DREDGING AMERICA'S CRITICAL WATERWAYS

HISTORY
Dredge Marion Circa 1935

For nearly a century, Cottrell Contracting has been a trusted leader in dredging and marine construction. Over its 97-year history, the company has successfully completed hundreds of beach nourishment projects, playing a vital role in safeguarding coastal communities. With more than 100 million people in the United States living within ten miles of a shoreline, protecting life and property is essential. The most cost-effective and efficient way to provide this protection is through beach nourishment.
Cottrell Contracting performs both new work and maintenance dredging projects while also specializing in habitat creation and environmental restoration initiatives. These projects not only protect infrastructure and communities but also promote long-term ecological health.
Through strong leadership, a steadfast commitment to safety, and the integration of innovation and technology, Cottrell Contracting is well-positioned to continue meeting the evolving needs of its customers—today and for generations to come.
