South Florida's Most Trusted Underground Utilities Service

Underground Utilities Services

At Ironclad Engineering, we know that what happens beneath the surface is just as important as what’s above it. That’s why we offer reliable, code-compliant underground utility installation and repair throughout South Florida. Need help with your underground utilities? Whether it’s for new projects, upgrading your current system, or emergency fixes, we’ll make sure your water, sewer, and storm systems are done properly, on time, and built to last.

We specialize in domestic water mains, sanitary sewers, storm drainage systems, and force mains, with a track record that speaks for itself. Developers, municipalities, contractors, and property owners rely on us for our no-nonsense approach, solid craftsmanship, and deep understanding of local codes and conditions.

Why Land Clearing Matters

Most of the infrastructure that keeps a site running is unseen, but when it’s installed poorly, it becomes everyone’s problem. Think sinkholes, backups, flooding, costly code violations. That’s why choosing an experienced underground utility contractor is critical.

At Ironclad Engineering, we don’t cut corners. From trenching and pipe laying to tie-ins, testing, and inspections, our utility crews are trained, licensed, and equipped to handle all phases of underground utility installation. With decades of combined experience in civil site construction and utility infrastructure, we know how to do the job once and do it right.

Domestic Water Main Installation

Clean, pressurized water is non-negotiable for any commercial or municipal site. Whether it’s for fire protection, potable supply, or service lines, we install water mains that are properly sized, securely laid, and built to deliver reliable service for years to come.

We handle:

New water main installation
Water service tie-ins
Backflow prevention
Fire line installation
Pressure testing and chlorination
Metering infrastructure

We understand how critical water access is for permitting and inspections. Our team works quickly and efficiently, using materials and methods that meet or exceed Florida Building Code and utility district standards.

Drainage / Storm Sewer Systems

Florida gets rain, and lots of it! That makes stormwater management a key part of any construction site. Improper drainage leads to flooding, pavement damage, and erosion issues. That’s why we take drainage seriously.

Our stormwater services include:

Storm sewer installation
RCP, HDPE, and PVC piping
Catch basin and manhole installation
Exfiltration trench systems
Outfall structures and headwalls
Retention/detention systems
Underground stormwater chambers

We make sure your site drains properly, complies with local stormwater regulations, and passes inspection with no headaches. Our team designs and installs drainage systems that move water efficiently, handle heavy storm events, and prevent standing water or runoff damage.

Sanitary Sewer Installation

When it comes to sanitary sewer systems, you need something you can depend on. These systems need to be watertight, properly sloped, and built to last for years to come. Any mistake underground can lead to costly backups, environmental issues, or even site shutdowns.

Ironclad Engineering handles:

Gravity sewer installation
Manholes and cleanouts
Sewer laterals and mainlines
Pipe bedding and slope grading
Leak testing and video inspection
Lift station integration

We understand the importance of grade accuracy, soil conditions, and material selection in sanitary systems. Whether it’s new construction or sewer system replacement, we make sure everything flows as it should, no pun intended!

Sewer Force Main Construction

Some sites don’t have the elevation needed for gravity sewer systems. That’s where force mains come in. These pressurized sewer lines move wastewater uphill using pumps and lift stations, and they need to be installed with absolute precision.

Our force main services include:

Pressure-rated sewer main installation
Air release and isolation valves
Thrust block construction
Directional drilling and trenching
Tie-ins to pump stations and treatment facilities
Pressure testing and system startup

We’ve installed countless force mains for commercial developments, industrial facilities, and municipalities across South Florida. We make sure each component is properly engineered and installed to handle the pressure.

Our Approach: Coordination, Compliance, and Communication

Underground utility work doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It intersects with site grading, paving, landscaping, and building construction. That’s why we focus heavily on coordination and communication, working closely with engineers, GCs, project managers, and inspectors to avoid delays and keep everyone on the same page.

Every utility project starts with a detailed plan. From layout and trenching to testing and final connections, we handle the process from end to end. We also navigate:

Permitting and inspection requirements
Utility conflict resolution
Environmental and groundwater concerns
Tight jobsite constraints
Traffic flow and site access during work

Built for South Florida Conditions

South Florida presents unique challenges with its sandy soils, high groundwater, and dense development. Not every contractor knows how to deal with them, but we do.

From smart trenching techniques to the right materials for corrosive environments, we build underground utility systems designed for local conditions. We also stay current on local codes and utility specs, so your project doesn’t get hung up on last-minute revisions or rework.

We’ve worked on everything from city infrastructure projects and commercial parks to multifamily developments and large-scale site retrofits. No matter the project size, our approach is the same: plan thoroughly, execute cleanly, and deliver a product that performs for decades.
