Northern Dewatering, Inc.

After 16 years of working for the largest dewatering contractor in the United States, John McShane founded Northern Dewatering, Inc. in 1984. Bolstered by a strong belief in integrity and customer service, John has built Northern Dewatering into one of the largest multi-faceted dewatering and bypass pumping companies in the Midwest and beyond. Northern Dewatering started as a pumping service company primarily involved in turnkey dewatering projects to the construction and mining markets in the region. Today, Northern Dewatering has successfully completed subsurface and above ground dewatering and sewer bypass pumping projects throughout the United States. Northern Dewatering is capable of subcontracting the full spectrum of dewatering and bypass pumping projects ranging from small wellpoint systems to complex deep well dewatering and sewer bypass pumping systems ranging from 100 GPM (gallons-per-minute) to over 100 MGD (millions-gallons-per day).
