Should I Reline a Water Tank?

A question we are often asked is should I reline or replace my cold water tank? While tank relining and tank refurbishment are great options, in some instances, we recommend a complete replacement. With over twenty years of experience in the water hygiene industry, we will geode you through the right process for your organisation.

What is a water tank?

Water tanks store water and deliver it through a pipework system. Water tanks are made out of different materials, such as steel and plastic. The most common type is galvanised steel tanks for water storage.

Why Repair or Replace a Water Tank?

Some water tanks can come to the end of their lifespan quicker than others. This could be for a variety of reasons, including;

  • Rusty water
  • Fluctuating water temperature
  • Leaking water that tastes ‘off’

Tank Location

Some old cold water storage tanks are located in hard-to-reach areas such as loft spaces which means a full replacement extracting the tank could be difficult. Our team of highly skilled engineers can deconstruct tanks and remove them piece by piece; however, in this scenario, it is much cheaper and easier to conduct a tank reline.

Save Money with a Tank Reline

Cold water tank refurbishment can be cost-effective. The price of a replacement might be significantly more than a tank reline; therefore, we highly recommend to our clients that they explore Tank Relining first.
