EQUIPMENT
SDS utilizes a variety of different equipment depending on the type of the work being completed. We are constantly updating, maintaining, and acquiring new gear to ensure we have the tools to get the job done.
Demolition/Construction
Although standard hand tools can be used in some instances, the demanding underwater environment requires specialized and modified equipment. Equipment can range from battery powered tools for smaller/residential work to pneumatic and hydraulic powered tools for commercial applications.
2019 brought record high water levels in the Great Lakes which has necessitated the removal of docking and other structures that has become submerged.
Battery powered angle grinder.
Pneumatic angle grinder for heavy duty use.
Communications
SDS uses full face masks and hard hat equipment with hardwire communications. Communication while underwater enhances safety and efficiency while also allowing the diver to keep the customer informed of the progress/conditions of a particular job on a continual basis.
Digital Photography and Drone Services
High definition digital photo/video are used during inspections to document damage and condition of hulls, props, seawalls, water intakes, aging docking, etc. Copies of all photos/videos are immediately supplied to the customer on site to allow quick assessment and diagnosis. Aerial and underwater drones also allow extended photography and inspection services when needed.
Lift Bags and Recovery Gear
SDS uses a variety of rigging and lifting gear equipped with thousands of pounds of lift for equipment recovery.
