Hydro Demolition
HYDRO DEMOLITION
In Onyx Engineering, we offer cutting-edge hydro demolition services designed to provide effective and precise concrete removal and surface preparation. Our hydro demolition techniques use high-pressure water jets to remove concrete and other materials, ensuring a clean and controlled process for a variety of applications.
Onyx Engineering is committed to delivering high-quality hydro demolition services with a focus on precision, safety, and efficiency. Our experienced team utilizes advanced equipment and techniques to ensure that every project is completed to the highest standards. Whether you’re working on a repair, renovation, or new construction project, our hydro demolition services provide effective solutions tailored to your needs. Hydro demolition, also known as water jet demolition, is a sophisticated technique that uses high-pressure water jets to remove concrete and other materials. This method offers a range of benefits, making it a preferred choice for many demolition projects.
Hydro demolition involves using high-pressure water jets, often exceeding 20,000 psi (pounds per square inch), to strip away concrete surfaces. The water is directed through specialized nozzles to effectively remove deteriorated or unwanted concrete while preserving the underlying structure.

BENEFITS
- Precision Removal: Hydro demolition allows for highly precise removal of concrete, targeting specific areas without damaging adjacent structures or surfaces. This is ideal for detailed repairs and selective demolition.
- Reduced Noise and Vibration: Unlike traditional demolition methods, hydro demolition generates minimal noise and vibration, making it suitable for use in noise-sensitive environments such as residential areas, hospitals, and historical sites.
- Environmentally Friendly: The process is environmentally friendly, as it uses water as the primary cutting medium. It produces minimal dust and debris, contributing to a cleaner and safer work environment.
- Improved Safety: Hydro demolition reduces the risk of accidents associated with manual demolition methods. The controlled use of high-pressure water minimizes the need for manual handling and exposure to hazardous conditions.
- Efficient Surface Preparation: In addition to removal, hydro demolition provides effective surface preparation by creating a rough texture that enhances the adhesion of new concrete or coatings.
- Minimized Impact: The use of high-pressure water minimizes vibrations and shock waves, which helps prevent damage to adjacent structures and existing elements.
SERVICES
- Concrete Removal: We use hydro demolition to efficiently remove old or damaged concrete from surfaces such as bridge decks, roadways, and industrial floors, ensuring a clean and precise process.
- Surface Preparation: Our hydro demolition services are ideal for preparing surfaces for new concrete or coatings, providing a roughened texture that improves adhesion and performance.
- Structural Repair: We perform hydro demolition to access and repair structural elements, including reinforcement exposure and damaged sections, while preserving the integrity of surrounding areas.
- Selective Demolition: Hydro demolition is used for selective removal of concrete in specific areas, allowing for targeted repairs or modifications without affecting the entire structure.
