PURIS acquires Creekside, expanding trenchless pipeline services
PURIS announced today the completion of the acquisition of Creekside. Creekside, through its Insight Pipe and IPC Services brands, is an infrastructure and environmental services provider with customers throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest. Creekside specializes in trenchless pipeline rehabilitation services for wastewater and stormwater sewer applications. Located in Harmony, Pa., Creekside offers CIPP installation, cleaning, CCTV inspections, and ancillary services to municipal customers as well as specialized cleaning and fluid hauling services to industrial end-markets.
"We are thrilled to welcome Mike and the entire Creekside team to the PURIS family," said Mick Fegan, CEO of PURIS. "For over 30 years, Creekside has delivered exceptional technical services to its customers. In combining our companies, we will continue to provide our collective customers with an enhanced array of capabilities across stormwater, wastewater and potable water applications. This acquisition advances our efforts to be the provider of choice for underground pipeline rehabilitation services."
"PURIS is the ideal partner for Creekside as we look to the next phase of growth for our company," added Mike Marburger, founder and President of Creekside. 'Since our founding, we have cultivated a culture rooted in service, quality, and safety. The PURIS team shares a clear alignment with these principles, and I believe the combination of our companies will strengthen our collective efforts as we move forward."
Creekside represents PURIS' first strategic acquisition since the JFLCO-led recapitalization of the business in 2024 via a single asset continuation fund. "Creekside's capabilities and synergistic fit are emblematic of our strategic priorities as we augment organic growth with a tailored acquisition strategy. We look forward to supporting future acquisitions with our refreshed capital structure," said Dave Thomas, Managing Director at JFLCO.
