NSF-61, AWWA, API tank linings

Tank Lining & Coating

Tank linings are zero-defect work. A pinhole in a potable water tank lining costs more than the original coat. Our network includes NACE-certified inspectors and SSPC-QP-3 shop applicators who line steel and concrete tanks per AWWA D102, NSF/ANSI 61, and API 652 specs, with full QA documentation and holiday testing.

Frequently asked

How much does it cost to line a tank?

Do you do NSF-61 potable water linings?

How long does a tank lining last?

100% solids epoxy potable water linings: 15–20 years. Novolac epoxy chemical linings: 10–15 years. Coal tar epoxy on wastewater: 20+ years. We provide manufacturer warranty docs with every job.
