Expanding infrastructure to support community growth and development and rehabilitating facilities to extend water asset lifecycles

As communities grow with new development, so does the need for expanded infrastructure. Garver is committed to delivering the most advanced technologies to update and expand collection and distribution systems. Garver has experience in planning, modeling, design, and construction observation that includes new design and advanced rehabilitation methods.

Rehabilitation of lift stations, pump stations, and storage tanks can extend the lifecycle of your water assets. For rehabilitation of sewer lines, our staff investigates the feasibility and cost effectiveness of dig and replace versus trenchless techniques, such as sliplining and pipe bursting. Garver also helps clients obtain construction permits, utility coordination, and financial program assistance.

Pumping Efficiency and Optimization For Pump and Lift Stations

We evaluate pumps for their efficiency and then design improvements that optimize their performance and increase system efficiency.

Storage Tanks

We help clients determine whether they need to improve an existing storage tank or design a new one, and these services include ground storage tanks and elevated storage tanks.

Planning and Modeling Services

Planning with detailed models can inform clients of system flow patterns and identify the necessary improvements to keep their system prepared for infrastructure growth needs.

Right-Of-Way and Easement Coordination

During preliminary design, our staff determine the right-of-way and easement acquisitions that will be necessary for the project and coordinate efforts in the project.

Trenchless Construction Methods

To save costs and mitigate impact, our team evaluates the best construction methods for infrastructure and considers trenchless construction where possible to reduce cost and impact.

Rehabilitation

Our rehabilitation services cover a wide range, from pipe bursting to facility rehabilitation and capacity expansions, while limiting capital costs and extending the lifecycle of assets.
