R&D Action at Groundhogs™️
For years, one of the biggest challenges in foundation waterproofing has been excavating tight spaces between homes, beneath decks, and along long foundation walls where traditional excavators simply can’t reach. The result? Hours of exhausting hand digging, increased labour costs, and longer project timelines.
Not anymore!
After identifying this challenge in the field, our team designed, engineered, and built a custom telescopic excavator jib attachment for our compact excavators. This innovative system extends the reach of our machines by up to 12 feet, allowing us to safely and efficiently excavate areas that previously required extensive manual labour.
- Reach under decks without removing them
- Excavate tight spaces between homes
- Dig foundation walls up to 40 feet long with little to no hand digging
- Reduce labour requirements
- Increase production and efficiency
- Get projects completed faster for our customers
At Groundhogs™️, we’re constantly investing in better equipment, ideas, better systems, and better ways of doing things. We believe in finding smarter solutions that benefit both our team and our customers.
This custom telescopic jib is just one small example of how Groundhogs™️ continues to push the industry forward.
