Coating Rehabilitation

Restore Protection. Extend Tank Life.

Superior Tank Solutions, Inc. (STS) provides coating rehabilitation services designed to restore protection, extend service life, and help prevent costly corrosion damage in bolted and welded steel storage tanks. When coating systems begin to break down, early action can help preserve the structural integrity of the tank and reduce the need for more extensive repairs later.

Our team evaluates the condition of your existing coating system and recommends the right rehabilitation approach based on tank condition, service environment, and long-term maintenance goals. Whether your tank requires localized repairs or a complete coating replacement, STS delivers solutions tailored to your needs.

Routine inspections are one of the most effective ways to extend tank life, improve reliability, and reduce unexpected downtime. By identifying corrosion, coating deterioration, structural concerns, and component issues early, STS helps customers avoid emergency repairs and better prepare for future maintenance needs.

Comprehensive Solutions for Long-Term Tank Performance and Reliability

Spot Repair
and Recoat

For tanks with isolated coating failure, STS can perform spot repairs and recoating to address damaged areas and restore protection where it is needed most.

Complete
Overcoat

When an existing coating system remains generally sound but shows signs of age or wear, a complete overcoat can provide renewed protection and extend coating life.

Full Surface Preparation and Recoat

For more advanced coating failure, STS can sandblast all surfaces to remove the existing coating system and apply a new recoat for complete rehabilitation.

Selecting the Right Coating System

Choosing the proper coating system is one of the most important parts of a successful rehabilitation project. STS helps tank owners evaluate coating options based on expected service life, cure time, application requirements, and project goals.
