Hydro Excavation Cambridge

We review locate sheets and markings, confirm validity and limits, notify or coordinate with utility owners, establish traffic and pedestrian controls, and inspect the proposed excavation for conflicts. Slurry is contained in the debris tank, classified where required, and taken to an approved receiving location. Test-hole measurements, photographs, survey, backfill, compaction, and surface restoration follow.

The governing document set is O. Reg. 213/91 sections governing utility locating and excavation, Ontario One Call requirements, utility-owner procedures, municipal road-cut and restoration standards, applicable OPSS requirements, and project soil-management criteria. Backfill type, lift thickness, compaction, flowable fill, pavement restoration, and test-hole records follow the road authority, utility owner, geotechnical specification, and project drawing.

The price responds to number and size of holes, soil type, frost, depth, access, traffic control, water source, hose reach, slurry volume and disposal, contamination, backfill, pavement restoration, travel, and operating windows. Unmanaged slurry can enter sewers, spread contamination, or overload a receiving site. Sealed tanks, classification, approved disposal, and washout controls keep material contained.

The controlling schedule factors are locate availability, utility-owner coordination, permits, traffic windows, frost and soil conditions, water supply, disposal-site hours, excavation depth, survey response, backfill testing, and restoration requirements. Slurry is contained in the debris tank, classified where required, and taken to an approved receiving location. Test-hole measurements, photographs, survey, backfill, compaction, and surface restoration follow.

Yes. Hydrovac is suited to constrained operating sites. We establish equipment and hose zones, maintain emergency and delivery routes, control noise and spray, and restore each exposure promptly. Unmanaged slurry can enter sewers, spread contamination, or overload a receiving site. Sealed tanks, classification, approved disposal, and washout controls keep material contained.

We document locate information, excavation location and dimensions, utility type and depth, photographs, survey coordinates where requested, slurry destination, backfill material, compaction or flowable-fill records, and restored surface condition. Backfill type, lift thickness, compaction, flowable fill, pavement restoration, and test-hole records follow the road authority, utility owner, geotechnical specification, and project drawing.

Provide locate information, private utility records, proposed hole coordinates and dimensions, expected depths, utility owners, access and traffic limits, soil or contamination information, water availability, disposal requirements, and restoration details. Slurry is contained in the debris tank, classified where required, and taken to an approved receiving location. Test-hole measurements, photographs, survey, backfill, compaction, and surface restoration follow.

Yes if pressure, nozzle distance, temperature, angle, or exposure is unsuitable for the service condition. The method reduces contact risk but still requires trained operators, utility information, controlled pressure, and observation.

Recovered water and soil remain contained in the debris tank and are transported to an accepted facility or managed under the approved project plan. Characterization may be required where contamination is possible.
