Environmental Responsibility

One of our core values is taking responsibility – not only in the way we work, but in taking care of the world we live in. Every excavation project carries ecological risks, so we take proactive steps to prevent damage. Our team ensures proper erosion control and stormwater management, meeting Virginia DEQ and West Virginia DEP standards.

We implement drainage systems and sediment filters to protect waterways and reduce our carbon footprint. By actively monitoring and managing these factors, we minimize environmental impact and uphold our commitment to sustainability and community leadership.

Our dedication extends to specialized services that go the extra mile in protecting and preserving our environment.

Committed to reducing our environmental impact on every single project.

In compliance with Virginia DEQ and West Virginia DEP standards, we have several permit-holding RLD’s (Responsible Land Disturbers) on our crew that help to conduct proper erosion control installation and maintenance while under construction. Our main goal is to reduce our carbon footprint.

DEQ Compliance Guarantee

H&W Constructions follows a firm DEQ Compliance Guarantee, which ensures that all our projects adhere to the rigorous environmental guidelines set by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) and West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). Our team is well-versed in the specific DEQ/DEP regulations and standards applicable to construction projects in Virginia and West Virginia. We pledge to maintain strict compliance with these guidelines throughout every phase of our work, ensuring that we protect and preserve the natural environment.

Geo Membrane Lines

Impermeable Geo Membrane Lines offer a solution when you need to seal and hold water in a pond. They can additionally be used for primary and secondary containment of liquid to keep things out of groundwork. H&W has installed many of these lines in both aboveground and below ground ponds.

Eco-Friendly Paving

Our commitment to sustainability drives us to use environmentally conscious paving practices that minimize the impact on the ecosystem. Permeable pavers offer a hardscape option to functional outdoor spaces, whether it’s a patio, driveway, or walkway. These pavers allow water to pass through them that would regularly go to a stormwater system mitigating floods, then strain to the storm system and prevent pollutant contamination. By selecting recycled materials for permeable paving options, we ensure that our paving projects align with green principles.

Bio Detention Ponds

We understand the importance of sustainable water management, and one way to achieve this is to install an underground detention pond. These are utilized to detain stormwater and then slowly release stormwater. By doing this, it lessens the amount of water that would be released into waterways that may cause flooding or stream erosion. These structures are usually installed under parking lots to save room when confined to limited development space.

Excavation with a commitment to preserving the world around us.

We actively monitor and mitigate environmental factors to minimize our impact. As a responsible company and community leader, we prioritize protecting and preserving our environment for future generations.
