Lift station concrete rehabilitation & protective coating

Protective coating applied with pumps reinstalled
Facility type
Municipal wastewater lift station
Surface area
Approximately 84.82 square feet of deteriorated concrete
Materials
  • Tnemec Series 217 MortarCrete

The challenge

A wastewater lift station showed concrete deterioration from a long-term aggressive environment, including hydrogen sulfide exposure and moisture intrusion.

Outcome

The structure was restored to sound condition and protected against future corrosion, with QA/QC documentation delivered at closeout.

Scope of work

  • Permit-required confined-space entry and atmospheric monitoring
  • Surface cleaning and abrasive blasting
  • Removal of deteriorated concrete to a sound substrate
  • Concrete restoration with Tnemec Series 217 MortarCrete
  • Protective lining with Tnemec Series 454
  • Final inspection, cleanup, and owner walkthrough
