Expert FRP Tank Lining and Repair Services in Ohio

American Fiberglass Tank Repair provides interior corrosion-barrier restoration, structural fiberglass repair, nozzle and manway modification, chemical storage tank relining, potable and process water tank repair, wastewater tank rehabilitation, and emergency FRP repair. Services are designed for industrial, municipal, chemical, water treatment, and processing facilities that need to extend tank life without replacing the vessel.

In many cases, yes. Relining or targeted structural repair can recover a tank with a compromised corrosion coat, nozzle damage, abrasion, spidering, or localized laminate failure. After inspection, AFTR determines whether repair is appropriate based on the tank’s structure, chemical exposure, operating temperature, and safety requirements, often avoiding major capital expense and replacement lead time.

Inspections may include visual examination of the interior, exterior, floor, shell, nozzles, and interfaces, plus instrument methods such as ultrasonic testing, laser assessment, Barcol hardness testing, and high-intensity backlighting. FTPI-certified inspectors look for issues such as disbondment, capillary migration, liner breach, abrasion wear, emulsification, shell distortion, and ultraviolet degradation.

AFTR works with custom-blended isophthalic and terephthalic polyester, vinylester, and epoxy resin systems selected for the stored chemical, concentration, and operating temperature. Common applications include sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, ferric chloride, hydrochloric acid, potable water, deionized water, process water, and wastewater-related chemical service.

Yes. Emergency services are available 24/7 for incidents such as forklift impact, tipped tanks, dropped equipment, structural damage, and sudden lining failures. Field crews can mobilize with Service-Pack containers stocked with resins, veils, fiberglass mats, and repair tools so assessment, stabilization, repair, and return-to-service inspection can begin quickly.

Yes. AFTR routinely works around customer schedules, including planned shutdowns, night shifts, weekends, and operational windows when downtime is least costly. Crews are equipped to work year-round and can manage work-area temperature when needed, helping Ohio facilities plan tank repairs during practical maintenance windows.

Timing depends on tank size, access, surface condition, chemical service, curing requirements, and whether nozzle or structural repairs are included. A straightforward lining repair may fit within a planned outage, while extensive relining requires more preparation and cure time. AFTR builds the schedule around inspection findings and your facility’s downtime constraints.
