Health and Safety

Hydrovac excavation involves high pressure systems, heavy equipment, traffic exposure, and work near buried utilities. These conditions require structured job planning and hazard awareness.

DIGS Hydrovac approaches each project with:

  • Pre job hazard assessments

  • Clear site communication

  • Traffic and work zone awareness

  • Utility strike prevention planning

  • Equipment inspection and maintenance

Our crews work in coordination with site supervisors and other trades to ensure excavation activities align with overall site safety requirements.

Our objective is to complete work safely, efficiently, and without incident.

Environmental Responsibility

Hydrovac excavation is a controlled method that minimizes unnecessary ground disturbance and reduces the risk of damaging underground infrastructure. Smaller, targeted excavations limit surface disruption and help protect surrounding soil and vegetation.

DIGS Hydrovac follows responsible material handling and disposal practices. Slurry removal and waste management are conducted in accordance with applicable environmental requirements and site specific guidelines.

We remain focused on protecting the environment while supporting construction, municipal, and energy projects.
