ATM Tanks prioritises quality, so we offer over and underground waterproofing services that meet our clients needs. We use a chemical treatment over your concrete water tank. As a result, your water stops leaking from the walls and prevents water loss.
We use entirely safe chemicals for waterproofing. Our team provides waterproofing services to the interior and exterior of concrete water tanks. With time water stored on concrete tanks leaks, so we use waterproofing chemicals to stop this.
We repair and waterproof all kinds of tanks, that is, underground, aboveground and rooftop. Underground water tanks experience water ingress from external sources.
For example we spray an internal flexible lining on your tank’s walls and floor. We carry out small repairs efficiently from the exterior and we do not have to empty your tank.
Because of this you save time and money. Our tank repair services are available for a tank’s interior and exterior.
ATM Tanks Quality Water Storage Tank Services
We offer site-specific assessments and solutions and tank management services to provide solutions. Our services are available to industrial and commercial businesses throughout Australia. We carry out yearly inspections of your water storage tanks. Also, at all times, we ensure your water storage tank works according to Australian Standards and Asset Warranties.
Why Waterproofing Tanks is Important
It is vital to waterproof your industrial or commercial tank to keep your water storage system free from leaks. Small cracks or leaks in the waterproofing membranes can cause major structural problems quickly.
Moreover, it can lead to electrical risks and flooding. Leaks and cracks can cause various unexpected compliance breaches as well. Apart from the tanks, the areas near the tanks have exposure to spillages most of the time.
Hence these surroundings need waterproofing services. ATM Tanks has the equipment, skills and resources to install different membranes to match all premises and industrial tank structures.
Waterproofing Membranes
Heavy-duty waterproofing membranes describe a ‘layer’ or coating we apply to surfaces. The purpose is to stop water from accessing undesired sections.
We use different application techniques. However, we ensure that we install the membrane effectively for its specific application.
Our expert team has undertaken tank waterproofing installation services for years.
In addition, we suggest and implement membranes to back different applications all over Australia.
ATM Tanks’ Different Waterproofing Membranes
We provide tank-waterproofing membranes in various applications types. In light of this, we supply different high-grade peel & stick, liquid and torch-on products to improve your water storage tank’s efficacy.
We apply the following tank waterproofing membranes types:
- Torch-on membranes (double and single-layered). This maintenance membrane is low maintenance and features modified polymers and bitumen.
- We provide two kinds of torch-on membranes – SBS (Styrene Butadiene Styrene) and (APP) Atactic Polypropylene Plastic. The APP membranes are ideal for tanks that are subjected to sunlight and harsh temperatures continuously. It is available in sheet form and melts quickly when heat is used. SBS membranes best suit cold weather where the surface of the tank expands.
- Peel & stick membranes: ATM Tanks mainly uses this membrane on vertical surfaces. This self-adhered waterproofing membrane features a material that looks like film, and we use a stick-on application technique. It particularly suits metal tanks for durable adhesion.
- Liquid membrane applications: This sealant resembles gel coating, and its design fills or prevents tiny leaks that may lead to more significant problems in the future. It is easy to spray it on and is a durable and affordable waterproofing solution.
Concrete Tank Applications
Usually, walled or concrete based tanks need a liquid barrier application. It is a suitable protective layering technique, and we often use two coats to optimise its efficacy. Cracked containment is a prevalent issue that requires a membrane solution.
It seals the sensitive surface areas. ATM Tanks applies liquid polyurethane coatings on your tanks walls. Water storage parts with concrete surfaces have an improved rate of durable waterproofing protection.
Stopping Leaks in Concrete Water Tanks
If your concrete water tank is leaking it can affect the surroundings. Therefore you should take action quickly. Also a leak can damage the environment if left untreated and fixing it can be expensive and time consuming.
Concrete cracks after some time due to settling, curing, seismic activity and shrinkage. When your concrete water tank cracks it causes contamination and leakage. The ATM Tanks team is experienced in repairing leaks. We use special cement-based products to fix holes, seeps and cracks. Our team works quickly and efficiently to solve the issue so you have peace of mind. More importantly we provide affordable services.
We recognise any future problems and fix the existing ones. We carry out repair work from the tank’s interior hence protecting the water tank’s structure from worse damage. Our resurfacing solution acts as a waterproof barrier. Moreover our services are available for commercial water tanks.
