Hydro-excavation on the North Shore
Why hydro-excavation on the North Shore makes all the difference
Montreal's North Shore is characterized by a dense network of underground services (water, gas, electrical cables), high-density residential areas, aging infrastructure, and frequent construction projects. In this context, the use of hydro-excavation is essential to ensure the safety, precision, and protection of existing infrastructure.
Our locally based teams have in-depth knowledge of the area's specific characteristics (soil, climate, municipal regulations). We respond quickly, using appropriate equipment, minimizing disruption for you, your neighbors, and public utilities. Whether it's for pipe installation, repairs, utility clearing, or drain cleaning, our local expertise makes all the difference.
By choosing Hydro-Excavation Rive-Nord, you benefit from a service dedicated to your region, respectful of the environment, safe and compliant with current standards.
Compliance & regulations
At Hydro-Excavation Rive-Nord, we operate in full compliance with the standards in force in Quebec. We hold a valid license issued by the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ), which attests that we meet the legal requirements for carrying out excavation, drainage and inspection work.
We adhere to all relevant regulations regarding safety, quality, and the protection of underground infrastructure. Before any work begins, we verify the location of utility networks (cables, pipes, water mains, sewers) and employ appropriate non-destructive methods. Operating under an RBQ license, we offer our clients the assurance of a legal, insured service that meets provincial standards.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is hydro-excavation and why is it preferred over traditional excavation?
Hydro-excavation uses high-pressure water and a powerful vacuum to excavate gently, without damaging underground utilities (cables, pipes, drains). It is a safe, precise, and environmentally friendly method, particularly well-suited to urban or densely built-up areas.
In what cases do you recommend pipe cleaning or French drains?
We recommend these services to prevent backups, overflows, or cracks: clogged drains, sumps, oil separators, ineffective French drains, unpleasant odors, or slow drainage. Regular preventative maintenance extends the lifespan of your systems and avoids major repairs.
Are your services only for residential property owners?
No. We offer our services to residential, commercial, and industrial property owners. Whether it's a renovation project, a construction site, utility clearance, or building maintenance, our team is equipped to meet a variety of needs.
In which geographical area do you operate?
We operate throughout the North Shore of Montreal, as well as in Laval, downtown Montreal, and the Laurentians. We adapt our services to the local context: urban environment, suburbs, industrial or residential construction sites.
