Specialists in protective coatings
Surface preparation is the whole job. Everything we do is organised around hitting the profile and the cleanliness the coating datasheet calls for, then proving it before anyone sprays.
Linings
Tanks and Vessels
Internal linings for storage tanks, process vessels, clarifiers, and secondary containment, including potable water systems to NSF/ANSI 61.

Steel and Racks
Blasting and coating of structural steel, pipe racks, vessels, and equipment, in our Tulsa facility or in the field under containment.

Pipe and Plant
Field blasting and coating of piping, valves, and equipment during turnarounds, with full containment and waste handling.
Learn moreInspection
Documented
AMPP-certified inspectors, written QC procedures, and a documented record of profile, ambient conditions, and dry film thickness on every job.

Three jobs that show the range: a potable water lining, a tank farm recoat, and shop blasting on a schedule.
How we work
Our Core Values
Four things we will not trade away to make a number work.
Preparation Wins
Nobody sprays until the profile and cleanliness are measured and recorded. Coating failures are almost always preparation failures.
Documented Quality
Ambient conditions, profile, and dry film thickness logged by an AMPP inspector, handed to you as a report.
Confined Space Discipline
Written entry permits, attendants, continuous monitoring, and rescue capability on every tank we enter.
Real Schedules
We build around dew point and cure windows, not wishful thinking. If weather will not allow it, we say so early.
Testimonials
What our customers say
Fourteen tanks in one season without taking a single one out of service longer than we agreed. Their inspector caught a profile problem on tank six before it cost us a recoat.
We switched to Cordell after a lining failure with another contractor. Three years on, the holiday testing is still clean and the documentation is the best we get from anyone.
From the field
Latest News
Field notes on surface preparation, lining selection, and why coatings fail early.
CoatingsFailure
Why Coatings Fail Early, and It Is Almost Never the Paint
Chlorides left on the surface, a profile out of spec, or spraying past the dew point window. Three causes account for most of the premature failures we are called to fix.
LiningsWater
Choosing a Lining for Potable Water Storage
NSF/ANSI 61 certification is the starting point, not the decision. Cure time, return to service, and how the tank will be cleaned matter just as much.
Field Work
Containment on Field Blasting: What It Should Cost
Containment is usually the line item owners push back on and the one that keeps a job from becoming an environmental report. Here is how to scope it honestly.

Send us the asset and the spec
Give us the tank or structure, the service, and your outage window. We will inspect it and come back with a coating system and a schedule.
