Prequalified before the outage window opens, producing before your first shift ends

Power Generation Hydrodemolition and Refractory Removal Contractor Serving Texas, Louisiana, and the Gulf Coast

Aggregate Technologies is the specialty concrete sub that power plant primes call for hydrodemolition, refractory removal, and selective demolition scopes, and has been for 29 years. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, with an office in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Aggregate Technologies works inside natural gas combined cycle plants, refinery cogeneration systems, and LNG terminal power units across the Gulf Coast and nationwide


When a prime has a concrete scope inside a power generation facility, every day of outage extension costs the owner real money, and that pressure flows straight to the sub. A specialty concrete contractor who isn't prequalified, isn't equipped for classified areas, or isn't ready to work shift schedules becomes the constraint nobody wants to explain


We show up prequalified, execute on your schedule, and don't require your superintendent to babysit us. That has been true for 29 years of power generation work, from Gulf Coast refineries and combined cycle plants to facilities across the continental United States.

What Prime Contractors Face on Power Generation Concrete Scopes

Outage windows don't flex

THE PROBLEM
Your sub's schedule problems become your schedule problems on outage work. A specialty concrete sub who isn't staged, prepped, and ready to produce on day one of the outage has already cost the project, even before anything goes wrong.
WITH US
Aggregate Technologies shows up staged, prepped, and producing.

Classified area work restrictions

THE PROBLEM
Many areas of power generation facilities prohibit hot work and spark-producing methods. If your sub plans to use conventional mechanical demolition and finds out it's not permitted on site, you're the one managing the variance request on a running clock.
WITH US
Aggregate Technologies can operate sparkfree.

Prime contractor compliance requirements

THE PROBLEM
Credential requirements vary by facility. ISNetworld, Avetta, and DISA aren't universal, but plenty of sites still ask for them. Aggregate Technologies keeps all three current so it's never a reason to hold up your schedule.
WITH US
Our credentials are current before you call us.

Aggregate Technologies' Power Generation Concrete Service Capabilities

From refractory removal at Gulf Coast refinery cogeneration units to cooling tower rehabilitation at combined cycle plants, Aggregate Technologies brings precision specialty concrete work to one of the most demanding facility environments in industrial construction.

Refractory removal

Boiler liners, furnace walls, and combustion chamber refractory reach the end of their service life. Aggregate Technologies removes deteriorated refractory completely and efficiently, preparing the substrate for relining without damaging the underlying steel or concrete shell. We have performed this work at petrochemical cogeneration facilities and steam generation units throughout Texas and Louisiana.

Cooling tower concrete rehabilitation

Cooling tower basin floors, fill support structures, and concrete shells deteriorate under constant wet-dry cycling and chemical exposure. Our hydrodemolition removes only the deteriorated concrete, leaving the sound substrate and rebar fully intact. No vibration, no structural risk to the tower itself.

Turbine and equipment foundation work

Removing and modifying equipment foundations in operating power plants demands precision cutting that doesn't transmit vibration to adjacent operating machinery. Wire sawing, wall sawing, slab sawing, core drilling, and hydrodemolition are our tools of choice here.

Selective demolition in restricted areas

Our robotically controlled selective demolition equipment reaches into confined spaces: beneath operating equipment, inside containment structures, and in areas inaccessible to conventional machinery. Our hydrodemolition systems can be operated remotely from hundreds of feet away. A variety of equipment configurations ensures that weight-restricted, underwater, or curved areas can be reached and completed without compromising adjacent systems.

Hydroblasting and surface preparation

Before new concrete or protective coatings are applied, surfaces must meet strict profile specifications. Aggregate Technologies' hydrodemolition can achieve consistent, clean surface profiles across large areas in a fraction of the time of mechanical methods.

[LINK PLACEHOLDER: ICRI CSP standards for hydrodemolition surface profiles. See Open Item O3.]

Core drilling for penetrations and conduit

Power plant renovations and upgrades constantly require new penetrations through thick structural concrete walls. Aggregate Technologies drills clean, accurate, controlled bores up to six feet in diameter without disrupting plant operations.

What You Get When Aggregate Technologies Is on Your Outage Scope

  1. Pre-mobilization scope coordination

    Once your outage schedule is set and Aggregate Technologies is confirmed on the concrete scope, we review your scope drawings, confirm area classification and access requirements, and coordinate equipment staging with your project team before the outage window opens. We don't use your first outage day as our orientation day. When the unit comes down, we are already producing.

  2. Compliance documentation provided on request

    ISNetworld, Avetta, HASC, and DISA documentation is available on request, whatever your site needs. Requirements vary by facility, so we keep these ready to go rather than claim blanket certification, and your procurement team won't need to chase us for it.

  3. 24/7 outage execution

    Our crews work shift schedules that match your outage plan. Our equipment is staged and our operators know it before they hit your gate. We bring production to your outage, not a learning curve.

  4. Closeout and demobilization, clean

    We close out to your requirements, can handle waste and water management, and demobilize on your timeline. We don't create punch list items for the next crew to inherit. When we're done, the scope is done.

Why Prime Contractors Put Aggregate Technologies on Power Scopes

▸ We have worked inside the fence:

Aggregate Technologies has operated inside power generation facilities across the Gulf Coast and Southeast, not just on perimeter or civil work. We know what plant safety culture looks and feels like from the inside.

▸ Refractory removal specialists:

Refractory and high-temperature concrete removal isn't a new service line for us. It's a documented specialty with nearly three decades of concrete cutting and removal expertise behind it.

▸ Spark-free method options:

Hydrodemolition produces no sparks, no open flame, and in most facility zones, no hot work permit requirement. Wire sawing gives us a second spark-free option when hydrodemolition isn't the right fit for the scope. That's not a selling point. It's a requirement, and we meet it.

▸ Outage schedule discipline:

We don't run over. Our project managers are accountable to the schedule at every phase, and we don't leave equipment reliability to chance on outagework.

▸ Prequalified and safety-minded:

Our safety culture was built in environments that don't tolerate shortcuts, and the 0.74 EMR reflects it. Credential documentation is kept current and ready for whatever your site requires.

▸ Federally registered small business:

Aggregate Technologies is a federally registered small business, eligible for setaside procurement on federal and federally regulated energy projects. SAM.gov active. CAGE Code 35VP7. NAICS 238990.

"Power generation outages don't have a margin for the wrong specialty sub. You need a contractor whose compliance is already current, whose equipment is already staged, and whose crew already knows how to work inside the fence. That's the only version of Aggregate Technologies that shows up on your outage scope."
