Culvert Cleaning

Culvert cleaning has proved a problem to some of our clients. We have developed a jet pump system to suck out silt and debris. To date, the largest culvert we worked upon was 300 metres long and 2 metres in diameter and involved the removal of over 800 tonnes of waste.

Hydro Root Cutting

We undertake root cutting in pipes up to a length of 300 metres. We have a range of root cutting equipment available, enabling us to contend with any root problem in pipes up to 900mm in diameter. Larger diameter pipes can be cleared of roots using man entry methods.

Bore hole cleaning

Our methods enable us to successfully clean bore holes to a depth of 50 metres. This is proven on site with CCTV cameras in conjunction with high-pressure water surface cleaning equipment.

Repair / Construction of Old and New Systems

When problems have been detected during an investigation, we can undertake any remedial work that may be required to return the system back to working order by using a "No Dig" procedure, thus causing minimal disruption to the client.
