We completed a major refurbishment project at a strategically important water treatment works, extending the lifespan – by over 10 years – of a critical asset whilst mitigating the need for a costly and carbon intensive new build alternative.
Storm tank installation
A 55 cubic metre sectional-steel storm tank with sustainable features was installed at a wastewater treatment site to comply with regulations to cut sewage overflows. The works significantly reduced running costs for our client and allowed them to meet specified carbon reduction targets while increasing stormwater capacity to help protect local waterways for decades to come.
Large-scale weir removal
On behalf of the EA we successfully opened 340 miles of catchment in the largest project of its kind – in the country – by removing a 70 meter wide, 900 year old medieval weir. Removing the weir significantly improved fish migration, spawning grounds and habitat. Fallen water levels have also allowed natural ecological processes to recommence.
Water tower valve replacement
Stonbury was pleased to deliver replacements to several gate valves within a water tower during a four- week programme.
Water treatment works contact tanks refurbishment
Stonbury were recently awarded the contract for the repair and refurbishment of internal contact tanks within a Water Treatment Works facility.
Wave wall investigation
Stonbury was contracted to complete investigation works into the condition of an existing wave wall structure on an impounding reservoir.
Critical asset repairs
Earlier in the year, we began carrying out repairs to a failing reservoir which showed signs of severe water ingress. The original scope included 180 linear meters of crack repairs. However, following an inspection, this increased to more than 300.
Weed rack fabrication
Stonbury were engaged to fabricate and install a new weed rack as part of the Environment Agency WLMP programme at Bodenham, near Salisbury. The weed rack was fabricated to EA specifications inhouse.
Dam and watercourse refurbishment
A county council contracted Stonbury to carry out a package of repair works to dams and watercourse at various locations.
Contact tank cover replacement
Stonbury was contracted to replace the hatch covers on a live potable water reservoir in the East Midlands.
Weed screen replacement
Following a successful tender, Stonbury was engaged by a client to design a trash screen that incorporated a manually operated vertical penstock screen.
Weir & dam refurbishment
We were contracted after lengthy client/designer/contractor investigation works to complete the full refurbishment of 10 No. weir and dam structures near Burton upon Trent.
Circular tank insulation installation
Stonbury was asked to provide a solution that would shield two above-ground steel tanks from the summer heat. The works were required as the temperature during the summer months was promoting the growth of bacteria inside the water tanks.
Wet well refurbishment
Stonbury were contracted to undertake refurbishment works to a deteriorating waste water wet well.
Wilford Bridge refurbishment
Stonbury are carrying out a major refurbishment of Wilford Suspension bridge that spans the River Trent in Nottingham.
