Service Overview:

One of the most important areas when refurbishing, relining or repairing tanks or bunds is the preparation work, assessment and testing phase.

Our Chartered Engineer at McBreen Environmental always inspects the tanks or bunds to determine the correct rehabilitation method, selecting materials and methods specifically tailored to each project on a case-by-case basis.

All tanks and bunds are tested and repaired to meet BS8007 and EN1610 where applicable.

McBreen Environmental complete various tests and techniques such as;

  • Spark testing
  • Hydrostatic Bund Testing
  • Visual inspections by our Chartered Engineer
  • Steel thickness measurements


These tests ensure the integrity of each structure and compliance with relevant standards.

Injection Systems for Exfiltration and Infiltration Control

Our injection systems seal any exfiltration or infiltration points to prevent future issues. Depending on the tank or bund type, we apply specialised resins, cementitious materials, or a combination of both, ensuring a robust seal that withstands long-term usage.

We provide high-pressure washing to thoroughly clean all surfaces using a minimum of 500 bar pressure to ensure optimal preparation.

Following the cleaning process our chartered Engineer will assess and specify the appropriate material and application techniques to be used.

Using a concrete mortar sprayer we apply the specified material(s) (as determined by our Chartered Engineer) to the walls and floors, with the thickness tailored to address the specific area of damage. Each project specification is defined to ensure full compliance with EPA standards, guaranteeing durable and environmentally safe rehabilitation methods.
