What is dewatering & why is it critical?

Dewatering lowers groundwater levels to create safe, stable, and dry excavations. Uncontrolled water leads to soil instability, trench collapse, project delays, and OSHA violations.

Why it's necessary:

  • Safe excavation below the natural water table
  • Stabilization of trench walls & utility corridors
  • Protection of foundations, pipelines, lift stations, & structural footings
  • Prevention of costly schedule slip from groundwater infiltration

    Wellpoint Dewatering Systems

    Best suited for shallow-to-moderate groundwater drawdown, utility corridors, deep foundations, and excavations in sandy or silty soils.

    Our fleet & equipment:

    - Rotary lobe wellpoint pumps
    - Piston pumps
    - Double diaphragm pumps
    - Extensive range of wellpoint equipment and prepacked systems including riser pipes, header pipes, swing joints, and more.

    Key advantages:

    - Continuous groundwater control
    - Highly effective in sand and silty soil conditions
    - Ideal for utility construction and shallow aquifer applications

FAQs about dewatering and our service

With strategically located branches and an extensive rental fleet, Holland Pump can rapidly mobilize equipment for both planned and emergency projects. You can explore our US network of branches here.

At Holland Pump, we offer both rentals and full turnkey services.

Services include engineering, installation, startup, monitoring, maintenance, and demobilization, as well as standalone equipment rentals.

Our fleet is equipped with remote monitoring, backup systems, telemetry alerts, and on-call service teams to ensure rapid response and minimal downtime. If a pump fails overnight, we'll know about it.

Yes. We can assist with water quality testing, discharge analysis, and treatment solutions to help meet permit and environmental compliance requirements.

Whilst permit responsibilities are typically determined among the owner, contractor, and dewatering provider, Holland Pump can assist with technical documentation and permit support when required. We have decades of experience working with authorities.

We have a broad range of systems available based on your requirements. These include: 

  • Diesel-powered systems
  • Electric-powered systems
  • Hydraulic drive systems
  • Generator-supported operations

Our expert engineers assess groundwater conditions, soil permeability, excavation dimensions, infiltration rates, required drawdown levels, rainfall impacts, and safety factors to calculate the appropriate pumping capacity.

Because we have a network of branches across the US, our engineers have specific regional knowledge and understand the geography of your site.
