Emergency Repairs*

Infrastructure fails on its own schedule. A landslide closes a highway on a Friday night. A 48-inch main bursts under a downtown street. A flood undermines a bridge pier. Owners need a contractor who answers the phone and arrives with equipment, material and a plan.

Ready before the call

We keep an emergency response team of 40 field employees on rotation, with dedicated trucks, excavators, pumps, traffic control supplies and shoring equipment. Our yards in Vancouver, Bend and Boise maintain stocks of rock, pipe fittings, repair clamps and temporary barrier. For contracted on-call agencies, we hold pre-negotiated rate sheets so work can start immediately.

What we do on arrival

The first job is stabilization: protect life and property, stop the failure from getting worse and restore access. Our emergency lead coordinates with the incident commander, engineers and utilities on site. We document the work for FEMA and state emergency management reimbursement from the first hour, with photographs, daily force-account records and equipment logs.

After the emergency, we can transition to permanent repair under the same agreement or compete for the design-build follow-on project. We have responded to more than 110 call-outs since 2016.
