Our post-job service ensures satisfaction and efficient installation of tank insulation systems.

Our Bolted Tank Construction Services
Design & Engineering
With an experienced and certified crew, Tarsco provides clients with detailed and conceptual designs that prioritize safety, functionality, and regulatory compliance. We also perform hydrostatic testing and commissioning to ensure structural integrity and readiness for operation.
Construction Method & Safety
Tarsco’s certified in-house engineering team provides safe, cost-effective services. Our ground-level jacking system improves structural quality, allows proper inspection, and eliminates the need for large cranes or scaffolding. We offer accessories for new or existing storage products. Our process includes contract review, pre-job site inspections, and acceptance procedures to guarantee project success and compliance.
Site Adaptability
At Tarsco, we use a modular design that enables effective customization. Our qualified team can construct products that adapt to challenging environments, including seismic zones and confined spaces. The absence of cranes improves the ability to work in limited spaces. Our bolted systems are easy to dismantle and relocate if needed.
Timelines & Installation Efficiency
Tarsco's team of professionals aims to provide quick, cost-effective, and safe installation. We are one of the leading water tank installers that use prefabricated parts that are easy to ship and assemble on-site. We use racks, pallets, and wooden crates for compact packing and hardware in buckets for safe shipping and handling.
Materials & Construction
The effective choice of materials helps build durable, corrosion-resistant, and high-performing products. Our in-house team takes care of the material choice and construction
Bolted Panel Assembly
Tarsco water tank construction and other products use carbon steel, epoxy, or stainless steel. Carbon steel of ASTM A36 standard with a minimum thickness of 3/32” and a maximum of 1/2” with dimensions 1.52 m x 3.00m is used. Standard colors used are white, tan, cobalt blue, Caribbean blue, environmental green, and forest green. Manus Bond sealant ensures structural integrity and long service life.
Corrosion Resistance Systems
Tarsco bolted storage tank construction makes use of high-grade bolts (grade 8), nuts, and washers that have a dichromate coating. Polycapped head bolts offer better corrosion resistance. As a global leader in factory-applied coated bolted tanks, Tarsco products have an interior and exterior basecoat thickness of 7 mils and 2-4 mils DFT average, respectively, and an exterior polyester thickness of 2-3 mils DFT average.
Skilled Construction Crews
Tarsco in-house certified teams adhere to safety and regulatory protocols. They have 120+ hours of in-house safety training and an EMR safety record that is well above industry average. We follow ASTM, AWWA, NSF, FDA, NFPA, and FM standards to ensure safe, efficient, and effective design and construction. Our rigorous QA procedures ensure precise dimensions, appropriate corrosion resistance, and regulatory compliance.
