OUR SERVICES
Diverse solutions tailored to your every need
Building bridges and roadwork is our most notable area of expertise. Hemlock Construction has been building roads since 1972 and bridges since 1998. Our staff's portfolios of work include notable projects such as the Route 2 Flyover in East Hartford, CT and the Founders Bridge over the Connecticut River in Hartford.
From the beginning, water and sewer line installations were the backbone of Hemlock Construction Company’s strengths. Founder Dick Traub’s experience as a sewer and water line installer was a cornerstone the company was built on. The company took on the most difficult of sewer and water installations back in the 1970’s and 1980’s when much of the main trunk line work was being constructed. From there our experience and capabilities continued to grow.
Today Hemlock Construction is considered one of the most experienced sewer contractors in Connecticut and has the knowledge and equipment to install the most difficult of pipe installations. Hemlock Construction is invited to bid by owners on many water and sewer installations each year. When the extremely difficult projects and problems arise, Hemlock is selected to provide input on the constructability.
Over the last 40 years Hemlock Construction Co. has had many opportunities to build, expand and /or renovate many athletic and recreation facilities throughout Connecticut. These projects are particularly rewarding as they usually involve helping a town build something significant for their community.

Residential development has a large part in Hemlock Construction’s work profile. From the onset of the company in 1972 to now, Hemlock Construction has performed work for some of the most prominent developers and builders in the state. Hemlock has earned a top-notch reputation in this field and is continually recommended and awarded work from repeat customers, design engineers, and town municipalities.
Over the past decade, Hemlock has refurbished and enlarged dams for the Torrington Water Company in Torrington, Goshen, and Norfolk. Hemlock has also rejuvenated and updated a hydro-electric dam alongside WWS Wasserkraft in Collinsville CT.
Hemlock Construction has completed start to finish, the construction of a hydro-electric dam incorporating water-flow management during hurricane conditions, cast in place spillways, foundations, and fish ladders. As an additional part of our work we assisted the owners in lifting and installing mechanical equipment including the turbine, generator, electrical equipment and water control gates.Hemlock Construction has installed underground power, telephone cable, and fiber optic cable conduits throughout Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. While utility conduit and structure installation is included in the scope of our development package, Hemlock Construction also installs utility structure on its road and bridge projects and for utility companies directly in conjunction with our affiliate company, Hemlock Directional Boring.
Hemlock Construction has performed environmental cleanup on industrial sites all across Connecticut. The scope of the work has included the isolation, excavation removal and disposal of contaminated soils, the installation of soil liquid and vapor recovery systems, soil replacement and restoration, and test pits and investigation.
