Hydrovac Excavation
Our Hydrovac vehicles allow us to excavate in locations where mechanical excavation would not be safe, feasible or practical. This method of excavating uses water pressure to liquefy the soil and then a high-powered vacuum removes it to an on board storage tank. Hydrovac excavation prevents damage to buried utilities that can be caused by mechanical excavation. Hydrovac is the only approved method to dig around sensitive underground structures, such as electrical, gas, water, sewer, telephone, and fibre systems. In Ontario it is unlawful to use an excavator or other earth mover within 1 metre of any underground utility.
Our most common tasks:
• Utility pole installation or repair
• Utility daylighting and potholing
• Repair service pits
• Slot trenching
• Water box repairs
• Excavating in frost
Hydrovac is a great way to keep your project running on time with minimal interruption to the work site or surrounding area.
Horizontal Directional Drilling
Horizontal directional drilling enables Hapamp to perform trench less underground installations with
minimal disruption to surfaces and above ground activity.
Directional drilling is ideal for:
• Installation of gas, electric, water and telecommunications
• Boring under roads, landscaping, water crossings, paved areas, electric, and water services
• Ensuring minimal environmental disruption
• Installations in diverse ground conditions
Utility Repairs & Installations
We can complete any trenching and excavating task you require. Our specialty is the placement of utility
infrastructure, this includes the installation of underground communication cables, hydro and natural gas.
We also have extensive experience in the installation and repair of water services.

PRIVATE LOCATES
While Ontario One Call operates the notification system for buried infrastructure, it’s the responsibility of homeowners to have the following types of infrastructure marked:
- Gas line that goes from a house to a BBQ or pool heater
- Lights or signs on the property
- Electrical lines going out to sheds or a detached garage
- Sewer and septic tanks, systems and piping
- Telecom or electrical lines feeding security cameras
Pipe Fusion
We are 1 of 3 companies certified in Ontario for PVC Fusion and have a team of professionals with over 18 years of experience in the field. When you have pipe that you need to fuse together, it’s important to choose the right
type of pipe fusion method for your project to be a success. Hapamp is proud to offer plastic fusion with certified operators trained in both HDPE, or High-density Polyethylene and PVC, Polyvinyl Chloride.
Butt Fusion is the most common method of fusing HDPE pipes. The ends of polyethylene pipe when heated and brought together under pressure with specialized equipment form one continuous “leak proof” pipeline. Properly made, a pipe fusion is as strong as the pipe itself and has the same life expectancy.
Currently offering:
• HDPE Butt Fusion – 1 ¼” up to 18” in diameter
• PVC Butt Fusion – 4” up to 16” in diameter
