Hydrovac Services in Edmonton, Alberta
Our hydrovac (hydro-excavation) services provide a safe and efficient way to expose utilities, perform slot trenching, potholing, and manage delicate excavations throughout Edmonton and Northern Alberta. Using a combination of pressurized water and powerful vacuum extraction, we remove soil and debris without disturbing nearby infrastructure. This non-destructive method is especially effective in congested urban corridors, under paved surfaces, and within areas where multiple utilities are located in close proximity.
Urban Construction in Edmonton, Alberta
In Edmonton’s urban core — from Whyte Avenue to Downtown and into established neighbourhoods like Strathcona or Oliver — hydrovac allows us to accurately expose gas, water, telecom, and electrical lines before tie-ins or repairs. This precise method keeps worksites safer, reduces the risk of utility strikes, and minimizes the amount of surface reinstatement required.
From residential projects in West Edmonton and Mill Woods to commercial sites in Downtown or large-scale work in Edmonton’s industrial zones, our hydrovac fleet scales to meet the needs of any project.
Learn more about how hydrovac fits into our construction services, or see our Hydrovac Services page.
Edmonton Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) Services
At Double M Group, our horizontal directional drilling (HDD) services provide precise underground utility installation while keeping surface disruption to a minimum.
Whether it’s placing a telecom conduit beneath major roadways, a gas line crossing near Anthony Henday Drive, or a sewer tie-in in Edmonton’s core, our experienced team and specialized equipment can complete complex bore paths without damaging surrounding roads, sidewalks, or landscaping.
Precision Tools, Reliable Results
We utilize advanced drill rigs, steerable tooling, and subsurface guidance systems to ensure accuracy in a wide range of soil conditions, from clay and sand to gravel and cobbles. HDD is the preferred method for crossing rivers, highways, rail lines, and dense urban corridors where open-cut trenching is not feasible. The technique minimizes reinstatement costs, reduces community disruption, and supports efficient project delivery.
As a locally experienced contractor, we understand Edmonton’s permitting requirements, utility coordination processes, and the challenges of working in diverse neighbourhoods — from Downtown to West Edmonton, Mill Woods, and industrial zones across the city.

Professional Edmonton Excavation Services
Double M provides comprehensive excavation services in Edmonton for residential, commercial, and municipal projects. From grading new subdivisions in South Edmonton to trenching in the Downtown core or stabilizing embankments along the North Saskatchewan River, our team is equipped to manage earthmoving, trenching, rock removal, and more. Our fleet of excavators, backhoes, dump trucks, and support equipment allows us to handle everything from tight infill sites to large industrial developments.
Integrated Excavation Services
We often integrate excavation with our HDD and hydrovac services for maximum efficiency. Open trenching may be used in straightforward zones, HDD for complex crossings, and hydrovac for safe daylighting of buried utilities. This seamless approach simplifies project coordination and ensures consistent results across disciplines.
Safety, soil handling, erosion control, and full site restoration remain priorities on every excavation project. In Edmonton, we are familiar with municipal regulations, erosion and sediment control (ESC) requirements, and site access challenges — particularly in busy neighbourhoods like Oliver, Strathcona, or West Edmonton where space is limited.

Construction Management Services in Edmonton, Alberta
Beyond earthworks, Double M provides construction project management, inspection, and consulting services tailored to Edmonton’s infrastructure and development sector. Acting as a single point of accountability, we coordinate contractors, manage schedules, oversee quality, and ensure safety across HDD, hydrovac, excavation, and utility construction scopes.

Our team understands Edmonton’s municipal standards for roads, stormwater, and utilities, and we support clients from early design reviews through commissioning and as-built handover. Whether your project involves a multi-lot residential development in South Edmonton or a utility corridor along Anthony Henday Drive, we bring expertise in contract administration, schedule management, value engineering, and site safety.
By combining hands-on services (HDD, hydrovac, and excavation) with strong management leadership, we deliver efficient results that minimize risks and keep projects moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Hydrovac is ideal in Edmonton because it allows us to safely expose underground utilities in congested areas without mechanical digging. This reduces the risk of utility strikes and is especially useful in dense neighbourhoods and busy urban corridors where multiple lines may run close together.
HDD is especially valuable for projects that require utility installation under obstacles like rivers, major roads, or established developments. In Edmonton, this includes running pipelines beneath the North Saskatchewan River, installing telecom under busy intersections, or completing sewer connections in built-up neighbourhoods where open trenching would be disruptive or impractical.
Yes. Our excavation services cover everything from small residential site grading or utility tie-ins to major industrial and municipal projects. Whether it’s an infill lot in Oliver or a large subdivision in South Edmonton, our fleet and team scale to match the project size.
Our construction management services cover contractor coordination, scheduling, quality assurance, and safety oversight. In Edmonton, we also help clients navigate municipal permitting, erosion and sediment control requirements, and site access challenges to keep projects on track.
You can complete a project inquiry or contact us at (403) 554-9739. We typically ask for site location (with geospatial info or address), drawings or utility maps if available, project description (type of service: hydrovac, HDD, excavation, CM), and expected timelines or constraints. After a site review or utility scan, we’ll prepare a tailored proposal.
