Partnering with Park Derochie provides a significant end-to-end benefit where the value-added throughout the coating process is carried through the projects life cycles.
Park Derochie works closely with the paint manufacturers to ascertain the best coating to serve clients’ needs by determining all necessary criteria; these include the internal and external temperatures, environmental conditions, erosion factors, life expectancy of the coating, cure time, and more. We are committed to supplying trained, skilled labour which is why some of our Supervisors are AMPP C3 certified and our organization is backed by additional AMPP certifications. We’re the first Canadian organization to hold 4 AMPP (QP1, QP2, QP3, and QP6) qualifications and one of a few companies in the world with TSA application (QP6) certification.
Park Derochie has established a reputation for delivering on every element of a project without sacrificing on safety or quality. That includes all aspects of the project starting with bidding, how to execute the project safely, meeting and exceeding quality requirements, and a complete turnover package put in the hands of the client. Next, we work closely with paint manufacturers to determine the best coating to serve the client’s needs keeping in mind what the coating is protecting the asset from, what the coating will be in contact with, internal and external temperature, and much more. We want to cultivate long-term relationships to become the client’s personal coatings expert.
Tanks
With over 60 years of experience in the application of internal linings and external coatings, as well as having successfully completed a single tank coating project in excess of $24 million, we have earned the reputation of Alberta’s largest tank coating contractor. Our large industrial heaters and dehumidification equipment allows us to apply coatings year-round. Equipment, along with our ability to provide experienced, well-trained trades-people gives us the unique distinction of being the most capable winter works coatings contractor in North America.
Bridges
We specialize in the removal and containment of existing lead-based paint and the subsequent application of modern, high-performance coating systems, that extend the lifespan of these critical pieces of infrastructure. This often involves working with Transport Canada, provincial transportation ministries, municipal governments, National Parks, railways, and Indigenous groups to ensure all stakeholders are informed and so the project can be executed to the highest safety and environmental standards. In addition, we offer complete scaffolding and hoarding services for projects of any size or shape.
We're a one-stop-shop contractor for all bridge projects—eliminating the need to coordinate with multiple contractors.
Thermal Sprayed Coatings (Metalizing)
An enhanced alternative protective coating for structural steel on bridges, piping, and vessels in environments of Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI), or vessels in aggressive service conditions. With the appropriate metal or alloy selection and coating thickness, the longevity of TSC’s significantly outperform conventional coating systems alone. A single-layer thermal sprayed coating can provide a service life up to 40 years or greater.
At Park Derochie, we offer leading-edge technology and equipment for shop and field applied TSC’s, utilizing Arc-Spray and Thermal-Spray methods. We have over 20 years of experience in shop and field settings, spraying 20,000+ square meters.
As an AMPP QP6 accredited company, Park Derochie has the primary technical capabilities and organizational structure to do metallizing work to a high standard.
Lead Abatement
Our team possesses the skills and equipment to properly execute lead abatement projects big and small. We offer a variety of abatement methods (abrasive blasting, vacuum blasting, vacuum shrouded power tool cleaning, waterjet cleaning, and chemical stripping), and have the experience to properly contain, remove, handle, and dispose of hazardous waste created during these projects. These projects, like all others, are carried out with the utmost consideration for the safety of our employees, the public, and the environment, as well as the protections of the owner's valuable asset.
Secondary Containment
Secondary containment helps prevent serious environmental problems from occurring because of tank releases. While the tank coating itself is vital to minimize the potential for leaks, secondary containment is an important safeguard.
With company environmental awareness, we are proud to offer secondary containment installation services. Our focus is to provide adaptability to various applications, shorten construction time, and cost effectiveness.
Internal Tube Cleaning
Park Derochie has developed a push/pull method to abrasive blast clean the inside of various sizes of tubes. This method employs a conventional abrasive blasting unit installed on one end exchanger and a VecLoader vacuum installed on the other. This allows Park Derochie to clean an exchanger while avoiding health and safety concerns for other contractors in the immediate area.
Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI)
At Park Derochie we offer a complete package to successfully manage your CUI issues. We have the capability, infrastructure, technology, experience and expertise to safely handle all client requirements. Through client partnerships, advance planning and engineered coating systems, we strive to fulfill your needs safer, faster, and less costly than any other coating contractor.
