Hydrovac Services
Valhalla provides professional hydrovac and non-destructive excavation services for utility, municipal, commercial and industrial projects throughout British Columbia.

With multiple hydrovac units and supporting civil equipment, Valhalla can support daylighting, potholing, slot trenching, pole and anchor holes, drilling and HDD support, catch-basin and culvert cleaning, material removal, regulated-waste transportation under our LT Licence, emergency response, backfilling and site restoration.
Utility Daylighting & Hydrovac Excavation
Hydrovac excavation is a critical tool for safely exposing buried utilities and investigating subsurface conditions. Valhalla can provide daylighting and exposure services before mechanical excavation, around proposed pole holes, at road crossings, within congested utility corridors and around existing electrical, gas, communications, water and sewer infrastructure.
Hydrovac work can also support slot trenching, test holes, service investigations, excavation around structures and cleanup of wet or difficult material. When the hydrovac scope is connected to Valhalla’s civil or electrical work, information gathered during daylighting can be immediately incorporated into the construction plan.
Contaminated Material & Environmental Support
Hydrovac excavation is often used where soil conditions, buried infrastructure or environmental requirements demand controlled excavation and material handling.
Valhalla supports contaminated-soil excavation, material removal, hauling and regulated-waste transportation under our BC Hazardous Waste Transporter (LT) Licence. Our crews can coordinate excavation, material handling and site restoration while supporting the environmental and safety requirements of complex project sites.
