Keeping repair crews moving during line breaks and winter freezes
When a pressurized water line, SWD line or municipal main breaks, the excavation pit fills with mud and water faster than a backhoe can bail it out—and digging blind in muddy water risks striking adjacent utilities. A hydrovac truck simultaneously vacuums standing water and slurry out of the hole while gently washing away soil around the ruptured coupling.
Units equipped with onboard diesel water heaters also cut through frozen ground and thaw iced-over valve boxes during West Texas winter cold snaps.
For urgent or emergency hydrovac dispatch
- Call our local Midland routing line directly or mark 'Emergency / Today' in the form.
- Provide exact pin location, leaking line type, and on-site supervisor contact number.
- Confirm where vacuumed water/mud can be offloaded.
