YOUR TRUSTED PARTNER FOR ALL YOUR GRADING, EXCAVATION, AND RAIL MAINTENANCE NEEDS.

Civil Construction

Cronin Civil and Rail handles civil construction across western PA including waterline, sanitary sewer, pump stations, retaining walls, parks, storm restoration, and wetland creation. 

Civil Construction & Earthwork

Most civil work never gets seen. It sits underground, behind walls, beneath the parks people walk through every day. But when it’s done wrong, everyone notices.

We dig, we grade, we lay pipe, we build structure. Our civil construction company’s work spans across western Pennsylvania for municipalities, developers, and public agencies who can’t afford to do a job twice.

Waterline

We install and replace water infrastructure, including mains, service connections, hydrants, and valves, for both new development and existing municipal systems. All installations are tested to meet local pressure requirements and code specifications.

Sanitary Sewer

Sanitary sewer work is methodical. Our sewage contracting services cover the installation of mainlines, laterals, manholes, and cleanouts with a focus on long-term performance and system integrity. We coordinate directly with engineers and inspectors through every phase, because there’s no room for shortcuts on a sanitary system.

Pump Stations

We construct new pump stations and rehabilitate existing systems, including wet wells, force mains, electrical tie-ins, and control systems. A pump station failure can disrupt all upstream operations, so we design and build every system with a focus on reliability, resilience, and continuous performance.

Commercial Retaining Walls

Retaining walls hold back earth, support roads, and protect infrastructure. We build them for commercial sites, highway projects, and public works. We construct retaining wall systems using segmental block, poured concrete, and MSE solutions in accordance with project specifications. Our team manages the full scope of work, including grading, drainage, backfill, and wall construction.

Public Parks

Parks look simple from the surface. Underneath, there’s grading, drainage, utility work, and site prep that has to be right before a single bench goes in. We do the heavy civil work for municipalities and park authorities. 

Storm Restoration

When storm damage compromises critical infrastructure such as a culvert failure, slope instability, or roadway erosion, a timely response is essential. Our team mobilizes quickly to perform culvert replacement, slope stabilization, roadway reconstruction, and debris removal. Every repair is executed with a focus on long-term durability and structural integrity.

Wetland Creation

Development offsets and environmental mitigation require the construction of wetlands that meet both design intent and regulatory standards. We execute each phase with precision, including excavation to design grade, placement of hydric soils, coordination of native plantings, and establishment of proper site hydrology.
