At Environmental Water Services, we empower local municipalities with hands-on wastewater maintenance and emergency repairs, ensuring your facility gets back online efficiently and under budget, so you can focus on all the other tasks that help strengthen your community.
When your municipal water or wastewater plant experiences a failure, you need a highly capable, local partner who treats your town's infrastructure as carefully as you do. Whether it's a routine maintenance fix or a complex system failure, Environmental Water Services acts as a wastewater partner to your city, ensuring your utilities stay compliant and operational.
At Environmental Water Services, we believe that system troubleshooting should eliminate waste, not create it. That's why we don't just blindly swap out expensive parts until something works (a tactic that costs the client significantly more money). Instead, our troubleshooting relies on a strict, proven process of elimination.
From checking if an impeller spins freely to testing the electrical panel to see if a contactor is blown, we conclusively prove what is broken before we ever suggest a replacement. Once we diagnose the issue, we provide your city with multiple repair alternatives and transparent cost information, helping you make an informed, budget-friendly decision based on comprehensive, conclusive data.
Many large contractors ignore smaller repair projects or immediately call in outside welders and plumbers, passing inflated costs onto local taxpayers. At Environmental Water Services, our trained personnel tackle complex repairs directly, saving cities a significant amount of money.
For major emergencies like water main breaks, we utilize an exclusive network of pre-vetted vendors, including electricians and excavators, who are contractually obligated to respond immediately to our emergency calls. We also make sure you understand exactly what you paid for, providing detailed maintenance reports that offer total transparency into all the work we've performed.
Dealing with an unexpected system breakdown can put city leaders in a bind. Our goal is to educate our clients as much as help them, which is why we're always available to answer all your wastewater management questions whenever you need a little guidance.
We use a strict process of elimination to diagnose plant issues. We rigorously test components, like pumps and electrical panels, to conclusively prove what is broken before recommending any repairs or replacements.
We handle the vast majority of our system repairs and heavy maintenance in-house, saving cities significant money. If an extreme emergency like a water main break occurs, we use an exclusive, pre-vetted network of local excavators, plumbers, and electricians who are contractually obligated to respond immediately.
We manage everything from bad pumps and plugging or ragging issues to blown contactors, leaking seals, and water main breaks. We offer 24-hour call-out coverage to ensure your facility stays operational.
We document all our repairs with photos and compile detailed maintenance reports. We then attend your monthly city council meetings in person to explain the work done, answer questions, and provide complete transparency.
We know that managing your town's wastewater infrastructure can be overwhelming, especially when you need immediate assistance. That's where we come in, helping you swiftly assess your wastewater mechanical issues and implement the right repair plan that aligns with your scheduling and budget needs. Here is what you can expect when partnering with us:
We dispatch to your facility to evaluate the breakdown, using a rigorous process of elimination to find the root cause of the problem.
We provide the city with multiple repair alternatives and cost information so you can make an informed decision without high-pressure sales tactics.
Our certified team completes the heavy mechanical or light electrical repairs right on the spot to get your system back online swiftly and cost-effectively.
We attend your next monthly city council meeting to present a comprehensive, photo-documented report of the repair to ensure total transparency.
We take pride in providing a customized approach that larger outfits simply cannot match. By immersing ourselves in the towns we serve and attending local city council meetings, we’re able to build stable, long-term water and wastewater management partnerships.
