Cost-EfficientNew Tank Construction

At Skinner Tank Company (STC), we understand that economics play an increasingly important role in our customers' decision-making processes. Therefore, when you contact STC, we will first suggest the most economical tank dimensions for your storage needs; and from the moment you place an order for your new tank, we will work diligently to minimize costs on your project. Rarely do our customers experience unforeseen additional charges from us during new tank construction projects.

We purchase materials in bulk from both steel mills and reputable steel distributors. We fabricate tank materials at our own facility and then transport the materials to the job site primarily on company-owned trucks. STC owns more than a dozen rough terrain cranes that are also transported to job sites on our trucks.

Our construction crews are comprised of permanent STC employees, not contract employees or workers hired from temp agencies. Our crews are relatively small, and therefore, work very efficiently as a team to complete your project.

ServicesBeyond Construction

Skinner Tank Company (STC) provides a variety of services beyond the construction of new tanks. From Inspection Services to Repair and Maintenance Services; from Secondary Containment Services to Dismantling and Relocation Services, STC can assist you with every aspect of your project.

API 653 INSPECTIONS 

STC has the ability to inspect your existing tanks and make experienced assessments and recommendations for repairs, if needed.

STC tank inspections and repairs are based on the requirements of API Standard 653 (Tank Inspection, Repair, Alteration, and Reconstruction).

REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE

Realizing that sometimes it may be more economical to repair an existing tank rather than build a new one, STC also offers these services.

From something as minor as the repair of a leak or the installation of a new nozzle, to something as major as the replacement of an entire roof or the installation of a new second floor in your tank, STC has the experience and expertise to get the job done.

DISMANTLING & RELOCATION

At STC, we understand that tanks occasionally require scrapping and/or relocation and/or replacing, and we are experienced in all of these areas. We follow the methods required by API 653 for the proper dismantling and reconstruction of tanks.

If you have a tank that simply needs to be scrapped, we can also provide this service to you in a safe and economical manner. STC can remove the tank materials from your site, or you can arrange for the removal by a local scrap service that will likely pay you for the materials.

If you need a tank dismantled, so that a new tank can be built on the same foundation, STC can provide turnkey assistance with that as well.

SECONDARY CONTAINMENT

Different products, different states, and different communities require vastly different degrees of secondary containment. STC can walk you through the decision-making process of what type of secondary containment best fits your needs and to what extend secondary containment is required.

STC can build double walled and/or double floored tanks. We can assist with earthen dike design, as well as assist with the purchase and installation of earthen dike liners or internal tank bladders.
