When the busy construction season rolls in, every hour counts. Delays can snowball into costly overruns, missed deadlines, and frustrated clients. And one of the most underestimated threats to your project timeline? Water.
Water buildup can stall progress fast, from groundwater intrusion to unexpected flooding. That's where Piranha Pumps steps in. With submersible pumps, dewatering systems, and dredges built in the USA since 1961, we help contractors move water quickly and efficiently so that you don’t have to scramble.
Why Water Management Matters in Construction
From site prep to foundation work, water can wreak havoc on nearly every phase of a construction project. Standing water:
- Delays equipment and worker access
- Weakens soil compaction
- Damages materials and structures
- Increases safety hazards
Failing to manage water fast means wasting money every day your crew is sidelined.

After decades in the industry, we understand the urgency. Our submersible pumps and dewatering systems are engineered for high flow rates, easy deployment, and long-lasting performance in tough conditions. Key features include:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What size pump do I need for a construction site?
It depends on your flow rate needs and the type of water you're dealing with. For general dewatering, a 2" or 3" submersible pump is common. For heavy sediment or slurry, a trash pump or dredge may be better. Contact us for a quick sizing consult.
Can your pumps handle mud and debris?
Yes. Our dewatering and slurry pumps are designed to move sediment-heavy water without clogging, thanks to open impeller designs and heavy-duty materials.
Do you offer rentals or just sales?
We offer both. For short-term needs or one-off jobs, rentals can be a cost-effective way to get the equipment you need. If you have recurring needs, our mini-dredges are a popular choice for purchase. Take your solution with you wherever you need it, all season long.
