Driveway Culverts in Dunkerton, IA
Waterloo Culvert Company works driveway and field entrances in Dunkerton, Iowa. We put in new culverts, replace pipe that is done, clear pipe that is only full, rebuild ends the water took out, and rock the outlet so it stops digging. Licensed and insured in Iowa.
Dunkerton lies northeast of Waterloo in Black Hawk County, out along the route Iowa Highway 281 takes east from town and then north. It has been an incorporated town since eighteen ninety nine, and it is small. What surrounds it is gravel section-line road with deep ditches, and that is the working ground for this trade.
Gravel roads feed their own shoulders into your culvert. Every rain moves a little stone off the road edge and down into the inlet, year after year, until the pipe is carrying half of what it was built to carry. That is why we look at cleaning before we look at replacing. An hour with a machine at the inlet costs a fraction of an entrance, and plenty of pipes people have written off are simply full.
Where the pipe really is finished, the giveaway is at the bottom. Metal rusts from the invert up, so the floor goes while the crown still looks fine. We show you what we find, and if it is a replacement we size the new pipe off the ditch rather than off the old one. Ends get end sections. The outlet gets angular rock on fabric. The approach gets rebuilt so it does not send its own water back down onto the pipe.
