment facilities. Regular cleaning and maintenance improve operational efficiency, reduce downtime, and help facilities remain compliant with environmental and regulatory standards.

Accident Response

Accident Response

When emergencies happen, rapid response is critical to protecting public safety, minimizing downtime, and restoring normal operations. Our emergency vacuum truck services are available 24/7, providing fast, reliable support for municipalities, contractors, and industrial facilities during unexpected events.

  • 24/7 Emergency Response: Our experienced crews are on call around the clock and can typically mobilize within one hour of receiving an emergency request, ensuring immediate assistance when every minute matters.
  • Floodwater & Infrastructure Recovery: We quickly remove floodwater, mud, sediment, and storm debris from roads, facilities, and public infrastructure to help restore safe access and reduce the impact of severe weather events.
  • Debris & Spill Cleanup: Our high-capacity vacuum trucks efficiently remove loose debris, industrial materials, and non-hazardous spills from roadways, construction sites, and industrial facilities, helping return operations to normal as quickly as possible.
  • Cargo Recovery: We provide specialized cleanup services for overturned or damaged commercial vehicles by vacuuming loose cargo such as plastic pellets, pelletized lime, and other bulk materials. Our powerful vacuum systems allow for efficient recovery while minimizing environmental impact and reducing roadway closures.
