Advanced Dredging Equipment. Proven Results

We provide hydraulic and mechanical dredging services in Texas and the surrounding states. We also perform dredging nationwide depending on the scope of the project. 

Our fleet spans from compact hydraulic dredging units for retention ponds to heavy-duty mechanical dredges for major waterway projects. Using advanced technology and precision techniques, we remove sediment efficiently while keeping disruption to a minimum, delivering reliable results on any scale.

Hydraulic Dredging Services

Hydraulic dredging is a precise, low-impact method of removing accumulated silt, muck, and debris by pumping a water-sediment slurry through floating pipelines to an onshore containment or dewatering area. Using a cutterhead or articulating suction head, we target only the material that needs to go. This protects shorelines, docks, and habitat while restoring depth and flow

Best for: general ponds, golf course ponds, HOA/community lakes and ponds, stormwater retention basins, canals, marinas, and industrial lagoons.

  • Minimal disruption: No draining ponds; work from the water with small footprints.

  • Precision results: Depth and area controlled by GPS/sonar for consistent grades.

  • Efficient & scalable: Continuous pumping moves large volumes quickly and safely.

  • Cleaner water systems: Removes nutrient-rich sediment that fuels algae blooms.

  • Flexible handling: Sediment directed to geotextile tubes, settling cells, or reuse sites.
     

Mechanical Dredging Services  

Mechanical dredging removes sediment, debris, and obstructions using excavators, long-reach amphibious machines, or crane-mounted clamshell buckets. Material is scooped directly from the bottom and loaded into trucks or barges for transport to an approved disposal or reuse site, ideal where access is available or water levels can be lowered.

Best for: compacted or rocky material, shoreline rebuilds, culvert and intake clearances, marina slips, debris removal after storms, and structural work near docks or bridges.

  • Direct, exact removal: Cut precisely to line and grade for spot fixes or small areas.

  • Handles tough material: Effective on consolidated sediments, rock, logs, and heavy debris.

  • Shoreline & structures: Suited for riprap placement, bank shaping, and repair work.

  • Flexible logistics: Load-out to trucks, scows, or on-site stockpiles for dewatering and reuse.

  • Control measures: Silt curtains and BMPs to protect water quality and downstream habitat.
