SERVPRO Can Clean and Restore Damaged Heavy Civil Construction Projects

When civil construction projects experience damage and require specialty cleanup and restoration services, SERVPRO® can help. But what is a heavy civil construction project, exactly? And what are some examples? It turns out, in addition to highways and airports, heavy civil construction projects also involve government properties, an area of cleanup and restoration SERVPRO specializes in. 

What is Heavy Civil Construction? 

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the definition of heavy civil construction (or, as the bureau calls it, “heavy and civil engineering and construction”) is the following: 

“The Heavy and Civil Engineering Construction subsector comprises establishments whose primary activity is the construction of the entire engineering projects (e.g., highways and dams), and specialty trade contractors, whose primary activity is the production of a specific component for such projects.” 

Notably, the bureau indicates that heavy civil construction doesn’t always mean new projects from the ground up. These projects might also include maintenance, repairs and reconstruction, additions to existing structures, alterations, and more. SERVPRO is equipped to provide general and specialty cleanup, property repair, restoration, and reconstruction services to your heavy civil project at any time.
