How Long Does a Water Tank Refurbishment Take?

Water tank refurbishment is essential for extending the lifespan of your water storage systems. At Franklin Hodge, we offer tailored tank refurbishment services that restore and enhance the functionality of your tanks, ensuring they remain compliant with health and safety standards. The time it takes for a refurbishment can vary based on the size and condition of the tank, but with our turnkey solutions, we aim to minimise downtime and disruption to your operations. 

What Does Water Tank Refurbishment Involve? 

Tank refurbishment typically involves a thorough inspection to identify areas that need repair or restoration. Common tasks during a refurbishment include: 

• Cleaning: Removing debris, residues, or any harmful buildup inside the tank. 
• Coating or Lining: Applying a fresh coat or liner, such as butyl rubber or EPDM, to prevent structural damage. 
• Structural Repairs: Fixing any damage to the tank’s exterior or interior to restore its integrity. 

At Franklin Hodge, we use the latest technologies, such as drones, ROVs, and underwater vacuums, to ensure that your tank is thoroughly inspected and cleaned with minimal disruption. 

How Long Does a Tank Refurbishment Take? 

The timeframe for a tank refurbishment depends on factors such as tank size, the extent of the repairs, and the type of tank. For example, smaller water service tanks can be refurbished quicker, with tasks such as cleaning, lining, and refilling. Larger tanks or those requiring more extensive repairs may take a few days. 

Franklin Hodge’s quick and efficient service ensures that refurbishment is carried out promptly, allowing your system to return to full functionality without long delays.
