DELIVERABLES / SCOPE OF WORK
Exterior concrete Fish Ponds at the Mactaquac Fish Hatchery require sand blasting, concrete patching, and extensive surface preparation work for restoration and reapplication of a specialized paint sealant coating. Pond sump drains require restoration which shall include replacement of stainless steel cross member supports during the preparation stage of each tank.
This project is an urgent requirement to refinish and recoat 9 existing 36 x 36 foot exterior concrete fish ponds at the Mactaquac Biodiversity Facility, in French Village New Brunswick.
Nine (9) large ponds will be refinished during the Summer and Fall of 2017 (August to November). Each existing pond will require sand or water blasting to completely remove all traces of existing dilapidated former coating. Any leaks in tanks will be repaired. Parging coats will then be applied to smooth out the concrete surfaces. Primer coats will be applied followed by two finish coats of CEM-KOTE FLEX ST by Gemite Flexible Cementitious Coating in order to seal and waterproof each of the nine tanks being restored. Pond sump drains are rusted and require all new stainless steel metal supports to reattach aluminum pond filter screens.
