GapVax: How Our Trucks Are Made

GapVax: How Our Trucks Are Made

Johnstown, Pennsylvania

At Ecotech Hydro Excavation, we strive to partner with companies who not only provide wonderful products but also share our belief that giving back to the community remains at the core of what we do. The Ecotech team recently visited the GapVax production facility in historic Johnstown, Pennsylvania. We were excited to see first-hand where our state-of-the-art hydro-excavation trucks are built. The process begins as raw steel and ends with a fully equipped truck—built to last through a generation. It was truly amazing to see up close.

Meet the Team: Blake Huber, Owner / Vice President

Meet the Team: Blake Huber, Owner / Vice President

Vice President Blake Huber of Ecotech has been in the standard excavation business for fifteen years. While on an emergency weekend call, Blake saw a hydro excavator in action and was immediately intrigued by the excitement of the growing industry. Seeing the time and labor this method would save his team, Blake founded Ecotech Hydro Excavation in 2011.

Blake finds that helping his clients procure solutions to the most challenging of excavation problems has been the most rewarding aspect of his job. Ecotech has worked on a vast variety of jobs, including one to remove over 2,000 cubic yards of fill dirt from a hospital basement in Philadelphia. As a result, the cost of Ecotech came in as less than half of the next closest bid due to their use of hydro excavation, rather than hand digging.

In his free time, Blake enjoys spending time with his wife and three children, hunting with his son, and taking trips to the mountains.
