K.R. SWERDFEGER has extensive experience in a wide range of trenchless technologies. It has become the preferred method for the installation of new facilities and rehabilitation of existing. Minimal or non-disruptive trenchless technology is fast and traditionally lower in cost than conventional methods.

Trenchless applications include Pipe Lining, Pipe Bursting, Horizontal Directional Drilling, Pipe Ramming, Auger/Rock Boring, Conventional Slip-Lining, Internal Pipe Joint Rehabilitation, Point Repairs, Vacuum Excavation, Manhole Rehabilitation and Special Design/Build Rehabilitation Projects.

Quadex Aluminaliner is a fiber reinforced, 100% calcium aluminate mortar designed to protect against hydrogen sulfide gas, add structural integrity and stop infiltration.
Raven 405 is a solvent-free 100% solids, ultra high build epoxy coating with high physical strength. 405 exhibits superior bond to concrete, steel, masonry, fiberglass and other surfaces.

The HydraTite internal seal system is a mechanical remediation for pipe joint repairs. The system consists of a rubber seal that is held in place by stainless steel retaining bands. Each seal is custom made for each project. The seals can be interlocked to span long lengths of pipe or a backing band included to remediate pressure piping and cooling water expansion joints. The HydraTite Sealing system is NSF/ANSI 61 certified for drinking water.

Pipe Bursting is applicable when the existing pipe to be replaced is partially collapsed and/or where a new, larger replacement pipe is required.
Auger Boring is used where accurate grade is important for the installation of utilities under roads, irrigation canals, waterways, railroads, and other locations.
Pipe Ramming is a fast, cost-effective approach to placing a casing pipe under roads, waterways, railroads, and other sites.

Sliplining is a cost effective way to rehabilitate deteriorating sewer lines without having to setup expensive by-pass systems.

Installation of utility lines is accomplished fast and efficient using directional drilling.
