In 1989, Aidan Carolan founded Melcar after emigrating from Ireland, initially working on civil construction projects in New York City. Recognizing the need for safer, more efficient methods to install pipelines and conduits, he embraced trenchless technology, establishing Melcar as a leader in horizontal directional drilling. Over the years, Melcar expanded its capabilities to include auger boring, tunneling, and more, evolving into a full-service trenchless contractor. Today, Melcar is a turnkey infrastructure development company, driven by its guiding principles and commitment to sustainable growth.
