Tank Sandblasting


Fast turnaround

Relining the tank is not a particularly long job to complete, our professional engineers quickly prepare the surfaces, and once the job is completed the cleanup is quick and easy.


Environmentally friendly

Sandblasting is a safe and eco-friendly method of cleaning surfaces. The process involves using sand, which is completely harmless and is free from any hazardous substances that could harm the environment.

Excellent Results

Sandblasting is capable of removing tough stains and contaminants that other cleaning methods cannot handle. It is an efficient and effective way of achieving a smooth, clean, and even surface.


Painting and Coating

Our highly trained teams of coating applicators, engineers and water hygiene experts are capable of ensuring your water storage tanks are extensively refurbished, relined and most importantly compliant.

Tank Painting and Coating


We understand that tank maintenance is more than just a chore—it’s critical for the smooth operation of your yacht’s systems. The slightest damage to your tank lining can provide a breeding ground for bacteria and cause leeks to develop.


Regular maintenance of yacht tanks is crucial to prevent corrosion, bacteria growth, and to ensure optimal fluid efficiency. Whilst diseases such as Legionnaires is often associated with ‘land-based’ locations such as large cooling towers, hotels and hospitals, the risk is no less present with Super Yachts and Cruise ships. From onboard fresh water supply tanks, sinks, showers to swimming, Jaccuzi and spa pools.

We can provide internal tank relining and water tank repair of all types of water tanks and process vessels. Our highly trained teams of coating applicators, mechanical engineers and water hygiene experts are capable of ensuring your yachts water storage tanks are extensively refurbished, relined and most importantly compliant with ACoP L8 by carrying out all required associated remedial works.

Cleaning a tank

Storage tanks are subject to pressure and corrosion – if the water tank has surface damage the legionella bacteria can easily grow, in addition leaks can develop which allows further contamination due to the ability of foreign material and bacteria to enter the tank. If the holding tank is in poor condition this can happen very quickly.
