It has expanded its services to include demolition, retaining walls, asphalt paving, and material processing in addition to its traditional water and wastewater infrastructure work. The company recently completed a large recycled water project involving excavation and the construction of a large steel water tank. TC Construction performed most of the work itself and is adapting to changing market conditions by diversifying its service offerings and transitioning processes.
