What can we help you with?

Municipal services

Line jetting

High pressure jetting that cuts through grease, roots and build up and puts the line back to full bore.

Residential / Business / Municipal

Lift station services

Service, repair and emergency response on lift stations, including the pumps, floats and panels.

Residential / Business / Municipal

Emergency service, 24/7

Call any hour and a real person answers. Not a call centre, not a message service.

Residential / Business / Municipal

Hydro excavation

Digging with water and vacuum instead of a bucket, so buried lines and cables come up intact.

Business / Municipal

Catch basin cleaning

Basins cleaned out before the silt and debris in them backs water up onto the surface.

Business / Municipal

Grading and excavating

Site work that goes with the system, done by our own crews rather than a subcontractor.

Residential / Business / Municipal

Grease trap service

Scheduled pumping and manifests for kitchens that cannot afford a shutdown.

Business / Municipal

Preventative maintenance contracts

A service schedule set in advance, so the work happens before the failure rather than after it.

Residential / Business / Municipal

Line camera inspections

A camera down the line to find the break, the belly or the root intrusion before anyone digs.

Vacuum removal of liquids, slurry and solids from tanks, basins and wet wells.

Our own vacuum fleet, dispatched from Fort Myers across the six counties we cover.

Wastewater moved off site at short notice when a system or a plant cannot hold it.

Scope first, then the schedule

A public works call starts with scope. Tell us which lines, stations, streets, or sites need attention, what condition they are in, and when access is open. We can work from that information, plan the visit, and keep one point of contact for the department.

For planned work, a written scope can name the site, access point, and work window. That gives everyone the same starting point when more than one department or location is involved.

Line jetting uses high-pressure water to clear grease, roots, or buildup inside a pipe. A lift station is a pumping station that moves wastewater when gravity cannot carry it onward. For either job, the crew needs the location and the problem described clearly before work begins.

Work that keeps public sites moving

A catch basin is the box with a grate that collects rainwater and holds silt before it reaches a pipe. Catch basin cleaning takes that buildup out before it blocks the path for water. Hydro excavation uses water and vacuum instead of a bucket to uncover buried lines and cables.

Grading shapes the ground so water follows the intended slope. It can be part of a larger site plan or a focused correction at a public property. Emergency service covers the call that cannot wait for planned work. We offer 24/7 emergency service, with a real person answering at any hour.

One contact across six counties

Utility managers may have work in more than one place at once. Our crew is already in Lee, Collier, Charlotte, Hendry, Glades, and DeSoto counties, so the conversation starts with the site and the scope, not a handoff to another company.

Call (239) 225-2255. It is the direct office line, and a real person answers at any hour. We can talk through access, scheduling, and paperwork, then keep the next call connected to the same office.

Common questions

Can you work from our scope and schedule?

Yes. Start with the location, the condition, and the work your department needs covered. We can talk through the scope, agree on the visit plan, and keep one point of contact as the work moves forward.

Do you provide emergency service for municipalities?

Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency service, and a real person answers at (239) 225-2255. Tell the office what happened and where, and we will help identify the next step.

What is a lift station?

A lift station is a pumping station that moves wastewater when gravity cannot carry it onward. The crew can look at the pumps, floats, and panel and explain what the station needs.

What does hydro excavation mean?

Hydro excavation uses water and vacuum instead of a bucket to uncover buried lines and cables. It helps expose the work area when the location below ground needs to be understood first.

What is a catch basin?

A catch basin is a box with a grate that collects rainwater and holds silt before it reaches a pipe. Cleaning it keeps the basin from filling with the material that blocks the path for water.
