Dredging restores waterways to their intended purpose - moving water efficiently, preventing backups, and supporting healthy ecosystems. Immediate benefits of waterway dredging include: 

• Increased water capacity: The removal of the sediment from canal and ponds floors increase the cross-sectional area of the waterway; allowing it to hold a larger volume of water during severe rain storms or and other inclement weather conditions. 
• Improved water flow: Clearing sediment, debris, rocks, and other obstructions enhances flow rate and reduces resistance. Increased depth also accelerates movement, improving overall system performance
• Reduced flood risk: Enhanced flow and increased capacity work together to reduce the likelihood of flooding.
• Improved Water Quality: Dredging removes contaminated or nutrient-rich sediments, resulting in cleaner, clearer water and healthier aquatic environments.
• Preserved Property Value: Routine dredging prevents costly water damage and protects the long-term value of community assets. It also maintains attractive, clear waterways—enhancing curb appeal for neighborhoods, event venues, and commercial properties.

Best for: High volume, soft sediment removal i.e. silt, sand, light pollutants.

Environmental conditions are changing rapidly, and proactive waterway maintenance has never been more important. Regular dredging preserves system performance, reduces long-term costs, and minimizes the risk of catastrophic flood damage.

According to the Congressional Budget Office (Federal Spending for Flood Adaptations, 2024), flooding has caused an average of $46 billion in damage annually over the past decade—and is projected to increase by 25–33% by 2050 due to climate-driven flood risk.

Proactive maintenance today protects your community, property, and infrastructure tomorrow.
