Services
Earthwork
Kissick Construction provides comprehensive earthwork services including demolition, grading, and site preparation. Our team utilizes advanced surveying technology and a modern equipment fleet to handle projects from small-scale developments to large industrial sites. With expertise in fly-ash stabilization and landfill construction, we deliver precise, cost-effective solutions that meet exacting engineering standards while minimizing environmental impact.
Trenchless Technology
Our trenchless technology services utilize CIPP lining, pipe bursting, and slip-lining methods to renew underground infrastructure without disruptive excavation. Partnering with LMK Technologies, we offer durable solutions for sewer rehabilitation that preserve landscapes and reduce project timelines. This approach addresses both municipal and industrial needs while maintaining operational continuity during repairs.
Hydro Excavation
Kissick's hydro excavation services combine high-pressure water jets and vacuum systems for precise, safe excavation. This method safely exposes underground utilities in congested areas while minimizing damage risks. Our equipment handles frozen soil conditions and hard-to-reach excavations, offering cost savings through reduced restoration needs and smaller crew requirements compared to traditional methods.
Deep Foundation Systems
We specialize in deep foundation solutions including augered cast piles, driven piles, and micro piles for challenging geotechnical conditions. Our engineered shoring systems support large-scale infrastructure projects requiring stability in difficult soil environments. These solutions enable construction of critical facilities like power plants and industrial complexes while ensuring long-term structural integrity.
Structural Concrete
Kissick's structural concrete services cover mass concrete pours and complex formwork for industrial and utility projects. Our experienced crews construct durable foundations, elevated structures, and underground systems using advanced placement techniques. This expertise supports critical infrastructure like power generation facilities and water treatment plants requiring precise, long-lasting concrete solutions.
