Gunderboom® Marine Construction, Management, Salvage, Commercial Diving, and Dredging

Based in Anchorage Alaska, Gunderboom and its Underwater Construction division have provided Marine Services in some of the world's most challenging environments. Founded in 1974, Underwater Construction’s primary objective has been to offer marine construction, management, subarctic and arctic piledriving, commercial diving, fabrication, repair, maintenance, salvage, and demolition services. These services have been provided in the harsh environments of the Bearing Sea and the Arctic Ocean.

One of our most recent Marine Construction and Management projects was the design-build of an extensive structure at the Lovett Generating Station in New York on the Hudson River. This structure was required for the installation of a Gunderboom Marine Life Exclusion System. This project was performed under New York winter conditions and completed ahead of schedule and below budget.

Our salvage experience originated in Alaska with projects on the Aleutian Chain, and significant large scale disasters like the Exxon Valdez oil spill where we were one of the “first responders” with divers, vessel and barge support, ROV services and logistical support. We offer salvage services, which often include the use of our Engineered Aquatic Filter Barriers to keep contaminants and environmental pollutants contained throughout the salvage operation. Our Mandeville, Louisiana office has a primary focus on the Gulf States cleanup and restoration effort.
