Services
Cross Bore Elimination
Our cross bore elimination system prevents dangerous utility conflicts during construction. Using advanced camera systems and precise documentation, we identify and resolve potential gas line and sewer intersections. Our pre-installation and post-installation verification processes ensure safety compliance for municipal and industrial projects nationwide.
Hydro Excavation
Hydro excavation services provide safe, accurate digging using high-pressure water and vacuum systems. This non-invasive method exposes utilities without damaging underground infrastructure. Ideal for slot trenching, potholing, and precise excavation in sensitive environments while maintaining worksite safety.
CIPP Lining
Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining offers trenchless sewer pipe rehabilitation. Our steam-cured resin liners create durable, root-resistant replacements without excavation. This eco-friendly solution repairs damaged pipes in hours rather than days, minimizing property disruption while extending pipeline lifespan up to 50 years.
Sewer Assessment
Comprehensive sewer assessments combine NASSCO-certified CCTV inspections with precise mapping. Our robotic cameras evaluate pipe condition, identify defects, and document findings for maintenance planning. Services include mainline and lateral line assessments with real-time video documentation for accurate repair decisions.
24/7 Emergency Response
Emergency response teams provide 24/7 assistance for critical infrastructure failures. Specializing in confined space rescue, spill cleanup, and urgent pipe repairs, our rapid deployment units handle hazardous situations safely. Available for industrial, municipal, and commercial clients with immediate on-site problem resolution capabilities.
