EXPERTS IN WATER TANK REPAIRS, RELINES AND REPLACEMENTS

If your water tank is leaking or an issue has been raised following a Legionella Risk Assessment you may need a tank refurbishment or a tank replacement. 

Cold Water Storage has the knowledge and expertise to deliver either of these options. We work with you to understand your requirements and any constraints. We will survey the site to complete an assessment of the tank and the provide you with our suggestions and recommendations. If the tank is structurally sound and easily accessible for maintenance, then a repair and refurbish is the sustainable option. Otherwise, if the tank is damaged, requires a change in capacity or to relocate the tank then a new water tank installation may be the best way forward. Cold Water Storage can offer exceptional solutions for both.  

TANK REPAIR AND RELINE

We have developed a robust and reliable tank repair and reline service over the past 15 years which in many cases is the favourable option wherever possible. Our solution addresses issues such as deteriorating mastic, erosion, corrosion of internal steel fastening and bacterial growth. We have experience and knowledge repairing and lining the following types of tanks – click to find out more about each:

• Galvanised Steel Water Tank
• Steel Braithwaite Sectional Water Tank
• Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) Tank
• Cooling Towers
• Sprinkler Tanks
• Concrete Tanks

In the UK there are regulations for the coatings used for water tank refurbishment to ensure water tanks and lining don’t contaminate the contents of the tank. Any tank or coating material used should be approved by the Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS). The product we use offers a flexible lining and coating for water tanks; it is a WRAS approved solvent-free polyurethane coating specifically designed for re-lining potable and drinking water tanks. It provides excellent protection against erosion and corrosion. We offer a 10 year guarantee on all our tank lining systems.

We can also use a spray applied Polyurea lining system. This lining system is touch dry in five seconds and can be applied to large areas very quickly. The lining system is WRAS approved and Regulation 31/DWI approved meaning that compliancy is assured. The Polyurea lining system has fantastic properties of elongation and flexibility with zero risk of cracking or failure.

TANK REPLACEMENT

In the event that a tank repair is not possible or feasible, or your preference is a water tank replacement we can also plan and deliver this solution. We supply and install tanks which are built from WRAS approved sectional GRP panels approved for potable water storage, and are all manufactured in Britain using the highest standards. (GRP is a fibre reinforced polymer made up of fibres of glass. It makes for a very tough and durable material that can last for a long time)

To limit any downtime and to ensure continuity of water supply, we have developed a robust way of providing temporary water systems. We can install a temporary mains bypass or a temporary tanked system ahead of the the tank replacement process or any tank remedial works to ensures a continuous water supply throughout the duration of the works.
