With our state of the art unit, we can jet-rod and clean your underground
piping systems. We also offer video inspection of utility lines 2” and larger!
Save Time:
Our vaccon units have several capabilities which can help you and your
subcontractors without impacting your ongoing work load or schedule.
Hydro-Excavating
Many of our customers utilize our trucks for hydo-excavating to test pit for
existing utilities. Hydro-excavating utilizes high pressure water, along with a
vacuum, to remove overburden and expose existing utilities while
eliminating the concern of damaging or breaking the lines. This is a low
risk, minimal disturbance means of test pitting.
Clean Existing and New Lines
We have the ability to clean out existing and new storm and sewer lines and
structures, both before and upon completing of your project, as the need
arises. Several examples are as follows:
- Remove all of the sediment and debris that collects in your storm
drain and sewer lines through poor erosion control,
- Remove unwanted materials from underground structures used as
temporary sediment traps and/or,
- Clean sandfilters prior to media installation.
- All the material extracted from these facilities can be disposed of off
site to help maintain a cleaner job site while helping to protect the
environment.

Sand Filters and Oil/Grit Separators
Sand filters have proven effective in removing several common pollutants
from storm water runoff, allowing them to be discharged safely through an
underdrain system either to a storm drainage system or directly to surface
waters. These systems take up little space and can be used on any site
including those with steep slopes and in retrofit situations.
Sand filters are able to achieve high removal efficiencies for sediment,
biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and fecal coliform bacteria. Total metal
removal, however, is moderate, and nutrient removal is often low.
The oil/grit separator is essentially a rectilinear concrete chamber
connected to the storm drain system. Inside runoff passes through three
cells modified to separate out grit, oil, and sediment before it passes to a
storm drain pipe. These systems are particularly effective for sites expected
to experience a great deal of petroleum residues such as roads, loading
areas, gas stations, and any other location with a heavy amount of motor
vehicle traffic.


Underground Detention Systems
Underground stormwater detention systems are an effective way to control
the flow of stormwater. Detention systems work as an integral part of the
storm sewer system to provide a temporary storage area for excess
stormwater. In the instance where excess stormwater is present, a
detention system allows the runoff to be stored and discharged over time.
Installation is often in less accessed areas allowing for maximize property
usage and lower development costs. Underground detention systems:
- Are designed to meet local requirements,
- Maximize property usage,
- Lower development costs, and
- Provide a safe, nuisance-free environment.
