While a leaky toilet or broken faucet is easy to identify and fix, plumbing problems can persist further in your water and sewage system.

Dillon can easily manage pipe and utility installation/repair. If requiring hydro excavation in Peoria IL, call J.C. Dillon today.

What is Hydro Excavation?

Hydro excavation is an easier method for removing dirt and installing or accessing underground pipes and utilities. Using a specialized hydro excavation truck, J.C. Dillon uses pressurized water to cut through soil and create a “dirt slurry.” Next, vacuums remove this dirt slurry, allowing contractors to access the area where pipes are or will be. Finally, after plumbing and utility installation/repair is complete, the mud slurry is released back over now-in-place pipes.

What Are Hydro Excavation’s Benefits?

Utility contractors throughout the United States rely more and more on hydro excavation over other traditional excavation techniques. Hydro excavation in Peoria IL ensures quicker service, is less intrusive, is safer to implement, and allows contractors to be more precise in their digging.

  • Speed and Efficiency
    • Manual digging can be an exhausting and time-consuming process. Conversely, hydro excavation is quick and easy to implement. Additionally, hydro excavation is more efficient than the work done via manual labor.
  • Less Intrusive
    • Digging trenches and underground utilities can sometimes cause disruptions for businesses or residents around a worksite. Depending on the location of utility lines, streets might need closing, and private property can get torn up. Thankfully, hydro excavation is significantly less intrusive. Minimal soil is moved through hydro excavation and done in a manner that doesn’t hold up traffic or ruin property.
  • Safe and Affordable
    • Standard excavation typically requires significant manpower and industrial digging equipment. Not only can labor and machinery required for excavation become costly, but manual digging can be more dangerous to workers. Instead, hydro excavation takes the labor and heavy machinery out of the equation, only requiring a few operators and minimal equipment.
