Granite Environmental, Inc. is dedicated to providing superior performance products that get the job done well. We work closely with our client project teams to determine the best deployment configuration and approach to the site specific application.

In order to provide an accurate assessment for our clients we normally will request the following information:

• site conditions

• water velocity

• waves (height, frequency, etc)

• wind speed and direction

• tides

• soil type (contaminated?)

• project duration

• site specific requirements and project specifications

In addition, if the project is environemental remediation, like pcb (heavy metals) removal, capping or brownfields (coal tar)site development we may suggest a site survey/walk to get an in-depth understanding of the entire requirements.

Our dedicated staff are capable of project supervision and can offer installation assistance and guidance as required on a per diem basis.
