From power generation cooling ponds to professional athletic fields, Berger's team of skilled operators and seasoned project managers have the ability to deliver any specialty construction project.  With the combined efforts and collaboration of our excavating and utility divisions, Berger can deliver the most complex projects on time and within budget.

The key to any specialty construction project is planning.  Berger's Project Managers spend countless hours planning detailed schedules, which are reviewed with all field superintendents and foremen to ensure a precise and accurate delivery.  Planning of any specialty construction project begins in the bidding stage through open communication with the general contractor and/or owner.  As a subcontractor on many projects, Berger works closely with the general contractor and other subcontractors to coordinate scheduling in order to reduce any potential conflicts. 

It is this systematic approach to specialty construction projects which has led Berger to deliver all projects within or exceeding the project schedule.

Sample Projects:

• Mid-west Generation – As a general contractor this project required the removal of an existing fly-ash sediment pond lining and replacing the pond with a new lining. Several thousand tons of sand were removed from the existing lining and replaced after the new lining was installed.
• Schlesser Farm Lift Station (Long Grove, IL) – As a General Contractor this project involved the installation of a 30 foot deep lift station with a special corrosion resistant coated piping system. Many sections of the corrosion resistant pipe were directional drilled in order to minimize the restoration and disruption.
• Grayslake North High School (Grayslake, IL) – As a subcontractor this project required the installation of an extensive panel and under drain system for the new athletic field.
• Lutheran General Center Care (Park Ridge, IL) – As a subcontractor for all the site utilities, we installed a complex double stacked Storm TrapÆ system in the parking lot. This involved extensive staging of the trucks as the individual pieces for the system were delivered in a very congested area.
