Water

Tadweld designs, fabricates and installs safe, compliant access solutions for the water industry, including to tanks, over pipes and around water treatment infrastructure.

We’re trusted to provide Safe Access for the Water Industry

Over our forty years in business we've delivered steelwork for some of the UK's most demanding industrial sites. Water infrastructure is among the most complex: live operational environments, existing tanks and pipework to work around, and strict safe access and design standards. We take a full design, fabrication and installation approach, so you have one team responsible from first survey to final handover.

Within the water sector we specialise in access platforms and walkways, tank access, stairs and ladders, stair crossovers and companionways over pipework, handrails and safety guarding, pipebridges and supports, as well as wider structural steelwork. Where a site needs something different, our custom fabrication service covers it.

Built to Your Standards

We understand that each provider has specific requirements. We design, fabricate and install to EN 1090-2, your health and safety requirements and CDM obligations, so your steelwork is compliant from the first drawing to final handover.

Designed Around Your Site

We design bespoke access solutions to fit, from stair crossovers and companionways over pipework to platforms, gantries and walkways around new tanks. We use 3D scanning and advanced measurement, so everything fits first time.

One Team, Start to Finish

We fabricate all steelwork in-house and install it with our own CSCS-accredited teams, and our supervisors are IOSH Managing Safely trained. One workforce from fabrication to installation. You can see our other accreditations here.

Safe, Compliant Access on Live Sites

Water sites leave little room for error. Access has to be designed around existing tanks, pipework and infrastructure, often at height, and to the water company's own standards. We design every solution to meet your safe access and design requirements, working to EN 1090-2 and your health and safety and CDM obligations.

Our systems include the protection people need to work at height, so site personnel have secure, practical routes wherever they need to go. We coordinate fabrication, delivery and installation carefully, so works on a live site are completed safely and with minimal disruption.
