The Safe Alternative to Traditional Excavation

Mining and construction crews often dig in areas where there are underground utilities such as mains power, optic fibre, sewerage and telecommunication lines. Performing these tasks with traditional excavating methods runs the risk of damaging or dislodging the lines, leading to costly repairs or disruptions in service.


At Sav’s Plumbing, we offer hydro excavation services that are ideal for diverse applications including slot trenching, pot hole excavation and exposing utilities. We’re based in Mount Isa and we are prepared to travel to remote jobsites, almost anywhere!

Hydro excavation is a non-destructive method of excavation that uses high-pressure water to break up the ground and suction to remove the resulting slurry. We can also utilise a saw to break up concrete and rocks (see video).


Our team has a range of vac trucks and other vehicles to ensure your project is completed to the highest standards. Call us on 0418 777 846 to organise an excavation. We can conduct hydro excavations in remote locations and in spaces with limited access.

Avoid Utility Damage

There are numerous benefits to using hydro excavation including:


  • Increased safety—Hydro excavation is much safer than traditional methods of excavation, which can pose a serious risk to workers and the public. Our specialist team will carefully control hydro equipment to avoid harming underground pipes and cables.
  • Reduced cost—Hydro excavation is highly efficient and will save you time and money.
  • Improved accuracy—We use hydro excavation for precise trenches and holes. It’s the most reliable method for digging in sensitive areas.
