Excavation & Vactor Services
Complete Underground Plumbing Equipment
When a plumbing problem extends beyond the walls of your home or business, you need a contractor with the experience and equipment to get the job done right.
JEM Plumbing provides complete excavation and hydro excavation (Vactor) services for residential, commercial, municipal, and industrial customers. From repairing a broken water service to installing underground utilities for new construction, our team manages every phase of the project—from locating and exposing utilities to excavation, installation, repair, testing, and site restoration.
Our in-house equipment allows us to complete projects safely, efficiently, and with greater control over scheduling and quality.
Why Hydro Excavation?
Hydro excavation has become the preferred method for exposing underground utilities because it is:
✔ Safer for existing utilities
✔ More precise than conventional digging
✔ Minimizes property damage
✔ Reduces restoration costs
✔ Improves jobsite safety
✔ Ideal for congested utility corridors
Hydro Excavation (Vactor Services)
Our RamVac HX12 Hydro Excavation Truck uses high-pressure water and a powerful vacuum system to safely expose underground utilities with minimal disruption.
Hydro excavation is ideal for:
- Utility locating and daylighting
- Water main repairs
- Sewer repairs
- Gas line exposure
- Pole and sign foundations
- Commercial construction
- Municipal utility work
- Sensitive excavation around existing utilities
- Catch basin and structure cleaning
- Debris removal
By using pressurized water instead of traditional mechanical digging, hydro excavation significantly reduces the risk of damaging existing underground infrastructure.
