Construction Dewatering
Dewatering is, "the removal of water from solid material or soil by wet classification, centrifugation, filtration, or similar solid-liquid separation processes. Removing or draining water from a riverbed, construction site, caisson, or mine shaft, by pumping or evaporation. This is often done during the site development phase of a major construction project due to a high water table. Usually involves the use of "dewatering" pumps.
(Wikipedia, 2008).
AQUATECH staff has vast experience in a wide range of constructions and contract dewatering services, groundwater control and fluid transfer projects throughout North America and for clients in all sectors of construction, mining industrial and environmental. We offer customized dewatering and drainage solutions for all geological settings along with comprehensive “turn-key” services and specialized dewatering & pumping equipment.
Understanding the demands of our evolving industry, and the requirement for more environmental considerations and regulation compliance, AQUATECH has developed an inventory of superior dewatering, pumping and related support equipment to facilitate the most demanding of dewatering projects. Whether in the most sensitive environmental setting or challenging geology, AQUATECH has the experience and proper equipment to support the end result required; utilizing the best dewatering technologies and techniques from throughout the world and in line with the demands for same; AQUATECH has and will continue to introduce better dewatering, pumping and support equipment to provide a better quality result to their clients.

Support Equipment
AQUATECH'S turn-key service requires an extensive support equipment arsenal which includes Specialized (Custom) Drill Rigs, Boom Trucks, Fleet of Support & Service Trucks, Track Mounted Excavators, Rubber Tire Loaders and Material Carriers such as Large Fork Lifts and more.
Our flag ship is our custom built wellpoint and eductor well drill rig. This drill rig, built specifically for wellpoint and eductor well installation, was engineered with construction sites in mind. The CAT Excavator carrier on the rig allows us access to sites without the need for extensive preparation as required for a rubber tire drill rig. The AQUATECH Drill was also designed to not only install but also develop the dewatering wells, and in our opinion, with productivity unsurpassed by anyone in the industry.
