Answering The Call

McGuire and Hester provided full emergency response services, including the installation of temporary bypass pumping systems, coordination with City of Davis operations crews, and the removal and replacement of two deep manhole structures. The depth and volume of flow in the trunk mains posed significant safety and logistical challenges, requiring rapid mobilization and adaptive field strategies.

Despite the complexity of the repair, McGuire and Hester crews maintained seamless coordination with city staff to stabilize the system quickly and minimize service disruption. Work was performed on an emergency basis under compressed timelines, with safety and quality at the forefront throughout the process.
