Different Ways to Use an Excavator

Excavators are versatile pieces of heavy equipment that can be used in a variety of ways on construction projects. If you’re wondering how to best use your excavation equipment, keep reading to find out!

Repair Sewer Lines

Need to clear away ground to do repairs on a sewer system? While it’s nice that your sewer system is out of the way and buried underground most of the time, it can be difficult when you need to repair or replace it. An excavator can be used to avoid harming the pipes and make it much easier to get down to the sewer system so you can get work done. After you’re finished, you can cover everything up again.

Install a Swimming Pool

Most yards are not level enough to permit the installation of an above-ground pool, which means that a foundation must be created. An excavator is perfect for this task and will leave you with even ground that’s ready for your above-ground pool. As for a below-ground pool, your excavator can dig out the area where you plan to install it in very little time so you can start construction more quickly.

Demolition

If you have an old, dilapidated building on your property that has to come down, you can use an excavator (equipped with a hydraulic claw, cutter, or breaker attachments) to bring the building down quickly before you clear away the debris. Do away with that ancient shed, rotting barn, or unsightly buildings on your property with little fuss by using an excavator to take a great deal of the work out of demolition.
