What is dredging?
Another groundworks and excavation service, dredging is the process of removing gathered sediment from the floors or banks of water bodies. Specialist dredging equipment is used to create a vacuum that sucks up and pumps out debris.
By removing the accumulated debris, dredging will help restore your waterway to its original depth and condition. Dredging can also be used to get rid of any hazardous waste (pollutants and fly-tipped waste) or dead vegetation.
Our dredging services include:
- Environmental dredging
