DIGS Hydrovac supports remote hose and limited access excavation projects across Alberta. If your site involves tight access or indoor excavation requirements, our team can help plan a safe and effective approach.

Remote Hose and Limited Access Excavation

DIGS Hydrovac provides remote hose excavation services for projects where direct truck access is not possible or where excavation must be completed inside buildings, tight access areas, or restricted sites. Our remote hose capability allows hydrovac excavation to be performed at a distance from the truck while maintaining safe and controlled soil removal.

This approach is valuable on sites with limited entry points, indoor work areas, fenced compounds, and congested urban environments..

  • Some projects require excavation within buildings, facilities, or partially enclosed structures. Remote hose setups allow vacuum and water lines to be extended into these areas so excavation can be completed safely.

    This method is commonly used for interior utility work, drain repairs, sump installations, and infrastructure upgrades within buildings.

  • Urban construction sites and developed properties often have limited space for large equipment. Remote hose excavation allows the hydrovac truck to remain in an accessible location while excavation is completed at a distance.

    This supports work in backyards, courtyards, mechanical yards, and narrow access points where positioning a truck directly beside the dig area is not practical.

  • Industrial facilities often require excavation near structures, equipment, and active operations. Remote hose capability allows crews to work within site constraints while minimizing disruption.

    This supports maintenance, repairs, and upgrades in complex environments.

  • Remote hose excavation allows hydrovac services to be used in areas where traditional excavation equipment cannot reach. This provides flexibility for challenging sites while maintaining the safety benefits of non destructive excavation.

    It also helps reduce surface disruption by limiting where heavy equipment must travel or be positioned.
