About Fer-Pal Infrastructure
FER-PAL Construction Ltd. was established in 1986 in Toronto, ON to provide municipalities throughout Canada and the United States with watermain rehabilitation services using trenchless technology.
By utilizing a Cured-In-Place-Pipe (CIPP) which is inserted into existing watermains, FER-PAL fixes deteriorating pipes by essentially creating a new pipe within a pipe. Limited digging is involved in this trenchless process and the result is a watermain repair that is cost-effective, traffic conducive, environmentally sound, and has limited infrastructure impacts to surrounding communities and businesses.
FER-PAL began expansion into the US market in 2007, opening an office in Taylor, MI. In 2013 the trenchless technology firm opened a Head Quarters in Elgin, IL to support it's further growth in the trenchless market place. Officially opening on Oct. 15, 2013, the Elgin grand opening was celebrated by Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn, Mayor A. George Pradel of Naperville and Mayor Dave Kaptain of Elgin. With this expansion, FER-PAL can better service it's clients across the Midwest in states such as Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin.
FER-PAL is a three time winner of the Ontario Regional Common Ground Alliance Excavator of the Year Award (Water/Sewer), most recently winning in 2011. FER-PAL has also won awards internationally as they recently won the 2010 and 2011 APWA Metro Detroit Branch's Project of the Year as well as the 2011 City Engineers of Minnesota's Project of the Year Award.
