We specialize in installing and dismantling guardrails, and since 2011, we have expanded our services to include cable barriers. Today, we have a fully trained crew and specialized equipment ensuring top-notch protection for all road users.

Bridge
Repairs
Non-structural bridge repairs are essential for maintaining the longevity and safety of bridges without altering their fundamental design. These repairs focus on addressing surface damage, maintaining joints, and applying protective coatings.
The process begins with a thorough inspection to identify areas needing attention. Surface damage, such as cracks or potholes, is addressed by cleaning and filling with appropriate materials to restore a smooth driving surface.
Joint maintenance involves repairing or replacing expansion joints to accommodate movement and prevent water infiltration.
Protective coatings, including paint and sealants, are applied to guard against corrosion and weathering. These repairs are crucial for preserving the bridge’s integrity and ensuring safe passage for all drivers.
