Ensuring Quality, Increasing Longevity

At Corrims, we understand the needs of industry. No project manager wants to be dealing with costly and time-consuming maintenance or reparative issues, so it’s important that regular inspections and assessments be carried out on every site. We have a hard-earned reputation for delivering quality solutions to a wide range of industries, helping to ensure a job well done and enhancing the lifespan of your assets. In this blog post, we will detail a few of the ways in which we can assist.

Corrosion, Fire Insulation and Inspection

Issues such as corrosion often go unnoticed to the untrained eye, and they can quickly get out of hand. We conduct inspections for coatings on all materials, including stainless steel, aluminium, brick, plastic, concrete and ferrous-steel.  Coating pipes and beams is a remarkably effective way to prevent rust and corrosion, but sometimes contractors can cut corners and use inferior products – and this is never a good thing. Issues range from applying the coating to a poorly prepared surface causing poor adhesion through to low film builds and insufficient wraps. This negates all the positive effects that a proper application can provide, such as corrosion and heat resistance, impact protection and abrasion resistance.

We also assist with fire insulation. This is one of the most critical elements in any industrial plant, structure or building. Properly installed fire insulation is critical for safe and efficient daily operation, protecting the lives of your employees and reducing the risk of devastating loss in the event of a fire.

Corrims are experts in corrosion and fire insulation inspection and repair, and we service the oil and gas, energy, shipping and mining industries to name just a few. We’ll visit your site and make sure everything is up to standard. If you are carrying out construction work, we’ll make sure that everything is progressing smoothly in accordance with OHS and building practices with a high attention to detail shown at all times.

Concrete Condition Evaluation

Concrete forms the basis of just about every site in the built environment. Whilst it is typically a very durable material, it is prone to cracking and the structural integrity can become weakened over time. It’s also important to make sure that the concrete being used during construction has sufficient hardness and resistivity to last the distance, and at Corrims we can conduct these tests for you.

Get the Full Picture – Corrims Drone Inspection Service

When you’re in charge of a large petrochemical, construction, communications, utilities or oil and gas plant – it’s important to carry out regular inspections. It is not humanly possible to keep an eye on absolutely everything, but that’s where we can help. We have a fleet of advanced drones which will take to the skies to survey your site in detail. Our drones are capable of high resolution photography and video, and they can reach incredible heights which would otherwise be highly dangerous if not impossible to explore. This makes them ideal for sites such as dam walls, wind turbines and plants which reach extreme heights.

The drones will confirm that all your assets are in good condition and functioning properly. This is a fast, safe, convenient and cost-effective way to gain a comprehensive understanding of the state of your assets. We will check for corrosion, cracks and hotspots in pipelines in addition to undertaking land surveys and dilapidation assessments and anything else you might require. We link our drones to a computer, so we can provide you with real-time updates whilst in the sky.
