Services
Natural Gas Distribution Construction
We construct complete natural gas distribution systems from gate stations to customer meters. Our certified technicians install pipelines using advanced welding techniques and GPS mapping to ensure precision. The service includes pressure testing, fitting installation, and environmental compliance measures to guarantee safe, long-term operation of gas infrastructure.
Water Distribution Construction
Our water distribution solutions utilize HDPE and Ductile Iron piping for durable, leak-resistant systems. We implement trenchless technologies and traditional excavation methods to install pipelines while minimizing surface disruption. The service covers pump station connections through to meter installations with corrosion-resistant materials and leak detection systems.
Horizontal Directional Drilling
We provide directional drilling for utility installations beneath roads, rivers, and sensitive areas. Our equipment handles diameters from 0.25 to 12 inches using real-time tracking systems. This method preserves surface structures while installing conduits for gas, water, and fiber optic lines with minimal environmental impact.
Hydrovac Excavation
Our hydrovac systems use pressurized water and vacuum technology for precise, safe excavation. This method exposes underground utilities without damaging existing infrastructure. Available in multiple configurations, it's ideal for potholing, slot trenching, and working near sensitive underground assets in urban environments.
Engineering Services
We offer full engineering support including mechanical and civil design, environmental permitting, and construction routing. Our P.E.-licensed team uses Trimble and Topcon surveying equipment with Locusview mapping software. Services include as-built documentation, field mapping, and integrated project management for complete infrastructure solutions.
