Why Erie pipeline work needs a non-destructive method
Erie is a dense city with busy utility corridors. Therefore, a pipeline rarely runs alone. Water, sewer, electric and communication lines sit beside it.
However, a backhoe cannot work safely in that space. Hydro excavation can.
How our crews work
First, we review the markings and the scope with your foreman. Next, we excavate with pressurized water and vacuum. Finally, we leave a clean, open hole for your crew.
Because spoils go into the truck, the road stays clear. In addition, smaller holes reduce paving repairs.
Lake-effect winters
Erie winters bring heavy snow and hard frost. Meanwhile, gas work often peaks in cold weather. Our trucks carry heated water, so frozen ground does not delay the dig.
Service area
We work in Erie, Millcreek, Harborcreek, North East, Fairview, Girard and Lake City. Additionally, we support pipeline projects across Northern Pennsylvania.
