Field & Construction Services
Construction projects demand a wide range of specialized field services throughout every phase of active work. Riparia provides pre-construction and field support services to construction contractors, developers, and project owners to help them manage their sites, stay compliant, and deliver successful projects.
Everything Your Site Needs—One Contractor
From erosion control and Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) development to hydro-excavation, dewatering, and pipeline jetting, we bring an experienced crew and a new, well-maintained fleet to every job. Having one knowledgeable team that understands construction operations and the regulatory environment means fewer coordination obstacles and more time focused on getting the work done.
Our Construction & Field Services
Riparia offers a comprehensive suite of field services to support construction projects from pre-construction planning through site closeout.
-
SWPPP Development
Riparia develops project-specific SWPPPs pre-construction and provides the ongoing inspections required to keep the plan current and the site in compliance from groundbreaking through stabilization.
-
Erosion & Sediment Control
Our CESCL-certified staff installs, inspects, and maintains erosion control BMPs to protect exposed soils and prevent sediment from leaving the site during active construction.
-
Hydro-Excavation
We use vactor trucks with high-pressure water to safely excavate soil without damaging underground utilities—ideal for congested, confined, or hard-to-reach areas where conventional equipment can’t safely operate.
-
Potholing
Riparia uses hydro-excavation to expose and confirm the location, type, and depth of underground utilities before bulk excavation begins. This protects workers, prevents utility strikes, and keeps schedules on track.
-
Industrial Cleaning & Vacuuming
We clean industrial assets—pits, ponds, trenches, and tanks—using vacuum trucks and high-pressure water equipment, removing accumulated soot, ash, sludge, and other material from industrial facilities.
-
Tank Cleaning
Riparia cleans above-ground and underground tanks, vacuuming accumulated material and washing interior surfaces to restore capacity and prepare tanks for inspection, repair, or continued use.
-
Pond Dredging
We remove accumulated sediment from ponds using dredgers, excavators, and vacuum trucks to restore storage capacity and stormwater function to design standards.
-
Bioswale Rehabilitation
Riparia rehabilitates non-functional bioswales affected by structural breakdown, vegetation overgrowth, or sediment accumulation—restoring their capacity to filter and convey stormwater as designed.
-
Waste Removal & Disposal
We collect, haul, and dispose of bulk waste—sludges, sediment, and liquids—using vacuum trucks, pump trucks, and tankers, keeping construction sites and facilities clean and compliant.
-
Bulk Material Transport
Riparia hauls bulk materials such as soil and water to and from project sites, supporting construction and site preparation activities that require efficient material import, export, or relocation.
-
Pipe Jetting
We clean stormwater and storm/sewer pipe interiors to restore flow capacity and clear blockages caused by sediment, debris, or root intrusion.
-
Sweeping
Riparia deploys sweeper trucks to remove accumulated dust, sediment, and debris from facility streets and paved surfaces before they enter the stormwater system—an effective BMP for construction sites and industrial facilities.
-
Dewatering
We remove water from excavations and work areas using dewatering boxes, centrifuges, and tankers—drying out soil and material so construction activities can proceed safely and efficiently.
-
Excavation
Riparia performs excavation using heavy equipment for construction and site investigation purposes, including geotechnical test pits and site preparation work, with operators experienced in complex, multi-trade site conditions.
Why Construction & Field Services Matter
Construction projects are both demanding and complex, and the field services that support them are often the difference between a project that runs smoothly and one that doesn’t.
-
General Contractors Need Specialized Support
Active construction sites require a wide range of specialized services—from pre-construction compliance planning to dewatering and erosion control—that fall outside the scope of most general contractors.
-
One Source Simplifies Everything
Coordinating multiple vendors for erosion control, hydro-excavation, tank cleaning, and waste disposal creates administrative complexity. Riparia provides all of these services under one roof, with a single point of contact, which reduces overhead and keeps project coordination streamlined.
-
Field Services Are Foundational to Site Function
The full suite of field services provided by Riparia are essential to maintaining a functioning job site and a compliant stormwater system. Letting these activities lapse can result in site shutdowns, regulatory violations, and costly corrective work.
-
Regulatory Knowledge Keeps Your Crew Working
When issues arise on a job site, having a field services partner with deep familiarity with regulatory agencies and construction requirements can mean the difference between a brief delay and a prolonged work stoppage.
Experienced Crew & Management
Riparia’s field staff and project managers bring hands-on construction experience across a wide range of site conditions, project types, and regulatory environments. Our team knows what a working job site looks like and what it takes to keep one running while delivering successful outcomes.
Prompt Scheduling and a Single Point of Contact
We know that construction schedules don’t have much tolerance for delays in support services. Riparia prioritizes responsive scheduling and provides customers with a single point of contact for all services, so you spend less time coordinating and more time building.
Daily Work Logs & Transparent Reporting
Riparia provides daily work logs so customers can track exactly what was completed, when, and by whom. That documentation supports project management, regulatory recordkeeping, and accountability throughout the life of a project.
