Which Technique Is Best For Potholing?

During hydro excavation, water is pumped at high pressure through a hose to create an opening in the ground. The water then flows out of the hole as it fills with soil or rubble. This technique allows workers to create a circular opening that widens while they are inside, giving them access to areas they would not otherwise be able to reach safely with other methods or equipment. In the following post, we'll explore the benefits of hydro excavation and why it is the best technique for potholing.

Safety

Hydro excavation is a safer technique to use when digging underground. Since you're not using a backhoe, hydro excavation doesn't cause damage to underground utilities like pipes and cables. This means that you won't have any unexpected surprises when it comes time for construction workers to start putting in their foundations.
 
You'll also be able to save money on safety equipment because speedier and more thorough potholing can be accomplished with less risk of injury or death on the job site.

Cost-effective

It can be used in all weather conditions

Hydro excavation can be used in all weather conditions as it uses water to support the excavation, which means that there are no issues with frost or snow. Hydro excavation is also faster than traditional methods because of its hydraulic thrust and the fact that it does not require heavy machinery to operate.

Conclusion

Hydro excavation is the best technique for potholing. Not only is it safer and cheaper than traditional methods, but hydro excavation allows you to get to the root of your problem quickly.
 
It's also more accurate than other techniques like drilling because it doesn't rely on guesswork or assumptions about what lies beneath your property.
