From sewer systems to flood control, water treatment to distribution, our utility market capabilities are engineered for excellence.

Sanitary & Storm Systems

Constructed to Control the Flow

We excavate, install, and reinforce the underground systems that keep city sanitary moving. Our crews construct with precision, delivering long-lasting sanitary and stormwater solutions including culverts, detention basins, and flood control systems designed to perform under pressure.

Whether it’s a high-capacity storm drain or a complex sanitary network, we deliver systems built to last and engineered to serve. Our teams specialize in the installation of water, sewer, and storm infrastructure that forms the backbone of modern development. From trenching and bedding to pipe laying and backfill, we deliver seamless utility installations that support long-term reliability and community growth. 

Water Treatment & Distribution

Water Systems That Work

Water is essential to life, and we build infrastructure that delivers it. With industrial-grade precision, our teams construct water and wastewater treatment plants and install distribution systems that communities depend on every day. Backed by extensive technical knowledge and a firm commitment to safeguarding public health, we dig deep to deliver systems you can count on, including:

  • Pump and lift stations
  • Reservoirs and water basins
  • Water treatment facilities
  • Wastewater treatment plants

Frequently asked questions

Want to know more about our utility work?

  • What kinds of training and certifications do employees in your utilities division hold?

    Most all of our crew members are OSHA trained as a competent person and trained in trench safety and confined space entry.

  • Does ESS ever install communications utilities like fiberoptics or phone lines?

    No, we primarily are focused on “wet utilities” such as sewer and water as well as some “dry utilities” such as electrical conduits and natural gas distribution.

  • How does ESS ensure compliance with environmental and safety regulations?

    We stay ahead of all compliance needed and adhere to local, state, and federal regulations. Safety isn’t just a box to check for us, it’s a culture we’ve built into every process.
