Do you work in my state?
Dredge America works throughout the United States and we are available for work in offshore protected waters.
What is your minimum sized project?
Our smallest projects start between 100,000--$150,000 and we have worked on multi-million dollar projects.
How much do you charge per yard?
There is not a standard charge per cubic yard. The charge for your project will be based on a number of factors and we can give you a quick over-the-phone consultation to determine the best way to proceed with a full quote.
Do I have to have a permit to dredge?
How do I get a permit?
The need for a permit will be based on your state requirements and the project specifications. We can refer you to an engineering company that can assist with permitting or you can consult your regional Army Corps of Engineers office: www.usace.army.mil/
How do I know if I need mechanical or
hydraulic dredging?
Mechanical dredging involves the use of heavy equipment at the shoreline or working off a barge and may or may not involve draining a lake. Hydraulic dredging involves a dredge that floats on the water and pumps the material through a temporary pipeline to an off-site location, often several thousand feet away. This dredge acts like a giant floating vacuum removing sediment very precisely.
What if I only have a problem with weeds?
