Water Tank Refurbishment Services

At Franklin Hodge, we offer expert water tank refurbishment services aimed at restoring, upgrading, and prolonging the life of your existing tanks. Whether your tanks are used for fire sprinkler systems, potable water storage, or industrial process water, our refurbishment solutions guarantee that your tank remains safe, compliant, and cost-effective. 

If the tank shell is still structurally sound, refurbishment presents a more economical option compared to complete replacement. Our team delivers customised refurbishment solutions that minimise costs and downtime while ensuring adherence to regulations. Should replacement be necessary, we also provide comprehensive tank installation services.

Why Choose Tank Refurbishment? 

Refurbishing an existing water tank is a smart approach that allows businesses to sidestep expensive system shutdowns and costly replacements, all while maintaining compliance with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and other health and safety standards. 

Key Benefits of Refurbishment: 

• Cost-effective alternative to full replacement 
• Minimised downtime, ensuring uninterrupted water supply 
• Extended tank lifespan and improved performance 
• Compliance with UK water storage regulations 

At Franklin Hodge, we provide a turnkey refurbishment service, managing every aspect of the process to ensure fast completion and minimal disruption. 

Comprehensive Turnkey Refurbishment Services 

We offer a fully managed refurbishment service that includes cleaning, relining, insulation, and maintenance. Our dedicated in-house team manages every aspect, so you won’t have to coordinate with multiple contractors… 

Rapid Installation 

For smaller water tanks, we offer a full range of services that include draining, cleaning, relining, and refilling, all designed to minimise disruption to your operations. 

Tailored Solutions 

Our refurbishment services are customised to fit the specific needs of your system, ensuring it performs reliably for the long term. 

Certified Quality 

With more than 30 years of experience, we hold ISO9001:2015 certification and utilise WRAS-approved materials, guaranteeing adherence to industry standards. 

Innovative Cleaning Techniques 

Our advanced cleaning methods include drones, ROVs, and underwater vacuums, allowing for thorough inspections and sediment removal without the need for complete drainage. 

High-Performance Tank Lining Solutions 

A crucial aspect of refurbishment is making sure your tank stays watertight and free from contaminants. Our skilled team installs robust liners made from butyl rubber or EPDM, both of which provide excellent sealing capabilities and durability. 

Benefits of Butyl Rubber & EPDM Liners:

• WRAS-approved for potable water storage, meeting BS6920 standards 
• UV, ozone, and weather-resistant, preventing material degradation 
• Exceptional durability, resistant to punctures, wear, and surface movement 
• Fully waterproof, ensuring complete impermeability against leaks 
• Chemical-resistant, compatible with chlorine treatments for sterilisation 

For added protection, we also provide polyester matting underlay to guard against liner punctures caused by sharp surfaces. If repairs are necessary, they can be done quickly on-site with minimal disruption.
