Repairing Water Tank Roofs
Our team at ATM Tanks repairs or replaces your existing water tank roof easily and provide quality. Because of our vast experience in this sector our solutions for your water storage needs are quick and reliable. We offer solutions to worn and tired water tank roofs. In addition, we handle roofs that a storm has blown off or roofs hit by a tree branch.
ATM Tanks repair and maintenance services are available for big commercial size tank roofs. For our roofs, we use Zincalume® and Colorbond®, making the roof strong and durable in its corrugated design. These products are tried and tested in Australian conditions. Because of this, they look lovely and offer exceptional, lasting performance. We use top quality Class 4 Tek screw to give you maximum corrosion resistance to hold the roof in place.
Repairing Water Tanks Decreases Legionella Risk.
If you are in charge of your facilities, you must control the risk of Legionella and different waterborne germs in your systems. Existing Legionella bacteria is dangerous to any person who uses your building’s water system.
This bacteria flourishes in corroded or inefficiently maintained water systems. It is the legal obligation of premises that use water storage tanks or different water systems to protect their employees or other people who use their facility from Legionella bacteria risk. The requirement also extends to other kinds of waterborne germs. If water tanks are not maintained properly, they become prone to bacteria growth.
Legionella bacteria grow on such inadequately maintained water tanks. The water tanks that need replacement or repair due to sediment, rust, etc. have substances that provide food for Legionella—because of this, repairing water tanks becomes a necessary tool for water hygiene maintenance.

Elevated Waterproof
A roofed water tank’s interior environment is best for a tank liner. The reason is that there is no wind, sunlight or overall movement. Due to this, we give you a ten-year guarantee with the liner we install. To us, your tank water lining is an affordable way of fixing the leak in your water tank.
It does not involve tank repairs; rather, it entails placing another ‘tank’ inside your last water tank. This method of repairing tanks is different because we are not worried about separate cracks in the tank’s structure. The reason is we cover the whole water tank interior with the tank liner, such as impeding cracks.
Steel Tank Bands
An internal skeleton holds concrete tanks together. This feature is the steel support in the concrete when leakage has occurred in tanks for a lengthy period. As a result, the reinforcement rusts and when it occurs in full height vertical cracks, the steel band supporting the tank cracks.
In severe cases, it makes the concrete tank collapse. It can destroy buildings and other elements in the path of water and debris. Given this, we install a tank liner if there are signs of leakage. We also install liners in tanks that have experienced leaking for a long time. Under these circumstances, we fit galvanised steel bands hence restoring the tank’s optimal strength once more.
Work Scope
After draining, cleaning and checking for sharp protrusions, we install a geotextile layer. It is a non-degradable non-woven polyester material that is best used as a substitute for geotextile. After this, we replace the overflow and outlet fitting through the wall using new fittings. Our team ensures they deal with anything that might cause issues in the future.
We can use the existing fittings for steel water tanks; it depends on their condition. Then we fix the tank liner to the concrete water tank’s perimeter above the overflow level. For this, we use powder-actuated pins featuring a zinc washer approximately every 500mm, and for poly and steel tanks, we use Tek screws.
During the installation procedure, we check the liner twice for perforations. Consequently, we ensure a superior quality installation. When we finish, you can store water in your tank. ATM Tanks helps you with whatever issue you are experiencing with your water tank.
We have vast experience in the water tank sector, and we are confident of giving you the best solution for your water storage requirements.
