Daylighting some utilities in Madison for a local contractor.

A little late to post, but here’s a look at what we’ve been up to the last couple weeks. 👇

We helped a contractor safely locate utilities in a heavily congested area so they could install a new sanitary sewer for an upcoming building project. Tight spaces and lots of existing lines made this one a perfect job for hydrovac.

We worked all weekend to keep things on schedule and make sure the traffic closure could be removed by Monday. 👍

To wrap things up, we also jetted the line to clear out debris and ensure everything is flowing properly.

Yesterday we were daylighting primary electric lines so our customer could safely place piles away from the buried lines. Even with roughly "18 of frost, we were able to complete the job on time.

Here’s a project we recently helped with:

One of our customers needed to replace a product line at a local grainery. Using our hydrovac, we precisely removed the washed stone around the fuel tank mound system, allowing the crew to access the faulty line without disturbing surrounding structures.

Without hydrovac excavation, the retaining wall shown would’ve needed to be removed and rebuilt—adding significant time and expense to the project. By excavating only what was needed, we helped reduce labor, material, and restoration costs while keeping the job on schedule.

If your project requires accurate excavation that saves time and money, look no further than Betts Hydrovac.

Cold one out there today!

We helped a local crew in La Crosse dig down to a broken water service, and even with a high temp of 16°, the hydrovac kept things moving.

We were able to safely work around live gas and sewer lines without any issues — frozen ground or not, this is what we do.

If you need a hand digging in the cold, Betts Hydrovac has you covered.

Last week we dug some foundations for menu boards at a couple local Culvers restaurants.

With tight workspaces and underground lines present, our hydrovac was the quickest and safest way to dig!

In Milwaukee County, the ground hides a story most people cannot see. Water, gas, power, and communication lines often run just below the surface, and guessing their location can lead to broken lines, fines, delays, or worse. Daylighting is the careful, non-destructive way to uncover these utilities so work can move forward safely and efficiently.

At Betts Hydrovac, based in Sparta, WI, we help homeowners, builders, and utility teams across Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa. Our approach is simple: assess the site, uncover the utilities, and give you clear answers before any digging begins. Hydro excavation is ideal for clay, frozen ground, or compacted soil, while air excavation works when water use is limited or a dry backfill is needed.

The cost depends on soil, depth, access, and permits, but a skilled crew ensures a fair price and a clean, safe site. In a county with dense utilities and busy projects, daylighting is not optional—it is essential for protecting your property, your schedule, and your peace of mind.

Homeowners in Milwaukee County know how much heavy rain and melting snow can impact a property. A catch basin helps by trapping debris and keeping stormwater flowing. But when it fills up, it can no longer do its job. That’s when standing water, odors, and even water damage can follow.

The cost of cleaning depends on factors like basin size, how accessible it is, the amount of debris, and how often it’s serviced. Regular cleanings are usually more affordable, while waiting years between visits often makes the job harder and more expensive.

DIY cleaning might look like a way to save, but damaged basins or incomplete cleanings often lead to higher costs later.

At Betts Hydrovac, we’ve helped homeowners across Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa, including here in Milwaukee County, protect their properties with reliable catch basin cleaning.
