Expert FRP Tank Lining and Repair Services Texas

American Fiberglass Tank Repair provides FRP tank relining, corrosion barrier restoration, chemical storage tank repair, nozzle and manway modification, inspections, emergency response, potable and process water tank repair, and wastewater facility rehabilitation. Services are designed for in-place fiberglass tanks and can be scheduled around shutdowns, nights, weekends, or operational windows to reduce downtime.

Relining is often appropriate when the tank shell remains structurally viable but the interior corrosion barrier is worn, breached, spidered, abraded, or showing signs of chemical attack. A professional inspection can identify capillary migration, liner disbondment, or structural concerns. If damage is localized or repairable, relining can extend service life at a lower cost than replacement.

Yes. AFTR repairs and relines FRP tanks storing aggressive chemistries such as sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, ferric chloride, hydrochloric acid, and similar industrial chemicals. Resin, veil, and laminate systems are selected based on the exact chemical, concentration, operating temperature, and tank condition to restore corrosion resistance and improve long-term performance.

Emergency FRP tank repair is available 24/7. Field crews can respond to incidents such as forklift impact, dropped equipment, tipped tanks, shell damage, and urgent lining failures. Service-Pack containers carry resins, mats, veils, and repair tools so crews can begin assessment and repair quickly once the tank is safe and accessible.

Inspections can include interior and exterior visual review, nozzle interface checks, ultrasonic testing, laser evaluation, high-intensity backlight testing, and Barcol hardness readings. Inspectors look for spidering, abrasion, emulsification, disbondment, capillary migration, shell distortion, UV degradation, and floor stress cracking. Findings are documented with recommended repair, relining, or monitoring actions.

Yes. AFTR schedules FRP tank repair, lining, inspections, and maintenance around customer operations, including planned shutdowns, night shifts, weekends, and other low-impact windows. Crews can also condition the tank or work area in extreme heat or cold, helping keep repair timelines on track during challenging seasonal conditions.

Materials may include custom-blended isophthalic and terephthalic polyester, vinylester, and epoxy resins, along with more than 45 fiberglass mat, chopped strand, Nexus, Harlar, and carbon veil laminates. The system is matched to the stored product, chemical concentration, operating temperature, lining thickness needs, and required corrosion resistance.

Project duration depends on tank size, damage severity, surface preparation, curing requirements, access conditions, and whether nozzle modifications or structural repairs are included. Many repairs are planned around outages to minimize disruption. Dedicated tanker trailer relining may typically take about two weeks, while field tank projects are scoped after inspection.
