FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions – Road Maintenance, Sweeping & Hydro Excavation Services.
Where do you fill up water for power washing and hydro excavation in Toronto and Durham Region?
We use city-permitted hydrants and approved bulk water stations to ensure safe, compliant water sourcing for hydro excavation and power washing services across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and Durham Region.
Do your street sweepers use water while sweeping roads and parking lots?
