A Better Way To Dig

Anyone who works around buried utilities knows how important it is to dig carefully. One mistake can slow a project down or cause damage that could’ve been avoided. Randy Carter Construction’s hydrovac excavation service solves that problem by using pressurized water and a powerful vacuum to remove soil in a clean and controlled way. It’s by far the safest method for exposing utilities and creating access points where accuracy matters.
With our hydrovac excavation service, weather is never a delay. Our truck is built to run all year-round with heated components and a boiler that cuts through frozen ground. That means you get precise, reliable results no matter the season, and the work moves forward on schedule.

Our Services

Potholing and Daylighting

We carefully expose underground utilities to give a clear view of what lies beneath the surface. This allows you to confirm locations, depths, and alignments before any digging or installation begins. By removing soil in a controlled way, we reduce the risk of damaging existing lines or infrastructure. Our process is safe and precise, making it easy to plan the next steps for your project without surprises.

Applications:

  • Visually confirm buried utility lines
  • Identify pipeline and utility crossings
  • Prepare test holes for directional drilling
  • Install protection or monitoring equipment
  • Support Subsurface Utility Engineering (S.U.E) assessments

Slot Trenching

Slot trenching creates narrow, precise trenches for installing utilities, conduits, or cables in locations where space is limited or accuracy is critical. Unlike traditional digging, this method keeps the surrounding area intact and reduces surface disruption. It’s ideal for projects where every inch matters and for running lines close to existing infrastructure.

Applications:

  • Install conduit and small utility lines
  • Run fiber optic or communication cables
  • Place irrigation or drainage lines
  • Create trenches in confined spaces
  • Protect nearby underground infrastructure

Debris Removal

Debris removal with our hydrovac system allows us to clean areas that are difficult to access with standard equipment. We remove soil, mud, gravel, sludge, and other loose materials safely and efficiently. This service is especially useful for clearing storm drains, culverts, and other confined or sensitive areas. By removing buildup, we help restore proper flow, reduce the risk of flooding, and prepare sites for repair or installation work. Using a hydrovac for debris removal keeps the area tidy and prevents damage to nearby structures.

Applications:

  • Storm drain cleaning and maintenance
  • Culvert clearing and sediment removal
  • Removing debris from tight or sensitive areas
  • Preparing sites for repairs or installations
  • Clearing excess soil from excavation areas

Utility Pole Holes

We dig precise holes for a wide range of poles, from power and telecom to traffic signals, light standards, and fence posts. Our hydrovac excavation method produces clean holes with exact depth and diameter while minimizing the risk of collapse. This allows for faster and safer installations. The holes are ready to use immediately, reducing the time and effort spent on manual adjustments. Whether you’re installing a single pole or multiple posts in a row, Randy Carter Construction ensures consistent, reliable results every time.

Applications:

  • Power and telecom pole installations
  • Traffic signal and street light bases
  • Sign and light standard placement
  • Fence post or barrier installation
  • Any site needing precise, deep holes
