Full Refurbishing

Asher Industrial Maintenance provides expert refurbishing of all water towers. The full refurbishment of a water tower involves a comprehensive surface restoration and protective coating process to extend the structure’s service life and ensure long-term performance. All existing paint and coatings are completely removed through abrasive grit blasting to the national SSPC-SP 10 / NACE No. 2 standard (The official standard for Near-White Metal Blast Cleaning) This is a rigorous surface preparation process removing almost all rust, scale, and old paint, allowing only minimal, light staining (max 5%) for superior coating adhesion, achieved by slow, overlapping nozzle passes with abrasive media like steel grit, creating a textured "anchor profile" for the new finish. This process provides a clean, properly profiled surface necessary for optimal coating adhesion. Following thorough inspection and surface preparation, the tower is repainted with a high-performance, corrosion-resistant coating system designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions. The refurbishment also restores the tower’s structural integrity by tightening yokes and welding repairs. In many cases new manways are welded into place and railings are replaced or modified to meet current codes. Finally, all safety equipment is usually replaced with newer safer models for fall protection.
