Project Overview
AQL have completed work to clarifier tanks in Lough Mask Water Treatment Plant. This plant plays a crucial role in supplying water to homes and business in the county of Mayo. Overtime, the structure had begun to exhibit signs of structural wear and leakages due to the nature of its use. As well as this, the water treatment process was to be changed, so some adjustments had to be made to the clarifiers. Adrian Queally Ltd (AQL) was engaged to carry out a comprehensive refurbishment of the clarifiers, addressing both external and internal deterioration while applying protective coatings to prolong the structure’s lifespan.

Scope of works
Surface Preparation Works – All internal surfaces were subjected to a high-pressure clean-down to remove contaminants, debris, and surface deterioration.Concrete Repairs- Soft, damaged and heavily eroded concrete was removed and/or repaired to return optimal cover to the rebar and allow for structural integrity.Crack Injection- All joints within the tank received resin injection to stop water ingress and egress that had been occurring.Surface Protective Coatings- All concrete elements that have been eroded or damaged were rectified and DWI approved coatings were applied to protect the concrete in the future.Floor Screed- The floor of the tanks received mechanical surface preparation, followed by a new floor screed to rectify erosion, blemishes and uneven surface.Pipe Penetrations- AQL installed new pipework, while creating a watertight seal around all pipes using specialist pipe penetration systems.
