Hydro-Excavation Services in Michigan & Surrounding States

Safely expose underground utilities with precision hydro-excavation. Our non-destructive methods prevent damage to gas lines, fiber optics, and other buried infrastructure while ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Unlike traditional digging methods, hydro-excavation allows for greater accuracy and control, reducing the risk of costly repairs and service interruptions. Whether you need to locate utilities for a new installation or verify existing lines before excavation, our team ensures a safe, efficient, and damage-free process.

Frozen ground is no obstacle for hydro-excavation. Our heated water technology enables year-round digging, ensuring projects stay on schedule even in harsh winter conditions. Traditional digging methods struggle in subzero temperatures, where frozen soil can damage equipment and slow down progress. With hydro-excavation, we can efficiently break through frozen ground without compromising safety or efficiency, making it the ideal solution for winter utility work, repairs, and emergency excavation needs.

After excavation, proper backfilling and restoration are essential to maintaining site integrity and preventing soil erosion. Our team ensures that excavated areas are filled with the appropriate materials and compacted properly to prevent settling or instability. Using precision placement methods, we restore work sites with minimal disruption, ensuring that the ground remains stable and ready for future use. Whether it's a utility trench, foundation, or emergency repair site, our backfill and restoration services provide long-term stability and support.

Need excavation in hard-to-reach or confined spaces? Our specialized equipment allows for safe and efficient material removal in remote job sites, warehouses, or indoor projects. Unlike traditional excavation methods, hydro-excavation uses pressurized water and vacuum technology to minimize disruption and prevent damage to surrounding structures. This is especially beneficial in industrial facilities, commercial buildings, or areas with restricted access, where safety and precision are top priorities.

Hydro-excavation provides a safe, efficient, and precise solution for substation projects, reducing the risk of damaging sensitive electrical components while maintaining site stability. Given the complexity of electrical substations, traditional digging methods can pose safety risks and disrupt critical infrastructure. Our hydro-excavation techniques allow for controlled soil removal, ensuring minimal disruption while maintaining structural integrity. This method is particularly useful in high-voltage areas where precision is essential for both worker safety and project success.

Our hydro-excavation trenching services create clean, precise trenches for utility installations and repairs, minimizing ground disturbance and protecting existing infrastructure. Whether installing new utility lines, upgrading existing systems, or performing repairs, hydro-excavation is the safest way to create trenches without damaging nearby pipes, cables, or foundations. Our process ensures that trenches are dug to the exact specifications needed, reducing unnecessary excavation and keeping work sites efficient and environmentally friendly.

Using hydro-excavation for utility pole installations reduces the risk of damaging underground utilities while allowing for accurate, controlled digging in even the most challenging locations. Unlike augers or mechanical excavators, hydro-excavation can safely remove soil in areas with dense underground infrastructure, reducing the chances of striking gas, water, or electrical lines. Additionally, our process allows for excavation in tight or remote spaces, ensuring that utility poles can be installed with minimal impact to the surrounding environment.

Efficiently remove and dispose of drilling fluids, mud, and debris from boreholes and job sites. Our vacuum excavation services keep work areas clean and compliant with environmental regulations. Drilling operations often create excess mud and slurry that can clog equipment, contaminate worksites, and create hazardous conditions. By using hydro-excavation, we provide a fast, safe, and environmentally responsible solution for removing drill-mud, ensuring a cleaner and more productive worksite.

Custom Hydrovac specializes in deep, precise, and safe excavation for projects that require significant soil removal without compromising surrounding infrastructure. Using advanced hydro-excavation techniques, we’re able to dig to greater depths with controlled accuracy, making it ideal for foundations, vaults, deep utility installations, and industrial projects.
