Difficult Work
The challenging aspects of this job were not necessarily found in the original job plan, but the surprises along the way. We uncovered an old water pipe not in the building plans that was struck and burst. The old sewer line, expected to be made of iron, was made of clay and leaking raw sewage. These and other problems presented opportunities for us to show the customer that we know what needed to be done.

Done Right
Because of these and other unexpected difficulties, additional crews were assigned to the contract in order to remain on the original job schedule. We replaced the old clay pipes with new PVC pipes, capped off older pipes that needed to be sealed, and repaired cavities in the ground to make it stable again.

This story is a compilation of various projects for a utility company. We take pride in doing work that builds trust in our customers. The most fulfilling compliment we can receive is when a customer asks us to do another round of work.

Difficult Work
The projects for this customer consisted of the removal of lead based painted piping and asbestos contaminated materials in the water plants. GCS was responsible for removing the lead based painted materials and asbestos contaminated materials while the water plants were still in operation. As part of the projects GCS was responsible for building tunnels throughout the containment areas to maintain the customer's employee access to all vital areas of the water plant.

Done Right
GCS was required by the client to complete the water plant & multiple projects while maintaining a very high quality of workmanship. Our work performance for 2008 was so exceptional that we were awarded the Environmental Abatement Services Contract for the following year and were nominated and were presented with an award for our excellent cooperation and performance
