Hydro Excavation

Hydro Excavation

Hydro excavation is a non-invasive, environmentally friendly method of excavation that uses high-pressure water and a powerful vacuum system to safely dig and expose underground utilities, pipelines, and other buried assets. This technique allows for faster, cleaner, and more efficient work in tight spaces.

Our hydro excavation services are perfect for projects that require precision, minimal disruption, and a focus on safety.

How Hydro Excavation Works:

We use high-pressure water to break up soil, which allows us to safely expose utilities and underground structures without the need for traditional digging methods. Once the soil is loosened, a powerful vacuum system removes the debris, leaving a clean, dry hole.

This method allows for precise digging, even in sensitive or congested areas, minimizing the risk of damaging existing utilities or infrastructure.

Hydro Excavation Applications:

  • Utility Installation & Repair: Ideal for safely uncovering utilities in emergency situations, such as utility line repairs or issues with underground systems.
  • Trenching for Pipelines: Safe and accurate trenching for installing pipelines, without the risks of traditional excavation methods.
  • Slot Trenching: We can dig narrow trenches for projects that require minimal disruption to the surrounding area, such as for installing conduits or fiber optics.
  • Potholing & Utility Location: Accurately expose and identify the location of utilities before other construction activities begin, helping to prevent accidental damage during later work.

Had 3/4+ size rock delivered. 1 truck load, great price, paid over the phone. I called & 2 hrs same day they delivered. Quick service! Perfect size rock, it is packing well in the rectangled area I dug out for under an RV shelter where I will live full time in my 5th. Already looking great with plenty more rock to finish, might be extra for small path & outside my trailer door.

I have an off-grid property outside of Bonners Ferry and have used KG&T for a number of projects. The most recent was to bury two cisterns and run 700 feet of water line to gravity feed water to the home I am building. I couldn’t believe how much they accomplished in two days of work. They were knowledgeable, courteous, and very efficient. I highly recommend them.
