Founded in 2001, BLD Services is the nation’s largest manufacturer and installer of cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lateral liners, operating throughout the Central and Eastern U.S. In addition, the company’s underground utilities group is one of the largest water pipeline service providers on the Louisiana Gulf Coast.

BLD will operate independently with the support of Azuria’s resources. President Dan Wager and Vice President Jacob Trapani, Sr. will continue to run the business.
“BLD’s reputation is unmatched, and its teams include top industry talent,” said Rob Tullman, president and CEO of Azuria Water Solutions. “The company brings several important capabilities to Azuria’s growing list of services.”
