Safety: Putting People First
Safety is very important to our success, and we take it seriously. Eaton Construction has an excellent safety history, and we're committed to keeping high safety standards.

An Experienced Crew
Most of our employees have been with us for five years or more. Experienced crews know the equipment, the procedures and each other, and that is one of the best safety programs there is.
Owner in the Field
Our owner is on site every day. Decisions about the trench, the joint and the test are made by the owner himself, standing next to the work.
Testing Before Backfill
Lines are pressure-tested to spec before they are buried, so problems are found while they're easy to fix.
DOT-Registered Trucking
Our trucking operation is a registered interstate carrier (USDOT 1441252, MC-544645) and follows federal motor carrier requirements.
