There are many reasons why a cold water tank needs repair.
It could be leaking after years of corrosion. Or sediment build-up from steel corrosion could be causing water samples to fail. Or the tank no longer complies with HSE regulations for stored water. Deteriorating mastic, erosion, and bacterial growth are other common problems.
Whatever the reason, Cold Water Storage has a solution. In this blog, we’re going to discuss our cold water tank repairs service, explain our process and outline why you should choose us for your water tank repair.
For more than 15 years, Cold Water Storage has been providing water tank repairs, relines and replacement services. If your tank is structurally sound, then we will always suggest a water tank reline, repair or refurbish, as this is the more sustainable option and it will save you money.
Aside from working to any requirements or constraints you have, we also meet regulations set out by the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) and HSE.
Our team will first complete a comprehensive survey to assess the tank and the damage before providing you with our expert recommendations.
Where possible, we will also suggest a repair rather than a replacement. We have dedicated in house project managers who will liaise with you throughout, develop Risk Assessments and Method Statements and provide a timetable for delivery.
After discussing the process and answering any questions, we will go ahead with the water tank repair and reline. After any repairs have been carried out, we will reline the tank with a WRAS approved solvent-free polyurethane coating.
This flexible coating has been specifically designed for relining potable and drinking water tanks. Or we could use a recently developed lining system – spray-applied Polyurea. This clever lining system covers a wide area quickly and is touch dry in just 5 seconds.
With zero risk of cracking or failure, this WRAS approved and Regulation 31/DWI approved system will dramatically lengthen the lifespan of your water tank.
Upon completion of the water tank repair and reline, we will provide signed paperwork and a full completion report with photographic evidence. This provides our clients with peace of mind that the job has been carried out to the highest of standards.
Whatever cold water storage tank lining system we use, you can be confident that it will provide excellent protection against corrosion and erosion. We are so confident that we offer a 10-year extended guarantee on all our water tank lining systems.
