Built to Solve a Real Problem
Hydrovac Repair was created to solve a growing problem in the industry: too much downtime when hydrovac trucks break down. Dealers are often booked out for weeks, leaving companies with idle equipment and delayed projects. We knew there had to be a better way.
Our founder, Nick, is a certified diesel mechanic with 25+ years of experience working on heavy trucks and specialized equipment. He knows these machines inside and out — not just the engines, but pumps, blowers, booms, hydraulics, electrical systems, hoses, debris tanks, chassis — every system that keeps them running.
That hands-on mechanical expertise means we can diagnose problems faster, fix them correctly the first time, and get trucks back on the job without unnecessary delays.
