Fast response to Wilmington
When a Truck Goes Down in Wilmington,
The Port Doesn't Wait.
A hydrovac stuck on a refinery job or a tractor dead on Route 13 costs the same thing: crew time, missed loads and a dealer that can't see you until next week.
$800-$1,500+
Lost Per Hour
Crew wages, equipment rental and missed billing on Port of Wilmington and refinery jobs add up by the hour.
Days to Weeks
Dealer Wait
Wilmington-area heavy-duty shops are booked out. Hydrovac specialists? There isn't one on the corner.
Two Shops
Split Repairs
A truck shop won't touch the vac body and a vac shop won't touch the engine. Your truck bounces between them.
$500+
Towing a Class 8
Hauling a loaded hydrovac or a tractor off I-95 to a shop adds hundreds before anyone turns a wrench.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
We come to Wilmington. Chassis, engine, aftertreatment and the whole vac side get handled in one visit, at your yard or on the jobsite.

"If your truck isn't running, you're not earning. That's a problem we take personally."

Diesel Experience
Nick Zimmerman, Serving Wilmington
I'm Nick—owner, lead mechanic, and the guy who actually answers the phone. After 25+ years turning wrenches on diesel equipment, I've seen every problem a hydrovac truck can throw at you. Cummins, CAT, Detroit Diesel, Allison transmissions—I've rebuilt them all, usually on job sites where time is money.
When your hydrovac goes down, you're not just losing a truck—you're losing revenue, missing deadlines, and watching your crew sit idle. That's why I built this business around one simple idea: get your equipment running, fast.
