Pump Station Restoration – Case Study

Protective coating stops corrosion, infiltration

Problem: The protective coating was failing on two leachate collection manholes at an Ontario landfill, resulting in severe corrosion of the concrete and costly treatments of groundwater.

Solution: City officials hired Liqui-Force Services to rehabilitate the structures. After extensive safety preparation, workers used high-pressure water blasting to expose a solid substrate, then installed a stress skin panel from SpectraShield to eliminate corrosion and stop infiltration.

Result: Repairs to both structures were completed in less than one week.
