Hydraulic Dredging Services
Hydraulic dredging uses powerful suction pumps to excavate and transport sediment through a pipeline. This method is ideal for large-scale projects that require the removal of soft sediments like silt, clay, and sand.
Our fleet of hydraulic dredges can remove solids from the bottom of a channel, pond or lagoon without disrupting the surface water or the need to remove the surface water. The cutter head can dive 20 feet deep, and the pumps are capable of pumping solids, sand, small rocks, silt, and more.

Mechanical Dredging Services
Mechanical dredging involves the use of heavy machinery, such as backhoes, cranes, and clamshell buckets, to excavate and remove sediments. This method is well-suited for projects involving coarse or compacted materials.
Our mechanical dredging equipment is designed to handle the toughest conditions, efficiently removing sediments from confined spaces and difficult-to-access areas. With the ability to handle larger debris and more compacted materials, mechanical dredging is ideal for maintaining navigable waterways, constructing new channels, and restoring heavily impacted sites. Our experienced team ensures precise excavation and minimal disruption to the surrounding environment.
