Australian Reservoir Services successfully completed the external recoating of the Pine Street Reservoirs for Hay Shire Council consisting of high-pressure water washing, surface repairs, and external coatings. The reservoirs are two mild steel tanks located at the South end of Pine Street in Hay, New South Wales, with a nominated capacity of 2.3 and 5.9ML, a diameter of 11.5m and 18m, and heights of 24.75m and 30m. Due to the height of the assets, the project required the use of special high access equipment, which ARS proudly owns.
This project was completed in a relatively quick timeframe in order to ensure minimal impact on the community. ARS worked efficiently and with the highest safety standards supported by the team experience and skills with protective coatings for water reservoirs.
