vessel voids & black, grey, water tanks cleaning & refinishing

This is required once the coating or interior lining system fails, the surface below becomes exposed to the tank’s atmosphere and tank contents resulting in corrosion and oxidisation/rust. Once the metal begins to deteriorate it is important not to delay the repairs. The cost to repair a tank lining is a fraction of the replacement cost. All refinishing works are completed by qualified operators who are refinishing certified.

If just cleaning is required, we use high pressure steam in combination with applicable chemicals to remove any kind of contaminants. All residual liquid is also disposed leaving areas dry and ready for survey or hot works.
