Hydro excavation is a procedure that uses high-pressure water instead of mechanical tools to excavate and remove soil quickly. This turns the soil into a muddy slurry that experts use an industrial-strength vacuum to remove. It is an extremely useful procedure to create precise trenches for landscaping and installation purposes.

Hydro excavation is a digging method that uses a combination of water and vacuuming to remove debris. Traditional techniques use manual methods, but these run the risk of damaging the earth and employees. Hydro excavation uses trucks and hoses to blast water and then later vacuum the slurry away.

Most blockages do not require a hydro jet drain cleaner. A handyman or plumbing company with a drain snake or electrical cable cleaner can handle most clogs. Grease blockages are especially difficult to remove, however. Grease builds up overtime in drainage pipes and eventually turns into a viscous sludge that never completely leaves your plumbing. These clogs always return because they must be completely removed and average drain snakes are not capable of this level of cleaning. It will only be a matter of time before the blockage builds back up and clogs your pipes again.
